Comment on When kids come trick-or-treating, what happens if I choose trick?

Had some kids at the door a few minutes ago. Your “trick or treat” is a bit longer and elaborate in our language here, and involves the word for “wallpaper paste” as it rhymes with our word for “ghosts”.
So I replied with “Wallpaper paste? I think I have a bucket in the basement, just a moment!” And turned around towards the stairs.
You should have seen their faces…

Sorry, can’t. I never sung it, and only heard it twice in my life.

You turned it around. Nice. OTOH I love to make kids happy. OTOH I knew the single group that came to my house last night and I know they’re plenty capable of mischief and I wish we still had traditions that really allow for that.

I, too, wanted to make them happy. They got a few handful of (good) sweets in their bag. But the look on their faces was priceless.
