Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Our wings are not tired.

Aww, hippocampus, may you soon be showered with candy and pics of cuteness.

We had somewhere around a billion kids. At this hour we are now getting the kids from miles away with parents crawling in cars collecting large barrels or trunks full of candy. At 8 PM I am turning out the lights. I don't mind the teens and all that, but the little kids that are driven miles by greedy parents, not so much. They still get candy, but I get to grumble to my internet friends.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

We ran out of candy and shut the lights a fee minutes ago.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I am hiding in the back room with all the lights out in the front of the house. BAH GHOSTBUGS! or something.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Me too, hiding.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

We got six t-o-ters and gave it up. We maybe could have had a few more, but the doorbells don't really work, so it was kind of a pain. One kid came as Donald Trump, "the scariest thing I could think of."

The last few years I haven't seen any trick or treaters on my block, and it was raining when I left work so I didn't even bring any candy home, and this is the year there are a few. So now I feel bad for having the light off, but I have nothing to give out. And, really, I've had enough of people today, even adorable small people in costumes.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

We got a bunch of trick or treaters, and gave out all our candy.

I haven't ever had any at my house, but am visiting my brother in law at the moment and we went out to dinner. Dunno if anyone came by earlier...but just after we got home at 9 someone was banging on the door and we were like "dang!" And he told the kid (tween) he didn't have any candy...but then I saw some dum dums sitting on the counter, so we gave him that. And then turned off the porch light!

I was mostly cleaned out by 8, left the rest in a bag with a note saying "you're the luckiest. All yours, from your neighbor on mystreet." Teen who got it, basically only a jersey as costume, still knocked on my door to tell me thanks and he liked the note. And his parents weren't even lurking on the sidewalk below!

Probably 100+ kids, emptied a drinktub full, maybe 5 big bags, but I do handfuls, not pieces. I'm that house.

Tip: skittles and nerds are major scores according to the under 13 set.
