My roommates and I didn't buy any candy and we're hiding inside in the dark... pretending we're not home.

ETA: Last year, I lived on a different street, in the same area... a bit further from my college campus.  I was the only one in the house that bought candy and it was gone in less than 30 minutes.  I bought so much candy I thought I'd be finishing the rest for months, it was about half a five gallon bucket worth.  I've never seen so many kids in my life than in this city.

I bought candy today too, but I'll be damned if I am getting up every 3 minutes all night.

Of course not.

If I were you, I'd be out on the porch eating a huge bag of candy, with a sign that said "No Trick-or-Treaters."

I thought about buying some, but I have $200 in my checking account, $200 in my wallet and $544 on my credit card... all to last me two more months.  I have to start selling ammo stockpiles.

Don't worry... that's next.  Though I complain I'm broke, I always make it to the bar every Tuesday for $3 pitchers... Thursday is $1 pitchers, but I have class the next day at 10:20, so I don't do that one.

I live in a pretty nice neighborhood and we get hit so hard by the Ghetto kids, they don't say thank you or even trick or treat for that matter.  They just hold out an old stained up pillow case and and stare at you like, "Jus put da candy in da bag Kraka!".

Screw'em let them get their free candy somewhere else.

I didn't even bother to turn the lights out; they just came a few minutes ago ansd simply said:

"I don't have any candy; sorry"

They left and my car hasn't been egged yet; but then again, I have two NRA decals on my car and a "Thin Blue Line" decal as well; so they better not egg my car.

Whatever... like you'd part with a beer!

Beerslayer places beer in 8 year olds bag... kid gives him a look like he's crazy... turns and starts to walk down the drive way.... in a moment of panic TBS charges down the driveway, cross body tackles the 8 year old and takes his beer back... gets up and stumbles back to the house mumbling something about almost losing that one....

We're down to our last few candies.  I may have to break into my last bag deep stash of 100 grand bars.

Maybe, I'll preform an experiment and see if anybody goes for the Capri Sun drinks or the Minute Maid juice boxes.

Forget that.  Apparently I'm not a horrible person.  I asked the German exchange students two doors down if they had any trick or treaters and they said they didn't have a single one!  I didn't need to hide in the dark afterall.

I guess there's a neighborhood thing where they avoid what they're pretty sure are the student houses... they must know were're cheap... though, the German exchange students seemed to want to see what this Halloween shit was all about.

I have two large German Sheps. that roam the property on Halloween. I always tell my friends if they bring the kids over I will open the gate and let the dogs roam the neighborhood.

That should give the little brats a scare.
