[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread reminds me, I need to get my "We've been Boo'ed" sign up.

No, we haven't been boo'ed yet. It's a pre-emptive strike.[/quote]

Me too! We got the bag of plastic junk and candy last year then it caused arguments with the kids when I refused to do this to two more families. Who has time for this and who would want this junk?  I’m avoiding it all this year. [/quote]

Kids in my neighborhood love it. And really, it takes minutes to do. So, fine if you don't want to do it. But don't act like it's some big commitment.
You're already buying candy for Halloween. Put it in a gift bag or reuse what was used to Boo you last year (e.g., fabric bat print bag left for us last year was used). Print a sign. Let the kids have 5 min. of fun. I work FT. So does DH. Kid has activities. We are busy. And yet, somehow we manage to carve out 10 min. to do this.

By all means, if you don't like it then PLEASE do preemptively put up a boo sign so we know not to inconvenience you. Put it in the yard on that stick you removed from your ass.[/quote]

Halloween is already Halloween, do you get it? THERE IS ALREADY ENOUGH CANDY AND CHEAP PLASTIC CRAP.

Not wanting yet more plastic crap in the world does not mean one has "a stick up one's ass"; it simply means we get that plastic really does end up in the ocean. And kids are already getting treats and candy. It's enough already.

Want to do it? Great. I don't want to do it, so I post a sign. That should be fine for me to opt out without people like you saying it's because I have a stick up my ass. [/quote]
