I just feel like it isn't really big or sturdy enough. Also: no effort went into the trick/treat bag at all.
At least use an old pillowcase. I thought that was the default. Isn't it?
She's terse. I can be terse. Once in flight school, I was laconic.

What's wrong with a brown paper lunch bag for trick or treat
I'm assuming that was the full extent of the costume.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
no effort went into the trick/treat bag at all.
Yeah, I guess I just don't see the bag as important enough to make an effort for. I mean, I'd rather a kid used something they already had than buying some cheap plastic pumpkin at Target the night before.
[eta: Oh, if that was the entire costume then that's a problem. ]

I might be wrong, but I have seen it happen.

Because books.
The trend here with the tweens and teens is apparently to wear your backpack backward, open, and slap on some kind of makeup or a mask. I'm unamused.
The little ones are, of course, adorable.

My rule is that if they don't have a costume, they have to tell me a Halloween joke or riddle AND I mock them for no costume. Because I am mean.
Photo of my Halloween outfit is over in FB/on Tumblr for those who want to see.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I've been at a "motivational" conference all day, which is a thinly veiled shill for get rich quick schemes interspersed with legit speakers. Why, Colin Powell, why? I think I'm going to skip Bill Cosby and just go home.

Why, Colin Powell, why?
He should have asked himself that about eleven years ago.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I always feel bad when people talk about hs age tric or treaters. I totally tric or treated even when I was in college. Granted, we did it as a Drama Club activity, and I too over drama club when I graduated, so it was more about sharing info re: our upcoming play than Candy grabbing. And the same group went caroling every year.
I sometimes look at my young self- I thought I was so unhappy, but I had the energy to plan all these things for large groups of people that I would still love to do, but I haven't the energy.
