Isn't it strange that we condition our children to never accept candy from strangers, and at Halloween, we send them out to collect candy from strangers?

My parents did this but always inspected the candy we (my sister and I) got afterwards. If it has any hole or rip in the slightest it was trash. We never ate all of it also, most was thrown out, not even if it was those wack knock off candies. Thrown out just because 'we don't need to have so much candy in the house'.

They could inject the candy with poison! :D

Not to make anyone paranoid.
 
Lol I was a bit sad the other day and was just sitting on the stairs in front of some building chilling and a lady was walking her dog and it had little socks on so I smiled at them and she walked over to me and said “have a lolly,” gave me a mentos and kept walking
 
It would be hard to find the tiny hole a syringe would make. :D

Use a magnifying glass?

Think I did ToT when I was a kid with some neighbor chica, glad I'm not growing up today when people do creepy things and poison candies n stuff.. ewww.

I wasn't allowed to participate in trick or treating as a child for this reason. My mother "doesn't believe" in Halloween.

It kind of backfired on her. Now I live like it's Halloween everyday. I've a ceramic skull sat in front of the TV right now with a tealight burning inside. The lights are off so it's glowing like a jack-o'-latern. 🎃
 
As long as the heat wave is gone, the hottest days in October are 80?F to 89?F. The coldest can be as low as 32?F.

There were a few days at the beginning of the month where it was around 85-95?F here in Ohio. I think that was a record temperature for October here.
 
Some question about the newer generations:

1. If they don’t want to learn math or science, why do they want free healthcare? People need to learn math and science if they want to become doctors, and there’s no way you can receive healthcare when there are no doctors.
2. If they don’t want to learn math or science, why do they become secular and less religious? You can’t believe in only science, yet learn very little of it and make no scientific contributions.
3. If they don’t want to learn math or science, why do they want to use the internet, smartphones, or computers? You can’t have computers or internet without technology, and you can’t have technology without math or science.
4. If they want internet, smartphones, and free healthcare, and want to become secular, then why do they not want to learn math or science? I don’t see how our newer generations would succeed if they want all of the above, and not math or science.
 
Yeah especially when the math calls for a 400$ visit to instead be 5,000$ due to over-inflation. Allowing your insurance to cover the actual bill, but making you a slave to the unnecessary remainder.

Who said that most of the newer gen doesn't want to learn math/science lol
 
People seem to like the aesthetics I make. Might start taking requests while I'm free
