    Every year I somehow end up being the one who has to open the door and dish out sweets that I'd quite like to stuff myself with, to eat to kids I don't even know. Not this year. This year they'll all be getting this stuff :D

    Any other ideas ?!

    Yummy. The Krispie buns with coffee, gravy & pepper sound especially tasty.
    Be sure to make some of them.

    Very funny!

    Kids that call around to us can have apples, oranges and nuts... because thats what its all about.

    Ah, but then they egg your house. Well, some of them do anyway. I like the OPs idea though. It won't hit them what happened till they get home and by then they won't remember who gave them what sweets. Just don't give the little (4 -> 8 yr olds) the fake sweets. That's just mean.

    open the door and immediatly throw eggs at them

    Ah now. Did none of you's ever go trick or treating when ye were kiddies!

    Although I am tempted to dish out chipmunk food....

    I was thinking of also baking some "milk chocolate chip cookies" but involving a nice strong dose of a laxative(Though I don't know what happens to it once its baked) with gravy covered peas(coat them, let them dry, coat them again... repeat until there's no green visible) as the "chocolate chips"......could work.

    Yes because most people go on to lead such sucky adult lives that it's only fair to go and ruin a little bit of their childhoods. :rolleyes:

    Super Soaker 2000s are the only answer.
    For added nastiness add some cat wee.
    That'll teach the little monsters.

    :D

    Pigman II: I'm just talking about doing this stuff to the kids I don't know, the kids that I know sure I'll give them the normal stuff but you see, there's not a huge amount of kids in my area and every year we have absolute strangers coming, parking their cars up the road and bringing their kids along from house to house. Now THEY deserve what they get.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,921 ✭✭✭✭Pigman II


    They're still someones kids tho. Worse still tho I reckon it's being on the recieving end of harmless little pranks like this that start the ball rolling as regards turning them into adolescent nightmares and bitter adult bollixs. I'm sure I read somewhere that Hitler started off this way.

    I just eat all the sweets and leave only fruit, then word gets around and nobody bothers me. The best way to deal with it, IMO.

    The kids around my area will be getting the old 'blades in the apples' again this year! They don't call me ^CwAzY^ for nothing.. :eek:

    Put funsnap in with the popcorn, make concrete gingerbread men, make chocolate yoghurt and use raw chicken juice as the starter culture so they all get salmonella.

    How about "Come inside for a treat, children. I have a big lollipop in my pocket". Should have them running a mile. :D

    I think I may alter that a little i.e "Do you want to come inside for a treat? I've a very big lollipop in my pocket ;) " and use it on any hot mom that happens to be bringing their kids around.

    Trick or Treat?

    We didn't have any of that american stuff not so long ago...

    It was 'Help the Halloween party!'


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,440 ✭✭✭✭Piste


    Trick or treating is great, it's the one night where you can accept sweets from strangers. \0>


    Do the pranks to any little bollixes that give you trouble. They give you crap, you give them diarrhoea/salmonella. Fair exchange ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31,967 ✭✭✭✭Sarky


    I once went trick or treating to a local old folk's home dressed as the Grim Reaper. That was a great night, the elderly are really generous sometimes...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 771 ✭✭✭spiderlegs


    Ah just give sweets to the nice ones and fruit to the spoilt obnoxious feckers...

    Who in their right mind would accept candy off me.Luckily that is why we don't have to stock any \o/
