People On TV You Absolutely CANNOT STAND

When we were kids it was Ex-Lax in candy wrappers and razor blades in apples.

I don't think that much trick or treating goes on anymore anyway.

I've never seen a single one in my neighborhood in the 20+ years I've lived here.

Well, I will still go to Sam's Club and pick up a couple of 50 lb. bags of Halloween candy, eat most of it myself and return to Sam's Club to buy another 50 lb. bag of candy for the 10 children in my neighborhood!

So...monsters under the bed.

Yeah, it could've happened. But it seems urban legends are all we really have. People have researched and written books about these myths. You'd think if this stuff was happening, we'd have at least a few substantiated reports.


I actually liked the rumors. They put the trick in "trick or treat". Until then, all I had to add was "trick or treat, smell my feet".

There's also "Trick or treat, eat my meat", which I don't think I ever actually said to the candy-givers on Halloween.

I put up Halloween decorations both inside and outside, but since no kids trick or treat around here anyway, I don't hand out candy.

I wish I could because it would be a total blast to dress up as Frankenstein or an evil monk and mess with the kids.

I meant mess with them mentally, not the other way, you perverts.

I didn't know I had those emojis until I went searching. But I now know I have an alternative to Pornhub on Saturday nights.

BTW, in this forum, you can enlarge their size using the text size feature.

The forum software recognizes them just like ASCII characters and text.

Copy and paste your emojis into the text size box which you've selected for any available text size, click OK and you've got emojis as big as you can enlarge any text.

🤠 = size 6.

You put the emoji into the text panel first, then copy paste it into the text size box.

When I come home and put the TV back on, I see this guy flanked by the other ladies of The Talk. Now I'm also seeing him in a commercial for a new Love Boat. He kinda creeps me out.

He's a host on the Real Love Boat. Also, his wardrobe person is colorblind... 

Stand By Me was based on 1/4 of a Stephen King novel called The Four Seasons.

There were four unrelated short stories each one named for a season. I think the movie was based on the Autumn section. Maybe Summer.

Anyway, when the movie first came out, they didn't publicize the Stephen King connection. I had recently read the book, maybe a year or two earlier. As the movie progressed, I was very puzzled as to why I felt like I had seen it before and why I seemed to instinctively know everything that was going to happen next.

The movie was as close to the book as any movie I had ever seen.

Practically word for word.

I was kind of puzzled about it for a good while

Anyway, after some time had passed, I either figured it out on my own, or heard somewhere else that the movie was based on that book which I had read.

So that's my off topic two cents.
