Well, here's a childhood Halloween story, from my offspring.
Liam, now 8, was cruising around my mother's home 4 years ago. He has two uncles (my brothers) who are only a few years older (now 10 and 11) and they were racing around the house in costume. Family room, dining room, kitchen, family room, dining room, kitchen... having a great time, until Liam caught his feet on his Grim Reaper robe and fell forward. The robe also caught his arms, due to the tension his feet were generating, so he caught himself with his front teeth.
And embedded them into the linoleum in the kitchen.
We ended up in the ER for several hours as they checked to make sure his jaw wasn't fractured, to stitch up the torn lip, etc., while my mother poked around to find the two teeth that had gotten kicked around the kitchen.
Liam's two upper front adult teeth were very delayed in coming in, but he didn't need a spacing brace (thank God!) and he now, after 4 years, has a normal smile again!
and he now, after 4 years, has a normal smile again!
Whew, no lie I was scared reading that (for the boys sake)
Glad to hear all is fine (now).:Thumb

The funniest Halloween I remember was when I was, I guess, about 14 or 15. The front door on my parents' house is at the top of a flight of 4 steps due to the slope of the yard. There is a small 4'x4' porch at the top of the steps.
My father had set up large black lights off to either side of the front door, down in the yard, but safe from anyone running into them. The storm door had been removed and a small room had been constructed from black plastic inside the door. That was where I was placed. I was only wearing short pants and had been painted with a skeleton design in the old radioactive glow-in-the-dark paint on the front of my body (bright!) and smeared with mud and dirt to cover the rest of my skin. When the black light hit me, all you saw was the paint. I would sit in the door with a big bowl of candy at my feet. There was a Halloween sound effects recording (screams, etc.) playing loudly in the background.
The script was for me to just sit frozen as the trick-or-treaters came into the yard. Since they couldn't really see me as a person, they just assumed I was a manikin or painting. That is, until they got to the top of the steps to get their candy.
Then I stood up...
I know Peter Pan is just a story, but I swear we saw a bunch of little kids fly when they came off that porch on that Halloween night... :devil :lmao

Somebody puts a cherry bomb(or smashes it with a metal bat) in me and my neighbors mailbox every year. This year I rigged them to shock anybody who tries to touch them. They shall reap what they have sown.

I did the same thing, sort of, at the same age.
I had a UV lamp, had painted my face into a skull using the glow-in-the-dark white (which glows green, especially under UV) and black grease paint. I was wearing a black stocking cap, and black clothing down to shoes and gloves, and was in front of a black cloth background behind the porch rail, of course with the candy bowl next to my head. Scared a couple kids pretty well, but I think I may have caused some mild heart attacks in the adults!
Anyhoo... Halloween is done and gone again. Tori and I took the kids to my old neighborhood as there is no trick-or-treating where we are unfortunately. We used my mother's house as home base, and were only out for maybe 45 minutes, but I literally have 3 2-gallon sized mixing bowls on the table over-filled with candy. And I'm going to make sure the kids make it last this year... no more sugar-induced comas this time!

The neighbor is in on it and I'll disable it tomorrow.
Oh and if they use a metal bat this year it might conduct.

my favorite candy is twix.
Also here is a story:
Today wasn't my lucky day, First I forgot to do some homework I finised it in biology, but the fact that I forgot it is unlucky. At lunch I spilled half of my french fries because my "friends" decided to throw my chicken patty at the fries that were in my hand. Right now I am going throug the rough time that this one kid is giving me so that I can be his friend, and I want to be his friend because he knows a lot about computers and it might ease my entry into Student Technical Support. So yea, he almost made me miss my bus, again, (He's suceeded too by kicking me in the nuts). Now my computer is acting goofy. Also I am staying up to 2 AM to finish homework because "Who's line" was on.

Most metal bats are wrapped at the grip with a leather-like composite. Good insulator, and will prevent a shock from reaching the batter unless you are looking at large voltage output, in which case God help you (and your attorney) if it kills someone.

If he's giving you hell so you can be "friends", he's not your friend and probably never will be. Bad situation, and I'd just suggest you stay away from that one.
I dealt with that crap when I was in high school, and missed being arrested for assault simply because the witness didn't know my name... yeah, I got dragged into some bad stuff so I'd have useful friends, and know enough to tell you that it's best to find someone who hangs around with you because he gets along with you, not because you are a useful or entertaining tool.

well geez my best friend always sits at the same table as him, so I might as well try to make friends. Also he has threatened me to beat me with his "Pimp Cane" Whenever I see it I over react on purpose in hopes that he'll stop the rough stuff. I Have more rough stuff to specify if you want:
1. For some odd reason I can't focus on my homework if there any nose from my bro and sis running around upstairs. My parents want me to do my homework at the ktichen table WHERE IT IS NOISIER! Thus I can't focus if I put on headphones then I have to turn it up too loud and then I can't focus. Overal why the heck can't I focus while there is so much noise, I am just fine usually when it is midnight and they are all asleep.
2. I can't stop procastinating my homework until 2 am last night I was sucessful about getting my homework done at midnight! WOOT, and I did my HW in my room....hmmm. However when I do my homework at the kitchen table I get it done around 10, but I GET ABSOLUTELY NO TIME FOR FUN DURING THE WEEK which sucks and is why I don't do that, plus it is too noisy unless my brother and sister could learn to shut the ***** up!
3. I am behind on my homework. By that I mean that Instead of doing A day homework the night I get it I do it the night before its due. IF you are like wat is he talking about? then let me explain that our school has a block schedule. 4 1.5hour long classes each day. Then we have an A and b Day all classes including the core classes are A and B so, yeah I have tons of homework anyways, but it is a bad thing to get into to have to fall into the scheme that I am in now.
My headphones are being shipped here, so maybe I might be able to do the kitchen table again, but my bro and sis really need to shut up!

Well my mailbox survived this year but the neighbors didn't fair to well.(cherry bomb + cheap plastic = not too good)
It wasn't a high voltage shock, just enough to get the point across(and let out my vindictive side).

They shall reap what they have sown.Just go out in the woods and get you a possum and put in the mailbox. When they yank open the door, where do you think that P.O.'d possum is going to go? Right up their arm and into the car.
It actually works rather well. We used to do that to the mailmen on a regular basis when I was in High School. Ride around the county at night with a spot light, find you a possum, stick him in a bag, then leave him in a random mailbox. It works best if the temperature is a little warm out. That way he WANTS to get out of that hot metal box and fast. Just don't do it when it is too hot. A live possum works much better than a dead one. :smokin
