Halloween Candy

There's different colors of tootsie rolls? Is it just the wrapper or is the whole thing different colors?

The tootsie rolls are actually a different color, not just the wrapper. They're also different flavors, Pink=cherry and whatnot.

razer blades so they can all be the joker for Halloween

Decorate the hell out of the front of your house. Then dress up like a ghost, sit motionless like you are a dummy on the bench on your front porch with a bowl of candy in your lap and a sign that says "take 1".

Grab kids' hands as they reach into the bowl to scare the living fuck out of them. They won't remember what candy they reached for.

Or just be "that guy" that gives regular-sized candy bars (snickers, milky way, 3 musketeers - the basics).

Sugar candy. a few years ago a kid was allergic to peanuts and didn't read the label at the peanuts candy and was in the hospital.

Either a) you've gotta learn you're allergic to peanuts at some point, or b) his parents are completely retarded for not making sure his candy doesn't have peanuts in it if they knew.

Don't cater to this nonsense.

Best decorations my family did for Halloween involved a gallon of red paint, some Styrofoam cut out to look like tombstones, and someone laying in a 'grave' by the path to the front door- random ankle grab = lulz

[Tomiko]

Ahaha awesome

Edit: For epic lulz, dress up as Wilford Brimley and do it.

That would be eipc.

I agree with either normal size bars or grab bags of an assortment of miniature type stuff.

Maybe zip-lock bags with stuff like:
Skittles
Miniature Snickers/Milky Way/etc
M&Ms
Smartees
etc

Basically so no matter what there'll be something they'll like since not everyone likes the same stuff.

As for how to deal with Teens, just don't give them candy if they don't have a costume.

[Eratosthenes]

Get some of that 99% dark chocolate to give to annoying people.

[Rahm]

how do you recommend dealing with punk teens who are clearly too old to trick or treat and aren't even wearing costumes?

Condoms and cigs?

They also have Vanilla Tootsie Rolls. I can't wait for that to roll out around October, they are seriously awesome.

As for the OP, variety is the spice of life. Best way to make the little buggers happy (and not get egged) is to make sure there is a little of everything to make them happy. I miss Halloween at the house I grew up in, we always decorated the house and had several Jack-O-Lanterns. A lot of people in the neighborhood went all out for Halloween. It is my favorite holiday.

[Lebzile]

Be like Herbert from FG and feed them Tylenol PM. kekeke

[Plow]

Well, I don't want to be the most popular neighbor, but I don't want my house egged or toilet-papered either.

And how do you recommend dealing with punk teens who are clearly too old to trick or treat and aren't even wearing costumes?

The Wilford getup and diabetes pamphlets would appear to be the perfect backup solution for them.

[Lavik]

malted milk balls

Yeah, tossing them a box of smokes will usually A) save your house for egging and B) Make them leave after one trip. We used to have a neighbor that would hand out pamphlets about Jesus and the Rapture every Halloween.

Come to think of it his home was always a shade of "egg yolk" yellow after this first Halloween on Dawn Circle.

Protip: Don't be that neighbor that gives out Mary Jane's and you will be ok. Those nasty shit tasting treats that come in the Brown and Orange wrappers? I want to hulk smash a baby rabbit right now just thinking about them X(

Sour Patch Kids

No, because I would NEVER leave your house. That's a little too boss.

[Silviya]

I'm not sure where you live, but up here there is about a 50/50 chance of there being snow on the ground on Halloween. There was a lady on our block that would always give you a styrofoam cup of hot apple cider for the kids (and coffee for the parents) as well as a hand full of candy. Some of the colder years it was defiantly a place you made sure to hit for a good pick-me-up so you could keep going another couple of hours or so.

Candy cigarettes are a blast from the past. Retro candy is the most fun unusual and delicious you can usually find it at a specialty candy shop.

[HAcoreRD]

Twix?

ring pops are bad ass too.
