If You Don't Want Trick-O-Treaters

Hold a sign saying.

"Kids, give all your candy to your parents, they don't know its all GMO they feed you."

 

I tried to get the neighbors to rally together and do something fun and exciting to keep the kids in the neighborhood. A couple of us grandparent aged people said we'd be willing to do whatever.

The parents of the kids didn't even answer the post I sent out.

The parents load the kids up, drive them to church events and then stop by the "rich" neighborhoods on the way home.

It's sad.

The year before last we had about thirty kids.

Last year, I walked the streets in costume trying to flag kids down to my house.

One of my neighbors begged me to bring the grandkids by when they got home from the rich neighborhoods. They were the only ones that came to her house and they got about 6 full size candy bars each...even the grandkids' cousins who were in town for Halloween.

I give up.

I'm going somewhere on Halloween...like a movie or something.

 

i wish there were better and more frequent occasions for costuming then having to be pretend scary having to be the idea behind it.

i wish every season had a holy day about wearing you own imagination.

 

I've been noticing this trend for a few years. I don't live in a rich area but the people who live in the area with all the apartments seems to be hitting our neighborhood. It's not a big deal to me though. Just give them the candy. It's just candy and it's for the kids.

 

it may have something to do with the kind of places i've lived, but far from getting unwanted trick or treaters, i've rather rarely gotten any. i always buy like hersheys miniatures or something like that to have on hand in case they show up, but most years, i almost always end up eating them in the days afterwards, myself.

 

It would be awesome to eat some Reese's Pieces or some Skittles. I bet I haven't eaten those things in the last 15 years. I am a terrible person!! I would eat some Skittles right now if I had them.

 

We should do alternative trick or treating where we dress up and deliver the candy early in the morning before they go to trunk or treat at the churches.

I can't believe that church stole Halloween.

 

I am pretty sure that is what happens here. I have lived in this apartment building for 25 years and the first year (1990) was the only year I had anyone knock on the door. They were people who lived in the building. I am sure that now they drive to a better part of town and or go to events that are during the day. Too bad that sick people putting needles in apples etc. ruined it for kids these days.

Our building now has a lock on the doors and so unless someone props the doors open kids could not get in in any case.

 

This makes me want to carve a pumpkin. I think I just might

 

[SIZE=10pt]I won’t be home on Halloween night to distribute candy to all the little ghosts and goblins so I’ve decided to leave a note. Which note should I leave? [/SIZE]

[SIZE=10pt]Trick or treat! Please take one. Happy Halloween![/SIZE]

[SIZE=10pt]Or, [/SIZE]

[SIZE=10pt]For those of you in the neighborhood who don’t like black people, fuck you. I know you talk about me behind my back (I have a few confidential informants) who keep me apprised of all the latest gossip. Go right ahead and talk about how I never attended the annual block party, seem to date only white women, or how I supposedly bring down the property value in the neighborhood despite that fact that I keep my house well maintained. Go right ahead and think lesser of me, and while you do, please enjoy this selection of fine candies. Please limit yourself to one each and ignore the empty bottle of rat poison in the white recycle bin - tomorrow is after all trash pickup day. [/SIZE]
