I hope your father-in-law is okay.

But yes, several bags of Pop Rocks, along with a can of Coke, for each kid.
Thank you. Had a fall, should be ok I think.

As for the can of Coke, I was reminded of Oscar Wilde. Don't want the neighbor kids to go like Bunbury.

LADY BRACKNELL. What did he die of?

ALGERNON. Bunbury? Oh, he was quite exploded.

LADY BRACKNELL. Exploded! Was he the victim of a revolutionary outrage? I was not aware that Mr. Bunbury was interested in social legislation. If so, he is well punished for his morbidity.​

The wife hides all of the Hershey's stuff at the bottom...so selfish.

I was loading up the big tub we use for candy and my wife starts telling me which candy not to put in because she likes it. I just laughed and said take whatever you want set aside but if it’s here, I’m giving it out.

Evidently the Pop Rocks are a buck a pack, even in bulk. Wow.

We used to go with the classics, Snickers, Reese's, Twix. But....we always have lots left over and will eat those. So my wife has switched to stuff we wouldn't eat. She has discovered that the little kids like Ring Pops. So we have those and like 200 packs of Pop Rocks, which the older kids evidently like.

Wife is with her dad at the ER right now, so it seems I am likely handing stuff out. Not looking forward to that. Assume I should give them several packs of pop rocks.
If you're left with the pop rocks because the kids don't want them or because hardly any kids trick or treat anymore you must do this challenge and video it for the yard.

Isn’t it time to put this whole charade out to pasture? Halloween is, by far, the dumbest of the major holidays.

Oh look. A Spider-Man. And a princess. Have this Snickers bar as a reward for our awkward conversation.
Personally, I don’t love it. I don’t like candy all that much, and I don’t like wearing costumes at all.

But I loved it as a kid, I loved it when our kids were young, they loved it, and my wife still loves it.

And I get kick out of the really young kids who get really excited.

Anyone have the Nerds gummy clusters?

They're wonderful, the gummy core keeps all the Nerds together for excellent suckage and they look like Covid.

I hate Halloween. I'm a grinch when it comes to this holiday. Our older kid is going to hang out with some friends, and my wife is taking our younger kid to trick or treat with some friends that live up in Malibu, so it's just me and the dogs. I'm turning off all the lights at the front of the house, turning off the doorbell, and putting the World Series on in my office at the back of the house. Can't wait.

I've always been a fan of the chocolate classics- Snickers, Reese's PB cups, 3 Muskateers, M&M's, etc. Mrs. Diesel is more the sugar type- Skittles and Twizzlers.

This year we both forget to get anything so we're giving out whatever is left on shelves. We may be handing out Sweet Tarts and Dum Dum lollipops.

Dum Dums, Skittles, Milky Way, mini Reese's and Take 5.

Just realized Mrs Diesel fluffed up the bowl with skull rubber erasers and plastic ring finger spiders. U'm throwing those in the bags of anyone over age 14.
