Trick or Treat?

[LazyGun]

Not a question as such - more an observation and a link ;)

This article made me laugh, and I think its advice for UK residents facing any trick or treat calls particularly hilarious

"“Householders are quite entitled to tell these children to piss off on the basis that they are culturally irrelevant."

Some american imports are very good - some should be resisted at every opportunity :)

I think its cute with the little ones and the older kids are fair game... sweet pebbles with dried bits of cat poo might work

I dislike this 'demand or menace' activity intensely. I can't think what the parents are trying to teach their kids. Surely the kids would be less keen if a bigger kid in the playground did much the same to them for their dinner money ? Why can't the parents buy their own kids sweets ? Hold a Halloween party for them and their little friends somewhere where they can dress up, play games, win prizes, rather than be antisocial to their neighbours in this way. Yet another awful US culture thing being taken up to the loss of our own traditions. :-(

@triggerhappy - Gangham Style rules :)

No one generation has the absolute right to dictate to others - but every generation has a right to make its position clear :)

I love some american imports - not so happy about some of the others. I just think this article funny....

Whatever happens in America always ends up here sooner or later.

Running is legal.

I hate trick or treating, what on earth is wrong with 'going guising?'
