Too funny. Throw in some pennies, too. The most useless item of money there is. Take that LBWWMTDASADFFIHAOTAC!

Oh no, I vote that the LBWWMTDASADFFIHAOTAC gets a toothbrush.

I’m taking all votes from now until Halloween night–what does the LBWWMTDASADFFIHAOTAC get in his trick-or-treating bag?

My favourite house growing up was the one who gave a single walnut in a shell to every child. Seriously? A walnut? I aspire to be the walnut lady of the neighbourhood. The one imbedded in every child’s Halloween memories. The crazy neighbourhood lady who gave the most useless item in the bag.

I was going to say an apple, but then I read your walnut comment and I think this kid deserves that!1

My vote’s for a piece of unwrapped ribbon candy.

With lint on it.

I hate Halloween. It’s not a religious thing. i just don’t dig it.

I don’t like giving out candy. It’s expensive and I don’t want to be the lady in teh neighborhood who gives out the cheap crap.

So I leave the porch lights off and close the blinds, hoping people get the hint. Some people don’t. So I have to open the door and educate them.

No wonder G*d hasn’t allowed me to have children.

I vote to take any dead insect and coat it in cheap melted chocolate. Chocolate covered insects — breakfast of champions.

well what if LBWWMTDASADFFIHAOTAC likes raisins? then what?

I say a toothbrush or pennies, because that will most definately NOT be his first choice.

oh I don’t like halloween either, mostly it’s because I hate anything scary but lately it’s been because I just can’t see all those cute kids at my door mocking my IF. I really need to “grow up” right?

A cricket! (Preferably a smushed one.)

I like the walnut idea.

You could give him a rubber band, too. 🙂

floss.

11 SmarshyBoy { 10.03.06 at 1:25 pm }

I think it should be a dead cricket. Or, better yet, a fake rubber one, so that when looks at it he freaks out and messes himself.

I had considered the dead-cricket-inside-a-candy-wrapper, but knew that would turn me off to mini snickers bars for the rest of my life.

Questions:

Julie–unwrapped ribbon candy–is this aforementioned ribbon candy left over from last Christmas? I have a candy cane still in the pantry. Provided I unwrap it and leave it in my pocket for the next two weeks, I think it could suffice.

Lutherliz–is the floss of the dental variety? What do you think of “used” floss? From my garbage bin?

Serentity–it could be a walnut OR a rubberband. But walnut + rubberband equals broken window. I know this because it was the fate of the walnut house back in my old neighbourhood.

I recently found a half-sucked dum-dum lollipop stuck in the onion bin (rewrapped, of course, in its original cover). I’m adding it to the mix.
