Handling Halloween

I wanted to organize a big Halloween bash but Donnie was like “lolz halloween’s for sux0rs noob” and Mr. E said “Naw, man, I’m too old for that stuff.”

So was I stuck deciding whether to crash a party or pulling a trick and stealing the kids’ treats (haha, see what I did there?) Now I’ve only been in human culture for a year, so someone had to advise me that it’s not impossible I’d get “arrested” if things got out of hand. So I decided to just hand out egg-free food to local trick-or-treaters.

I needed to get a treat, so went to the store and bought a box of raisins. Unfortunately, I ate most of the box so there wasn’t very much left come evening, so each kid would have a strict ration of 5 raisins. Here’s an example of how it went:

[Kid knocks on the door; I open it. There are three tub-o-lard kids and a parent.]
Kids: Trick-or-treat!!!
Fat Kid: That’s a great costume, Mr. Egg!
Me: I’m not wearing a costume, I’m really an egg.
Obese Kid: Ha ha. You’re funny, Mr. Egg!
Obeser Kid: What about our treats?
[I decided they were so fat, they didn't need more food. So I gave them 3 raisins instead of 5.]
Parent: What was that you put in the bag?
Me: Raisins. Each kid got 3. I made sure they all got the same thing.
Fat Kid: Ew, raisins?
Obeser Kid: Yeah, that sucks!
Me: Shut up you ungrateful little twerp! Your fat butt is going to have a heart attack at 14 and you don’t need more help from me to do it!
Parent: Is this your idea of a joke?
Me: Maybe if you stopped feeding your kids Crisco bars and ice cream for breakfast, I wouldn’t feel bad about giving them candy!
Parent: Ugh! You are a disgusting (etc., etc.)

Next year, I’m crashing a party.
