Today, I bought fifteen bags of candy for the trick-or-treaters. I sat outside with a bowl of candy the whole night. Only one person came. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I had to tell all the trick-or-treaters that I'd run out of candy. I'd actually bought about $50 worth of candy, but managed to eat all of it by myself, sitting alone in my apartment, exactly like last year. FML
Today, I dressed up like a pirate, dressed my dog as a parrot and bought $30 worth of candy to pass out to trick-or-treaters. I waited by the door for 3 hours. Not one kid came. FML
Today, after a stressful shift at work, I bought three bags of candy to hand out to trick-or-treaters tonight. I didn’t realize until I got home that one bag had a hole in it, and there were three empty M&M wrappers inside. My grocery store sucks. FML
Today, I asked my girlfriend to get a bunch of candy for our first Halloween at our new house, so she got $60 worth. We got into an argument about who was going to give it out. It’s now 9 p.m. No one came to our door all night. FML
Today, I was handing candy to a little boy who was trick or treating by himself. He was small enough to grab the candy and run past me into my house. I've been searching my house for two hours and still can't find him. I'm afraid to go to sleep. FML
Today, I spent over an hour decorating my house for trick or treaters. I never got one person at my door because I forgot to unlock my gate. FML
Today, I saw what my mom handed out for trick-or-treaters last night. Toothbrushes. Yup, we're that house. FML
Today, I woke up excited to go trick-or-treating, the treat being candy. Instead, my town has officially postponed Halloween due to blackouts. I guess this is where the trick comes in. FML
Today, a kid came Trick-or-Treating at my house. When I told her it was still one more day until Halloween, and that I didn't have any candy, she wound-up her fist, punched me in the groin, and ran off laughing. FML
Today, one of my neighbors dressed up in the exact same costume as me. Every house I go to refuses to give me candy because my neighbor has already been there. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

We spend 364 days of the year telling our kids not to take sweets from strangers, then on hallowe'en we encourage them to go begging for sweets from people they don't know. Trick or treat is a stupid, horrible 'tradition' and pretty much sums up America's contribution to world culture.

Oh, don't even. Halloween has been around for centuries. Maybe not the walking around asking for candy, but there has been a holiday similar to Halloween in most major cultures for at least a thousand years. There is no way you could pin this on Americans. Sorry. Try looking up the history of Halloween before you cast judgments. It is indeed a "tradition" that was BROUGHT OVER to America when it was settled. How on earth could we have created it? Don't try to blame a country that is just over 200 years old for something that dates back centuries. "The American tradition of 'trick-or-treating' probably dates back to the early All Souls' Day parades in England. During the festivities, poor citizens would beg for food and families would give them pastries called 'soul cakes' in return for their promise to pray for the family's dead relatives." http://www.history.com/content/halloween/real-story-of-halloween/today-s-traditions Check out that website, and bite your tongue when you don't know your facts.

If it's really that bad I would've given that one kid a crapload of candy.... unless of course that was early on and you expected more.... but anyway I'm sorry but hey more candy for you and if I could've went there I would've gladly taken it all from you. xD Oh one more thing, who buys 15 bags of candy? You only need like 5 bags tops unless you give that much away or they're tiny bags.
