I just had 2 minature ISIS fighters come to the door.

[Aerows]

LOL. I thought it was in poor taste, but gave them candy anyway. The other kids that have come by have all been precious.

[Scootaloo]

1. Eh, just think of it as a modern-day take on the pirate

On the bus today i had a nice conversation with Hermoine Granger, Velma from Scooby Doo, and a bag of M&M's (A girl wearing a garbage bag with eminem's face glued all over it)

[Aerows]

6. LMAO - Bag of M&M's

That's great!

[wheniwasincongress]

28. genius Eminem costume!

[gollygee]

2. I had a large number of Elsas

Elsas everywhere.

[Aerows]

7. Yep, I've had an Elsa, too

LMAO.

[JeffHead]

22. I guess it's a thing now.

[wheniwasincongress]

29. We've had one Elsa (out of like 10 knocks on the door)

her dress lit up and played that song.

[malaise]

3. You're having a great time

Nice that you bought candy for the kids

[Aerows]

5. I really am

It's hilarious some of their costumes. I just had a flock of zombies LOL.

[Brigid]

4. If I were a parent . . .

and my kid wanted to create an ISIS costume for Halloween, I would ask him if he knew who they were and what they were about. And I wouldn't permit it.

[Aerows]

8. It was really questionable, IMHO

The parents were watching them. I thought it was a bit tacky. Then you have the parents video taping every single door they ring LOL . The little flock of zombies were hilarious.

[Brigid]

11. Little zombies!

[Scootaloo]

31. They're the fucking worst

Especially since they can fit through one-block spaces. And they hit HARD.



Run you fool!

[JI7]

50. it was most likely the parents idea

[Texasgal]

9. I have had a power ranger

and lots of "frozen" little girls. So far so good!

[Aerows]

10. I had a little Pippi Longstocking

She was adorable!

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

12. I got a Dalek. It was brilliant.

[Aerows]

13. That's awesome!

[Codeine]

26. My little boy was the 10th Doctor last year, while his sister was the 11th.

This year he's Daryl Dixon and she's a really hideous zombie -- seriously, her mom learned a bunch of great tricks and techniques for liquid latex and created a truly frightening undead mess.

[Aerows]

35. That's awesome!

I love seeing the kids costumes.

[Brigid]

14. I live in a condo building.

No trick or treaters because they can't get in.

[Aerows]

16. :(

It's so neat to see all the costumes the kids wear.

[Aerows]

17. LOL

It was tacky, but they were little kids, couldn't be more than 8 or 9. Just because they have stupid parents with no regard for decency doesn't mean I'll mistreat the children.

[AnalystInParadise]

46. Meh

I have seen kids dressed up like Jeffrey Dahmer before and like Charleton Heston, as head of the NRA, it's Halloween, taste and common sense are not often seen on this night.

[Scootaloo]

20. I SHOULD feel bad for laughing...

But I don't

[msanthrope]

66. I get it. That was ghoulish humor. nt

[LiberalElite]

18. Well, ISIS is scary, no? nt

[flamingdem]

21. Yay, somebody gets it

[LiberalElite]

23. .

[NutmegYankee]

19. I was dressed as ISIS or a terrorist, handing out candy at the door

I had a green Keffiyeh wrapped around my face. Considering how rainy and cold it was, it was actually quite comfortable. I think most kids thought I was a ninja.

[Texasgal]

24. We have clear weather

although slightly cool...60's... why am am I seeing parents DRIVING the kids from house to house? I live in the city limits and it is not snowing, icing or raining!

ARRRG!

[TBF]

25. Several Elsas so far ... nt

[Cleita]

27. Blame the parents, not the kids.

I hope the parents of the Americans that were beheaded don't get those kids trick or treating at their doors.

[Aerows]

34. I don't blame the kids

I gave them the same amount of candy I gave all the others. I just thought it was in very poor taste.

[Cleita]

51. I know you didn't. I just wanted to agree with you that it was in poor taste. n/t

[Aerows]

53. It really was, IMHO

Oh well, takes all kinds to make a world.

