[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If y'all are that damn scared of being on the wrong end of political correctness then why don't you just stick with traditional Halloween costumes - ghosts and witches and vampires.  Far less likelihood that someone will take offense.  Don't want your toddler in something scary?  Fine, put em in a pumpkin outfit (so cute, love those) or dress them up as an animal or a robot or doctor or an astronaut.  My personal non-offensive favorite - Darth Vader.  Beauty of Lord Vader is that you can't tell who's underneath the mask so anybody and everybody can rock that costume.  Point is, it's not as hard to stay away from potentially controversial costumes as y'all seem to think.[/quote]

I don't know, PP. What if my cute toddler in a round pumpkin costume happens upon a very obese homeowner, who is sensitive to the fact that he, in fact, does look like a pumpkin?[/quote]

Lol well technically said homeowner is not an actual pumpkin nor is he even a fruit (yes, pumpkins are fruits...so many people mistake them for vegetables) so whatever negative insinuations said homeowner makes based on his sensitivities are not the fault of your cute toddler nor you the parent of that cute toddler.[/quote]
