****The Official Friday Silliness Thread****

I once had someone give me spaghetti in a zip-lock bag for halloween—they had run out of candy. No joke. The next day, they were power-spraying tomato sauce and noodles from their vinyl siding.

One time I got a sealed clear bag of something that looked like ground beef. It turns out that the house was handing out dog food. I don't remember exactly what it was, but I seem to recall it was "related" to "Gaines Burgers."

One year I went to a costume party, naked, with only a potato tied around my waist and hung in front

I was a dic tater

Reminds me of the old joke.....

"Why do the Russians circumcise their boys?"

"Because they wanted to have a bunch of dic...taters...."

Ugh, sorry for the bad joke.....

“Dentists and orthodontists should not be allowed to celebrate Halloween if they’re going to get all tooth doctory on us.”

My dentist takes the opposite view.

He is okay with people eating candy. And even crunching on ice cubes. Damaged teeth translate to more business opportunities. He’ll encourage good tooth care but knows that if he can’t convince you, he’ll get some work out of it in the end.

Candy Corn The most polarizing candy of all. The fruitcake of Halloween; it just never goes away. If you love them, fine. But don't subject the rest of us haters to the sickeningly sweet triangle that tastes like neither candy nor corn.

2 pieces is all you need.

With two pieces you can make fangs. And then the joke gets old.

Laffy Taffy I do not laffy when I get these. I sobby. I get depressedy. Because it gets all stucky to my teethy and doesn't even taste that goody.

I thought it has this name because their are dumb jokes on the packaging.

Is Laffy Taffy playing a joke on you?

A mysterious punch line printed on Nestle's iconic Laffy Taffy wrapper has sparked frenzy among enthusiasts of the sticky snack, over a joke that no one seems to get.

Is the joke on you? Watch the exclusive video and cast your opinion on this candy outcry.

"Yeah - my wife shows me last night the stuff she got to hand out at halloween and she plans to hand out these little halloween bags of pretzels - I told her “you’re cleaning up the toilet paper in the yard as a result of this”.

On the other hand, if you make another trip the store, yours could be the most popular house in the neighborhood...

some 8 oz beer cans and some mini bottles...

My father-in-law’s brother gave out scoops of ice cream once way back when he was in college ... yup, unpackaged scoops of ice cream dropped right into their bags.

I’d have to say that’s got to be way up there on the worst treat list.

It could get worse.

fat free Frogurt (frozen yogurt)

Yam Sorbet...

I was gonna pass out stock certificates but the kid will say “Are you kidding me mister?” :-)

The formerly rich kids from River Oaks are going to go out this Halloween and toilet paper homes with stock certificates.

[weegee]

That’s quite a collection. What’s it worth on ebay?

[weegee]

But still, who the hell gives out spaghetti for halloween?!

I agree, save it for Columbus or Marco Polo Day.

"Back at the home, every night ends with a slo poke."

[weegee]

I think we should take all the candy from all the kids and pass it back out equally. We can call it.....redistributing the candy!

It could be a learning experience for the kids. "And who would you be voting for this year?" "Obama? Well I'd like to implement one of his ideas and share your 'wealth' with the others in your group..."
