Trick or Treaters

[Gully]

...had someone pounding on my door while I was sat eating my tea, don't think that was a kid trick or treating, at least it wasn't the cops, they would have just kicked it in.

Won't be answering the door, some local scrote kicked the wing mirror off my car the week before last so I am running a bit short on goodwill, if he hadn't then I would probably have spent some of the money it cost me to replace it on sweets to hand out.

 

[BUTTERBALL]

Just had a few around, definetely restocking in a minute!

 

[Basil Fawlty]

I just had another egg thrown at our window. f***ing C****

 

[El Presidente]

Had a few sets around this evening, all very polite, including one group of three sixth form girls in short red skirts and lickle devil horns, who were well worth a twatful of God's own juice. They all wished me a Happy Halloween and I gave them some chocolate starfish.

It's not an American import, it is custom in many countries, but has tended to be overshadowed in the UK by November 5th, until of course the large retailers saw an opportunity to boost their profits selling horror masks and large bags of sweets.

since when has ,Spiderman. cinderella and an alley cat had anything to do with Halloween!!??

Dressing up on Halloween isn't meant to be vampires/ghosts/witches, it's about dressing up to disguise yourself from bad spirits. So any costume will do. Plus I don't really want my kids dressed up as vampires/witches etc.

 

[Brighton TID]

its just glorified begging really

therefore, i tend to hand out cups of soup, especially if its cold, poor blighters

 

[sir danny cullip]

My brother has just come back with a MASSIVE bag full of various sugary delights!

 

[larus]

It's just begging.

It could also send the wrong message. Either give me something for nothing, or I'll do something nasty to you. Hmmm, that's a good example to give kids.

This thread is the best advert for forced sterilisation I have come across in a long time. Most of you should have been strangled at birth and the rest of you shot.

Well LI says its American and he's never wrong.

See my Chavez thread for details.

See my Chavez thread for details.

What a feeble excuse of a thread that is. You have a socialist leader rallying against abject poverty and horrendous disparity of income - yet some flippant remark where he suggests Venezuelans shouldn't mark Halloween because it is an American import that celebrates "a game of terror" somehow marks him out as a madman in the weirdly insane world of looney.

It's not exactly standing in front of a class of 7 year olds and writing "potatoe" is it? Then again, knowing your grasp of English literature, you probably don't know what I'm talking about there.

November 1st = Christmas Day for window cleaners. Egg-tastic!

I was actually pleasantly suprised by the four lots we had at our door last night. There's a fair few chavy teens round our way so was half expecting some twats round, but those that knocked were all young kids and had all made the effort to dress up, so I was quite happy to dish out some sweets. I think I'm going soft in my old age (27).

I can get you some knock off Viagra if that's the problem

 

[Gwylan]

We were a bit disappointed to get only two trick and treaters - we had a big basket of sweets (which Mrs Gwylan will now eat )

Kids of today...too lazy to go trick-or-treating...(mumbles incoherently).

BTW, it's not an American import - there's a long tradition of dressing up on Halloween, although it used to be called guising.

 

[Meade's Ball]

Some kids fired a rocket at my football team. It exploderised right next to me. I blame the subsequent momentary deafness for our 3-2 defeat.

 

[Gazwag]

We only had two lots last night, the first group said "Trick or Treat" and I replied "what if I say trick". They then looked at each other under their masks and the smallest one whispered "Where is it, its not in my bag". They shouted to mum and dad, who were out by the road that they had forgotton to bring the trick, and they just laughed.

 

[Eggmundo]

Kids had a great time last night, they were chuffed to bits with their booty.
In the 30 minutes I was actually in the house, only got 3 sets of Trick or Treaters, and they were little kids, not chavs so quite good all round.

All the moaners can start preparing for the carol singers now!

 

[¡Cereal Killer!]

If you had seen the girls who got on the 22 bus on Elm Grove going towards town today, I think you would be giving them more than sweets as a treat
