I have a follow-up Halloween question: does anybody hand out candy to trick-or-treaters?

Halloween isn't a big Brazil yet, but it's growing. A few years ago some trick-or-treaters knocked on our door asking for candy but we didn't expect to have any kids come knocking and were unprepared. Poor kids, they were very disappointed and we felt bad we didn't have candy to give.

Every Halloween, I sit outside my door, pass out candy to the children, and listen to Metallica. For hours.

Very festive, Davin.

I'm just looking forward to handing out candy to the little kids and the surly teens. That's my favorite part of Halloween. That and the scary movies.

After I saw that picture and before I read your post I was sure you were going to say something like "I used to celebrate Halloween, but nevermore"

:rofl:  Too clever by half.

I have a follow-up Halloween question: does anybody hand out candy to trick-or-treaters? 

I like handing out candy to trick-or-treaters. It only lasts about three hours.
Always question all authorities because the authority you don't question is the most dangerous... except me, never question me.

This sounds delightful. And no, I'm not being sarcastic.

It does sound delightful. I'm not sure about the Metallica though?

I'm getting better. Question words still trip me up and I need to drill A LOT more than I am.

Você tem amigos aqui  ;D Though it can be difficult to go trick-or-treating with online friends.  :P

Even if it's not a perfect translation of what you want to say, it's another structurally perfect sentence. Like music to my ears... :tellmemore:

Well, I'll be. An educational thread masquerading as a fun and games thread.

All hail Argentium, master of the halloweening.

A local bar is doing a Halloween drag show and is having a costume contest so for the first time in my adult life I'll actually be dressing up for Halloween. Should be exciting.
Strange but not a stranger<br /><br />I love my car more than I love most people.
