What are you guys doing for Halloween? Any cool costumes!?
One of my kids decided to be a Pokemon card this year! They’d already found one of the custom card generator websites, so he designed the card, and we got that and an upscaled image of a pokemon card back printed, and slapped those on some foamboard with a ribbon harness!
He got a ton of compliments for it, he was very pleased with himself! Lot more adults than I expected recognized it right away, too
That’s a really cool costume!
That’s adorable! I love their creativity!
I get around 250+ trick or treaters every year. So I have 30lbs of candy ready, I might need another 10 or so. Maybe I’ll go get some of my favorites. You know just in case I need it.
Last year I barely had enough and only had like 5 pieces of candy at the end of the night. I had to wrestle my 16 year old to get into his stash the next day. It was so much easier to steal his candy when he was little. Little shits been hitting the weights this year as well.
250 trick or treaters!? I wish. I get maybe a dozen max. What’s the best costume so far?
Just staring here now. First 20 minutes her so only about 30. So far a little girl is dressed as odie and her brother is dressed at Garfield. She was happy because she got to lick her brother.
Omg hahaha its those little things in life that make it special
My wife was in a cow onesie and I was in all black with a foam ball secured to my shoe. It had the word “moon” on it. I’d hold my foot out and she’d jump over it. We were the cow jumps over the moon!
That is so clever and adorable! I would have gotten a huge kick out of it irl
Trying to not eat all the candy because there will be no children
Whats the candy status now?
No children but I only ate two Snickers. Twin will give the rest to coworkers because I can’t have any.
Dressing as an Aquabat, while my wife is a bat. Taking the 3 little neices trick or treating.
Hope you guys had a good candy haul!
Went out soon after the trick-or-treaters came out to go see what the neighbours display looks like at night. Luckily I don’t live right next to them.
Went to supermarkets to see how much halloween candy they have left, and if they’ve started discounting them… Looks like the shelves are still full (I can’t imagine how much stuff they have behind the scenes) and no discounts yet.
They don’t discount them any more around me and it breaks my heart. I used to live for those sale candies.
Went Trick or Treating in a new hometown with my family, had a great night, came home and put some candy in this uranium glass dish:
I’ve always wanted a piece of uranium glass. Its so ethereal and eerie
just horror movies and mostly in the background. so lame.
NOT LAME! That is the purest essence of Halloween!
watching apacalypse z for the first time as I missed it until the sequel showed up.
That’s a good one!
We’re just hanging out waiting for trick or treaters to show up.
We ended up not getting anything and now I’m bummed. I got a ton of sour warheads popping candy and magical color changing fundip. Oh woe whatever will I do with all this candy now!? 🍴
Ran into a snag that prevented me from going to a Halloween thing, so no plans.
I had planned on wearing my partial fursuit with a long sleeve shirt that had fake blood on it, a pair of dirtied jeans, and my old boot like shoes that are already pretty dirty and mangled from usage. You know, casual killer 3 eyed were-snow leapord. But now I don’t have a reason for it other than if I really wanna do it.
Eh plans fall apart all the time. I hope you ended up making the most of your evening anyway. That sounds like it would have been cool to show off
It wasn’t a big deal since it was just a college student government set up thing in the afternoon when most people would be done with classes. So not much lost by me not being able to attend.
Finished my Cosmic crow costume and I’m gonna be dancing to my customized Halloween playlist for 3 hours while I give out candy.
pft. that does not look like brandon lee at all.
You should also give out coins, bottlecaps and pieces of tinfoil.
Love the eyes!
Thank you!! It’s one of my favorite things about it ^^
Joining a big protest today and after that I’m just heading home for dinner and a cozy evening. I might watch some Halloween episodes of TV shows I like.
Me too!!
Stay safe, friend. :)
Hope you came back home safe today, comrade ! Happy halloween
I did, safe and sound, thank you. <3

Too late to sign up?
You people lead such interesting lives. Is this what the real world is like?
Wearing 12kg of armour, a stifling skull mask I can barely see in, and carrying a foam replica of the berserk sword. Going to follow my kid around and try not to die.
Your kid sounds like they’ll be well protected!!
I brought a foam replica of the sword from Berserk. I’m not sure anyone recognised it, but everyone liked it
You’ve described my essence. I never know what’s going on, but I love everything about what’s going on
Out with the girls, then we came back for toasted marshmallows over the firepit and a home brew. (see mo post in Dull Men’s Club)
The girls are all about to be off to bed - I doubt that there will be any sleep for a while yet though.
I wanted to toast marshmallows in the backyard but I couldn’t get my den clean on time and didn’t want people to walk through and see my yarn shame. (I got into a discount bin and it got out of hand)
This comment (namely, the age of “the girls” and why there won’t be sleep for a while) is awfully ambiguous for someone that did not see your previous post, especially with the home brews. Lol.
