[mumzy]

So you forgot it was Halloween but you went to a Halloween party?

If next year is like this year, I may not pass any candy out. For the first time in 18 years, I ran out of candy in a neighborhood where the majority of the "children" are now in High School or College. How could this be? Well, when I saw several van loads of kids get dropped off in front of my house and none of them spoke English, I kind of got a clue.

What the hell kind of title is this? I saw this and can't make heads or tails of it. So your know their home? What does this mean? Is this an angry trick or treater? My kids were writing better than that when they were 6. What a shlapper.

I know isn't it nuts Unincorporated? The stupid shit people worry about,,,

We nearly ran out. I did notice a lot of 'driveby' trick-or-treaters. since we do you have to be driven to do your trick -or-treating? We went through 13 bags of candy. We do have young kids but SO many cars were moving along with the kids I wonder if they were from outside our area?

It isn't nuts, it's candy. Candy mumzy! It's shlapolistic!

We had the van drop-offs in our neighborhood also. One van I saw at least 8 kids get out plus a few moms. They walked the entire block and the van came around and picked them up. The person who started this thread was probably some angry kids who got sick and tired of going to homes that no one was answering the door. When we were young and going trick or treating my dad told me to look for two things; 1. is the front door open? 2: are there cars in the driveway? What can you do, not everyone can afford six/seven bags of candy at $2.00 a bags- especially living in a 350,000 house in NL.

Your funny, Thank you for making me laugh.. Mumzy loves yah..

[Unincorporated]

Not everything has to be vitriolic. Does it Mumzy? I can be shlaptastic!

[laws]

since when is it a law you have to open your door and hand out candy?

the lady who keeps tabs on her neighbor (ordered a pizza at 5pm...etc) thats weird.

[joliet highway kids]

they went into pretzel's house and never came out!!

[Scary]

Yep, they went in that house at Halloween and got lost in the thousands of decorations which came out this weekend....no offense, but long live the Christmas Junkyard!! Totally a Christmas buzzkiller. Sorry.

[Only you]

First of all I don't keep tab on my neighbors, secondly if she is going to walk around, brag that she forgot to buy candy, wave to the neighbors when getting her mail and have a pizza delivered- kudos to her! But don't act dumb on Halloween and darken your house, and ignore the doorbell & knocking. I'm actually proud of her for ignoring the 100+ kids who trudged thru her landscaping and grass, who rang her doorbell and who had to brush against the cars lining up in her driveway to get to the next house! A few days ago she bitched because some of her mums on her porch were knocked over on Halloween and smashed and what kind of kids would do that? She even said her teenagers were mad because they wanted to hand out candy to the trick or treaters. What a great mom!

[Unincorporated]

I knocked over the mums in a fit of Halloween rage. Mumzy and I knocked the crap out of those mums, they didn't stand a chance. No candy huh? There go your mums, mum! Cheap broomrider should be ashamed.

[mumzy]

omg haha lmao yup here we come. I hope I get a free turkey this year..

Yikes!
No wonder she was locked inside her house, only coming out to get the mail and a pizza!

Sounds like a horrifying place to live, filled with hoards of children who haven't learned basic manners from their parents who are too busy keeping tabs on their neighbor's actions and posting their oh-so-outraged major life problems on the Interweb!

What's next, I wonder! Perhaps she'll hang inappropriate holiday decorations or *gasp!* neglect to display ANY AT ALL! Prepare to alert the media!

PS - most towns (and most halfway clued-in parents) tell their children that if the house is dark, with no porchlight on, don't visit that home. Not a difficult concept to grasp, beautiful in its simplicity. Pass the word to the 100+ kids in the neighborhood who seem to be unaware of the concept so next year you won't have to be a-frettin'.

[iamme]

What I found most amusing about this thread is the fact that people are so mad about the kids not getting candy from neighbors. Why dont you just buy your kids candy and shut it? Mind your own business.

[Unincorporated]

iamme, by coming onto this board YOU are sticking your nose into someone's business. If you don't like what's said, tough. Can you see you're doing exactly what you don't want others to do?. Your brain is the size of a candy corn. I've seen the X-rays, they're pathetic. Shlap yerself, ya shlapaholic.
