Thread: Pet peeves involving Halloween.

Tweet

I live in a small town in northeast iowa and i cant remember the last year the weather was crappy. i'm 25 and even when i was a kid it always seemed like the weather was perfect- what gets me is having to take my own children trick or treating in broad daylight. i know that parents are worried but wasnt it awsome when you were a kid, trick or treating till 10 at night. those were the days.

I HATE snot nosed teenagers! That think they are to cool for a costume or that just talk a lot smack on my work.... you know " oh this sucks it's not even scary.... You want to scary keep messing with me you little bass-turd you will see SCARY!!!!
Bad Weather.. even though I have no control over it!!
And the neighbor that weed wacked down decorations and our pumpkin plant last year!!

Hmmm...I don't like that we can't get an extension cord out to our tree in the front yard to light it up with purple. Other than that, I'm grateful for every soul-refreshing treat that Halloween brings to me.

OOhhh I don't think anyone likes the annoying teens, not even the other patrons. I wish there was an eject button somewhere on the grounds. LOL

I don't like that most props in the store are soooo expensive and look like they could fall apart any minute.

I don't like that most people think if you love Halloween, you must be into all things werid and macabe. (No I don't want to see your surgrey video and no I don't watch Twlight)

Trying to find Spirit Stores...last year there was only one near me...the year before that we had one on every corner.

Trying to plan your halloween party around everyone else's halloween party

Rain the week of.

- Living in an Apartment! No tots, no real decorations, nothing!

- Having friends who aren't really big on Halloween. Nobody ever wants to have a party!

- Tots who don't wear costumes! Even if you don't have much money, you could at least think of something creative!

- People who don't really think about their decorations and don't get creative. Just tossing a plastic tree on your door doesn't count as Halloween Spirit.

- and even though I still am one for a few more months, Teenagers!

- Women who think Halloween is just an excuse to wear next to no clothing!

late night teenager boys in white shirt with a tiny rip in it with 10 other people trying to get candy

-wind
-rain
-to cold
-not enough tot
-cheap made costumes that rip
-not enough $$$ for me to spend
-stuff blowing over
-daylight savings time

The van loads of familiy that drive around from neigborhood to neigborhood with giant pillow cases and no costumes, parents are also holding open their pillow case, I mean really?

They aren't eating this candy, I figure they are reselling it somehow.

I don't mind the cutsy comstumes on the little ones, I have a 6 year old and 4 year old daughters, they are into all things princess, so you really can't get away from that, although this year my oldest wants to be a "skeleton bride", right on!

I tired the "no costume no candy", but they end up stealing your decorations if you don't give them candy.

No matter, I still remember my Halloweens growing up and what it ment to me then, I figure if I give up I'm stealing away somone else's Halloween memory. Most TOT are great, polite and really enjoy the experince. The bad apples are irrelevent and I brush it off.
