Damn dude, doesn’t even go till his kids say they’re cold. Why get a late bedtime on a holiday?
Growing up we always stayed out extra late on Halloween, even as a young child. An im not that old either.
Comment on Most of the trick-or-treaters have been skipping my house, and I finally figured out why

You get between 5-730 in a lot of neighborhoods to do trick or treating. It’s a school night. I’m not spending a cumulative extra 30 minutes of my time watching my kid stand by the door so your old ass can slide off the couch and mosey over to the door and slowly talk to my kids individually about their costumes. And by some weird extension try to make small talk with me or a parent.
If your lonely, go to a bar. I’m trying to run these street with my kids and make some real candy profit.
Just put the fries in the bag, dude.

My kids are younger. I’ve been doing this long enough to know which houses are going to spend time on each kid. Which is fine…except my kids and the neighbor kids I was walking through our neighborhood did have time for that.

Oh, don’t you worry your sweet little head, we will.

If you just want a bunch of candy, go to Walmart.

Okay. Or…my kids are walking around with a gaggle of neighbors and we are all socializing. And then we have to go “that one guys house” where we sit and watch as he wastes 10 minutes while we’re 2 miles deep into a neighborhood. And kids have finite energy.

Ohhhh nOOO ten minutes???
Just drop your poor kid off with one of his friends and stay home yourself, you sound like you ruin everyone’s good time all the time.

Nope we had a great time. And they’re 7 and 10. Old enough to not want to bother walking all the way up to a door and waiting.

But if you don’t get the amount of candy you want in the end (and even with a slow pace my kids have always had more candy than they could ever finish), just buy some more. Who cares about the excess of candy?

Because it’s the experience my kids want. And they don’t just “go buy more candy” considering their 10 and 7.
