Today, in the spirit of Halloween and to get back at a child who repeatedly pressed the doorbell until I showed up, I quickly opened the door and yelled "Boo!" The child ended up being carried away crying with wet pants by a mother threatening to sue. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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, a kid came trick or treating to my house. When I told him Halloween was nearly two weeks ago, his reaction was to savagely kick me in the shin and run off screaming obscenities. This is the same kid who broke down in tears when I gave him candy on the real Halloween. FML
Today, I decided to scare my 10 year old sister for fun. I hid behind a door and leapt out, shouting "Boo!" when she walked by. She burst into tears and ran screaming to my mom. My mom thought I'd hit my sister, and was so angry that she punched me in the eye. FML
Today, I thought it would be funny to sneak up on my dad while he was rummaging through his briefcase. He must have heard me, because the moment I got up close, he whirled around and yelled "BOO!" causing me to scream like a little bitch. FML
Today, a guy rang my doorbell, yelled "Happy Halloween" and then threw a bunch of leaves that he'd lit on fire at me. FML
Today, a little girl and her mother stopped in front of my window to look at the witch I'd put there as a Halloween decoration. The little girl was smiling, so I lifted the curtain and smiled at her. When she saw me, she started to cry, and ran away. FML
Today, l was crouched on the ground in the doorway at a haunted mansion. It's part of my job here to scare the people passing by. A 12 year-old girl walked by, I grabbed her leg, and she kicked me in the face. FML
Today, I was in a store with my mom. I wandered off, then walked around looking for her. I spotted her, and decided to put on a ski mask to give her a scare for a laugh. I hid around a corner and yelled "BOO!" when I saw her. It wasn't my mom, and I'm now banned from that store. FML
Today, I was at the mall and someone peeked their head under the door of my dressing room while I was half dressed. Not knowing who it was, I kicked him in the face just out of instinct. Its was a 4 year old kid looking for his mother. FML
Today, my friends dared me to answer the door naked for the pizza guy. I heard the doorbell but when I answered, it was the little boy from next door participating in a fundraiser. FML

That's kind of an asshole thing to do. You don't deserve to be sued but you did deserve a lecture.

i have seen worse stuff then someone doing "BOO!" there is a video of a guy scareing the shit out of kids with a texas chainsaw skit..and chasing them with a chainsaw (with the blades off i so hope..). Seriously it is halloween..it is men to be both fun and scary. =)

I wish people would stop putting (sarcasm) on obviously sarcastic comments. If it looks like you're being serious, then sure, disclose it so It doesn't look like you're making an excuse for a lame comment but otherwise, we'll catch it.

Wow really a lecture ? How old is op 12 ? I think op is old enough to not get a lecture. Plus it's Halloween you are supposed to get scared. It's fun

54- you'd be surprised how many people don't know I'm being sarcastic. Common sense isn't that common, and the world seems to be full of dumb people

Good job OP. that kid has to learn not to be a brat. Obviously, if the mother is threatening to sue, then she probably lets the little brat do what he wants anyway. Some parents.

obviously. I totally see how you came to that obvious conclusion

Given the chance I would have done the same lol.

It was their fault...

Another over protective parent who happens to be sue-happy. Heaven forbid a child gets scared on Halloween. Gotta make sure kids are treated nicely by everyone otherwise you'll be sued! Seriously though, I hate it when parents put their kids on a pedestal and if anything negative happens to them, they freak the **** out.

haha. I scared one kid so bad he ran screaming all the way back to the vehicle and dived in a cowered under the seat. me and his dad had a good laugh and I gave his dad candy to give to him. OP, I would have just laughed in her face.

The kid deserved it... I would have done the same thing if the kid kept ringing my door bell... That Mom needs to teach her kid some manners on Halloween. I would have laughed at the mother for even mentioning to sue me... Bring it on, beeyotch! :D lol.

Unfortunately, stories like this don't really surprise me anymore. The type of parent who doesn't teach her child that repeatedly ringing the doorbell is rude and obnoxious is totally the type who looks for someone else to blame for situations that arise due to her own parenting failures.

Like if the kid gets bad grades so the parents blame the teacher.

My friend's dad used to dress up as a pile of trash bags with a pumpkin covering his head and sit right next to the candy bowl, which he left out on the porch. Then as soon as a kid was about to grab some candy he would jump up at them. This seems rather mild in comparison, and I don't think he ever got sued/threatened, lol.

You know something, OP? I think YOU should sue! That'll teach her and that snot nosed brat of hers!
annie_nk 23
Yeah! Public urination on OP's property! That'll show em!
