I've always gotten by with just saying Happy Halloween and/or "Ok, it's two for each" etc.

Halloween is just an annoying chore for me, having to constantly get up and go give out candy over a 4 or 5 hour period. It's a little disconcerting when suddenly you realize "Oh shit, I'm running low on candy" and then the next trick or treaters is a group of like fucking 6 kids with their parents with flashlights farther back up the driveway, which basically obligates you to not be a dick to the kids (aka give them lots of candy) lest you possibly want the locals saying you're a stingy ass etc.

Worse yet is that I have a huge midterm tomorrow and my prime studying period will be periodically interrupted by those goddamn kids.

If anyone somewhat resembles a Touhou (I assume it's unintentional but I've seen some near-Marisa looking outfits before) they get a double candy bonus for incidentally having a fucking kick ass costume. Any really fucking awesome costumes get double-candy from me actually, but it's rare to see something really good/creative.

BEST HALLOWEEN EVER

>> No.6377801

>>6377715

You can always get a midsize pumpkin for a couple of bucks and carve it out. I guess it's kind of too late now, but there's always next year etc.

Carving pumpkins is fun actually, because you can carve out Touhous or whatever the fuck you want on them yet it will still satisfy the expectation to have some Halloween stuff around your house.

For a few years I used to sneer at those people who spend hundreds on Halloween shit taking over their entire front yard, but on the other hand, I remember how much fun those houses were when I was a kid, and so I accept that some people go through great efforts to keep the spirit up. Compared to all other holidays out there, Halloween is only second to Christmas as best Western tradition. It's easy to think "damn, we have zero culture compared to Asians" but then you see that Japanese are highly amused by Halloween and Christmas (and yet utterly fail at celebrating them properly) and realize, hey, we still do have strong traces of our heritage, much less a motherfucking night of the undead, directly tied back to our pagan/Celtic roots. Few other cultures can brag of having such a damn cool holiday.

If I ever end up doing that (unwise) strategy of just leaving a large basket of candy outside, I'd mix the CDs in there. That way I'm not involved directly and they can just leave them there if they want.

Any kid who raids the whole basket (which I half-assume will happen within 20 mins of me putting it outside) will thus perhaps (however small the chance) get hooked on Touhou in revenge.

After all, if I went and emptied a whole basket and got like 20 CDs to boot, I'd be at least curious to see what the fuck was on them before I toss them. And so it begins.

Strange that you get people egging on Halloween and not the night before. Around here (rural Pennsylvania) the night before is called "Mischief Night" and basically angsty teens have free reign and run around egging things, TP'ing shit, and so on.

Halloween, kids are actually way more well behaved.

You, sir, will make a smart parent.

Sorry I'm not a psychopath who would homeschool their kids and keep them locked up all day. They need to interact with other people. Just not with total strangers, at night.

Obviously a responsible parent will meet with the parents of their childrens' friends and also with their teachers, to verify they are legit. Will that guarantee 100% that they are safe? No. You can't prevent danger but you can minimize it.
