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.
|
|
Pfft. A REAL horrible person would have given out alcohol and pornography to the children.
|
|
Well first off is your roomate a guy, secondly wtf are you doing with him with the lights off
|
|
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." |
|
|
Now that's just fucked up |
||
|
dammit <shuffles off to buy candy instead> |
|
|
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.
|
|
Just hand out buckets of ammo, we all know where we are going trick or treating tonight |
|
|
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. |
|
|
If any kids comes to an apartment complex that only rents single bedroom units I'll smack their dead beat parents.
Pff.... I could hand out ammo One for you, one for you... |
|
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 enjoy seeing all the little kids in their costumes. It brings back some great memories.
|
|
Holy crap... if the whole world were like ARFcom, half the houses kids went to wouldn't have any candy.
7 yes 5 no 15 I'm doing the same thing. 8 I've done that in the past. |
|
but the kids would have loved it |
|
|

|
|
"Aww, I don't have any candy. But here's a few rounds of assualt rifle ammo."
|
|
Dude, you're gonna get egged.
ETA, Double tap. Looks like at least 2 eggs inbound. |
|
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. |
|
Dude, you're gonna get egged. |
|
|
So you've been to my house. |
|
|
This is where the "Old Razor Blade in the Apple" comes in handy |
|
|
I just ran out. 7 Bags...I'm in the dark surfing arfcom.
BUT, unlike the men doing it, I am not looking at the BOTD threads. |
|
I have a few thousand loose bullets for reloading
can I use them instead of candy? |
|
Well... last night someone smeared a candle or something all over my windshield, and I had to scrape off all the wax... though, I was relieved it was just wax, and not an egg or something. |

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.... |

|
I forgot to get any candy, but in the last 7 or so years I've lived here no one has ever come so it's not a big deal
just less junk food for me to eat later |
|
So what you're saying is...it was about 2.5 gallons worth? |
|
|
My neighbors across the street are doing the same thing, and I know damn well they're there ... I've got half a mind to lob an egg over there myself. Stingy bastages.
|
|
We're not Hallowscrooges....we care about thier teeth. Yeah, that's it. Do it for the children! |
|
|
Yes you are, while sipping a Long Island Tea. |
|
|
Uh Oh.
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. |
|
A lady up my street passes out those travel size tubes of toothepaste to everyone. She must have hundreds of them. No wonder she's a single mom. |

|
You didn't mention wheather YOUR lights are on |
|
|
last year i forgot candy, so all the kids got elk jerky instead.
lucky kids |
|
What calibers do you have????? Need some 308 and 5.56 Got any???? |
|
|
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 was just today talking to the wife about where Halloween has gone nowadays. It's nothing like when I was a kid (50's). I think I understand now.
|
|
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. |
|
Not just for that, I'm sure there are plenty of others reasons.
