Halloween Ponderings

10/30/2010 Ponderings:

1. You know you are in a fun city when your playing a game Seattle or Halloween and your usually not sure of your answer.

2. Type of Candy you give out reveals your Halloween personality- Ask somebody kind of candy they are giving out for trick or treat and you will learn a lot about them.
Here are the categories and insights:
A. "Huh Halloween? O crap." - Never remembers any holiday and will most likely be handing out pencils or apples when kids ring doorbell.
B. "I will not be home." - Doesn't enjoy interacting with kids and will rather spend time hiding at gym than buying and handing out candy. If someone can guilt this person into giving candy then there will be a box of candy outside the house and the person will keep the lights off.
C. ' I need to go on a Grocery Store Trip" - This person wants to celebrate Halloween and will make sure to grab some candy from the grocery store but will most likely have a non-creative Costume Store costume.
D. " I am handing out the rejects from my trick or treating last year" - This is someone who understands the joys of trick or treating being able to get free candy and then being able to hand out the stuff you don't like next year.
E."Bought several bags full of candy" - These people have carved pumpkins outside, tons of Halloween decorations and are known as the hot spots for trick or treating.


3. Trick or treating is really fun. Why do people stop trick or treating when they get older? Everybody should continue trick or treating.

4. On Halloween look around at other people's costumes and find one you like or use them to think of an idea of your own. Then the day after haloween buy your next year's costume and candy. You may not want to trick or treat at my house.

5. What is proper etiquette for repeating costumes? If you decide to go big and be Gene Simmons for example from Kiss that requires a lot of work and probably money. Next year are you allowed to bring this back? What should be the rules? My opinion is you are allowed to repeat if new crowd, if you become known for that costume, if you build something more onto the costume, or if it has been 3 years.
