That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I have Kit-Kats, and Mounds, and 100 Grands, and...

DX has good candy.

I have some tootsie rolls, but they are all for me. I've never had a single trick or treater here.

I get bummed at Halloween. The last apartment I had and this condo have security locked doors, so we never get trick or treaters. I'm a deprived person, no cuteness for me! However, I still have candy.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, the cutest thing I saw on my way home: A little tiny kid in a stroller, all wrapped up in blanket, but with Spider-Man legs sticking out.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I had this man come to my door with his little child (he was about 3 I think):

"excuse me, my son is allergic to chocolate, can he have the suckers?"

Has a preacher ever actually won the Darwin Awards while exercising his pastoral duties before?

Dear Low Twentysomething Who Works In The Microbiology Lab Down The Hall:

Wah! This is me. By accident, but ALL THE TIME. And I don't wear tiny tiny underwear, I tend towards big ol' boxers, but still. I just have no hips to speak of, and even when I wear a tight belt, there tends to be slippage throughout the day. Long story short, pretty much everyone I know is more acquainted with my crack than either they or I would be happy with.

Good question. How do they choose those anyway? Do people nominate candidates or do the originators just scan the newspapers for stupid people tricks?

OK, so guess who saw me out on the balcony and started wailing?

Yup, Miss Tortiepants.

So of course, I had to go down and give her a lap and lots of petting.

@@-> self.

She's now on the stoop, staring up at my balcony. Dude, bring your kid, I'll kidnap you both and subject you to all sorts of feline torture take you to a vet in a car and get you all fixed up and find homes.
