It's Friday and we survived another Halloween - even if my thighs feel another inch bigger after the binge on candy. But during out trick or treating we has several WTF moments.
Whoppers - seriously, who gives out these things? NOBODY likes them. NOBODY. I am tempted to egg your house for giving out handfuls of these. Perhaps you are a dentist and figure no one's going to eat them so you're saving teeth in a covert kind of way.
Warners - these are the great parents that say, "Watch out, someone is going to jump out from behind that tree." In my case, I worked hard to stay still holding that bucket of candy, waiting for them to get
close to jump up and offer candy. Who are you? The Lone Ranger? The whole point of Halloween is to scare people - and you ARE RUINING IT! Oh, and the next time you come, I'm hiding from you and scaring you FIRST!
Non dressers - no you do not look like a hoodlum. No you cannot get candy if you are dressed up as yourself. You may think you're pretty cool but no, it's not cutting it. Period.
Fun Size - this is the biggest WTF. Why do you call little bars the FUN size? They are not fun? They are little? They should be called the Torture Size? Or Starter Size because we all know you're going to eat the whole bag after that first Fun Size, right?
Wrappers - candy wrappers should be designed to spontaneously combust after 15 minutes when separated from the piece of candy. This would make a lot of Moms happy and not thinking, "WTF" when they come downstairs the next morning to a mess on the floor.
Do Gooders - seriously. It is Halloween. Give out candy. Floss? Apples? Pretzels (well, OK we did dip them in melted chocolate and eat them) Give us one day when we can indulge in sugar and not feel guilty. Plus you know everyone throws away the apples because of the possibility of razors in them.
Hope everyone had a great Halloween, I did. I scared a bunch of little children and in my world, that's awesome. Keep this list handy so you don't make any of these blunders next year.
What's your WTF for Halloween?