[wheniwasincongress]

30. We had a boy dressed similar to Zorro

I said "Hey, it's Zorro!" and his mom laughed and said "She called you Zorro!" He had some sort of makeup over his entire face, no mask. Does anyone know what he was? something from a movie?

[Shrike47]

32. Zorro the Fox! Hero of Spanish California days, by day a mild mannered fop, by night he fights!

There was a television show and movies.

Zorro has a sword and 'makes the sign of the Z' by cutting your shirt if you're the bad guy.

[Brigid]

39. Antonio Banderas!

[SomethingFishy]

33. We have had very few kids... seem to be less and less every year,

when I was young there were hundreds of kids in the streets. We'd go out for hours and hours...

I'm wondering if one of my kids is scaring them away so they can keep all the candy for themselves.

[pinboy3niner]

36. They just wanted to get ahead

[Aerows]

37. LOL

OMG that one was bad! But hilarious

[Brigid]

38. !!!!

[stevenleser]

42. Once again, I would like to steal another of your hilarious posts! nt

[rug]

40. They should have gone with the Headless Horseman.

[Fla Dem]

41. Sad thing is the little tykes probably don't even know what they represent. It's all

For the parents preverted amusement.

[woo me with science]

43. Let's see...

We had:

A tough motorcycle guy with leather jacket, helmet, and Harley Davidson paraphernalia

Three elegant and sparkling princesses, one of whom had fairy wings

Two raggedy old men

An adult black cat with an infant black cat, both with black noses, whiskers, and tails

An spooky preschool witch with big floppy hat, crepe dress, and candy corn stockings

A gigantic Coke bottle

Something that was striped from head to toe

A pink bunny

[Aerows]

47. I had a witch, too

She was the cutest thing I've ever seen. Well, the little zombie boy was adorable, too .

[chrisa]

44. Did you pay them 100 Grand?

[Aerows]

45. OMG, I did!

I LOVED those as a kid and got a bag of those for them . They also got Kit Kats and Reese's Peanut Butter cups!

[SoapBox]

48. We've had some really cute little princesses and super hero's...

And some that were too big and really creepy.

They've been coming for 2 hours but only about 50 so far...SoCal, dry yet but expecting rain later.

[Aerows]

49. I think a few groups came by twice

because I give out the good stuff. Can't be sure, but the zombies looked awfully familiar ...

[ctaylors6]

52. Hermione was surprised I knew who she was

She seemed unsure what to think when I told her I love the harry potter books. But I gave her extra candy and she came back later with different people.

I had LOTS of zombies.

Being in Dallas, I was surprised we only had a few medical/hazmat costumes.

[Aerows]

54. LMAO

That's hilarious, hazmat costumes. Didn't get any of those. That would have been funny, though!

[ctaylors6]

60. you should check this out ...

[Retrograde]

55. We've had 2 Legos, a Rubik's cube, lots of cats and princesses

various turtles, wizards, witches, zombies, a clown and cowboy pair, and lots that I couldn't identify.

[Aerows]

57. A Rubik's cube

[Spitfire of ATJ]

56. I had a few ebola patients....

Blood coming out of their ears, nose and eyes, hospital gowns and thermometers.

[Aerows]

58. LOL!

They get funnier every year. I love Halloween.

[Aerows]

59. I hope this doesn't offend anyone, but it's a side-splittingly funny costume

[flamingdem]

61. Kitteh Foo Young

[Aerows]

62. I nearly died laughing when I saw that

I love Halloween

[sadoldgirl]

63. Whether it is ISIS or Ebola,

it shows that a lot of parents do not understand the issues.
How many of us are a) involved with the fight against ISIS, and b) have a contact with the medical workers involved with Ebola.

The fear has been pushed up, but the understanding is sadly missing.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

64. Actually, I feel it's a comment on how the media has overblown the fear.

[ZombieHorde]

65. Ha!

Halloween should be distasteful, in my opinion.

[Oktober]

67. Unless you are hanging scarecrows with stuffed black leaf bags...

... Or so it seems.

[Shankapotomus]

68. Just hope they don't knock on the wrong door

Getting a house with an overseas relative who was a victim of ISIS would be awkward, wouldn't it now?
