Trick or Treat?
Hey, all! It’s your friends Yeti (the Lumberjack) and S’mores (the S’more, of course.) We’ve had another terrific Halloween filled with candy and surprises. For those of you new to this “get free treats from the neighbors scam,” we’ve provided the following reminders.
Get bags or buckets or barrels to carry your stash of candy.
Get some friends together and come up with costumes. It helps to have a group because than you have more candy. Also, you can “persuade” your friends to give you all the best treats by convincing them that Butterscotch LifeSavers are really where it’s at.
Struggling with costume ideas? Here are some just for you…
Jicama (a flower) and Zeborah (a bee) Awww….
Maybe your costume celebrates a favorite thing or person. How about a Spicy Taco?
Or it could say something clever or thought-provoking. Like Fajita as “Super Food” or Johnny Whoop as a “cloning machine”.
You could be a theme with a friend. Like Snitch the Giraffe and Twitch the Tree.
Or you could go as yourself. Here’s Froggy the YouTube star.
Now that you have your costumes and treat-collectors ready, you have to wait until October 31st. That’s important. We’ve tried to go out early and later. That’s the only night people are giving away candy. Why? We don’t know. It will be different when I become Ruler of the Universe. Anyway…
3. Find a house with pumpkins and decorations.
4. Ring the doorbell and wait for someone to come.
5. Take candy. If they don’t offer any, that’s okay. Wait for them to close the door and then play a trick. We like to hide in the shrubs, ring the doorbell again, and then jump out at them. “Boo!” HahHah!
6. If they leave out a bowl of candy, it’s polite to empty it. That way, they’re done working for the night. And raccoons won’t come eat it. Saving the planet- one delicious treat at a time!
It’s best to be sure no one is watching when you steal help by taking all the candy.
Oops. We met some really nice neighbors. Like Morticia and Wednesday. They sure have an unusual family.
And, if you really play your cards right, you’ll finish off your evening of Trick-or-Treating by inviting yourself attending a super fun Halloween party. Enjoy the evening!
fine print: if you use any of the costume ideas pictured above, you owe Yeti 93% of the profits. Payable in candy or its equivalent value in cold hard cash.
