i woulda too

Tonight's "beggar's night", as they call it here (and I hate that, it makes my fucking teeth hurt just to say it), was a total disappointment. My parents on one end of the subdivision got 16 kids and we got 3. Only one of the slew of the neighbor kids came, even.

Gee, good thing I put together all those bags with candy and spider rings and Big Boy coupons :(

Has eveybody welcomed our newest member Free PornHub ?

I'll make sure to welcome him when I see his first post. I hope no one beats me to it!

What is this? Some sort of pre-Halloween for the kids of parents to scared to let their kids out on Halloween?

Blazin' it up on halloweeeeeeeed

Awww. Banned already. :(

Ahhh, Chojin, you douche.

Infractitizing me for no reason.

:lol The big boy coupons, I almost forgot all about those. My neighborhood was completely dead, nothing like it used to be.

Yes, Beggar's Night is a stupid Ohio phenomenon. I fucking hate that name. It's usually the Thursday before Halloween, but sometimes it's the Saturday. I think it's their way of keeping little kids out of the way of asshole teenagers and nefarious types on Halloween proper.

I ended up giving the 13 year old kid next door like 10 bags of candy, and there are a good 15 left. I was so disappointed.

We live near a retirement village filled with cranky old people who hate kids. One end of our street is young grandparents (40s and 50s) who are into it, and the other end is full of po' folks who are into it but only for the taking part, not the giving. So all in all there weren't that many houses giving out treats.

Still, the baby got a pretty good haul for a baby. And we were telling people we didn't need candy.

Dare I ask what big boy coupons are?

Coupons to Big Boy.

They still have those up there?

You buy a strip of 8 big boy coupons for $1. Each coupon is good for one free kid's meal and they print the menu on the back so you can see what you want to redeem the coupon for. It's not a bad deal, although a kid might think you're ripping them off if you don't also give them candy.

$1 for 8 kids meals? :eek

Yeah. I have the feeling they're banking on the adults' entrees.

I would just eat two kids meals and have lunch for four days on $1. :lol

10 and under, says so on the coupon :)

What about my two sick kids back at the house?! >:

dine in only :(

:<

They do it for Valentine's Day, too.

The Girl in the Fireplace almost made me cry. :(

Yeah, I cry whenever the Doctor gets mindraped by French whores.
