My 2009 Halloween Log

Posted by SuperMarioBrosS Nov. 1, 2009 @ 10:22 AM EST

I'm going to start keeping a log of what I did during special events like Halloween, so that when I go to college or whatever, I can check back what I did when I was in 10th grade/level 10/10th standard (or however the fuck you call the 10th year of school in your area). It's kind of like a journal, you know? Like you're carving some events that happened in your life here, and then coming back to look what you have written? Yeah I'm going to treat my user page as a journal, ALONG with the endless stream of blank posts. It's going to be a boring story, but I'll try to keep it interesting. If you found it so boring that you can't read anymore, then remember that this is partly for entertainment purposes. Most of the events will have a really stupid/retarded/immature/hilarious/pat hetic scene that made it so fucking hilarious.

Anyway...

Let's get this straight: It fucking RAINED today at October 31st, 2009. Yes in HALLOWEEN it rained! That shit sucks, doesn't it? Well I managed somehow, although I'm really sleepy as a I write this.

So today at Halloween I departed my house at about... 7:40 PM? 2 people already came to get their shit (candy) and boy did they hog a FUCK LOAD of them! Anyway, it drizzled outside; one good friend of mine told me that. We took our umbrellas and went outside. We went to the first house and rang the door bell. Nobody there, so we went to the next one.

Let's get this straight too: I was participating in a "Food Drive" for a Thanksgiving Dinner for homeless people in Philadelphia. So I went around collecting non-perishable food items. My target is 30 cans.

The next one my sister and I got 2 pieces of candy EACH (thus making it 4). I also got 1 can of food, so that gave me a confidence boost. The next 2 houses I went gave us no candy. I went to the house that is 10 feet (3.3 meters) away from my house, and got some candy there. In fact, that house is the house of my Biology Honors classmate. Okay, enough of that. We went on, taking our happy asses, collecting some candy and shit. We did pass by 2 houses that didn't answer the door, but fuck I could care less. I got 2 cans of food and turned to another street. There it was a HUGE hill! If you look at it from a side-view, it would look like a HUGE "V"! I went along until I reached the dead-end. I collected about 8 cans of food and plenty of treats too. It also started pouring at that time as well. Some little 8 year olds, who had no umbrellas, went bat-shit insane and ran in fucking circles while getting drenched. I was happy to have an umbrella, so I was safe from the rain.

After 10 minutes of pounding rain, the rain ceased and I continued. I visited 5 more houses, got 3 cans of food, and ended my trip there. I went back to the street I live in, and visited about 18 more houses. I did get about 5 more cans, and $2 from a person. That $2 threw me off, since I asked for CANS, not MONEY! Even so, that's worth 2 cans, since I think there is a $1/can sale in a nearby grocery store (with tax which will cost about $2.12 overall). Then after visiting the 18th house (which was a fail, since nobody answered), I went home. Boy I was tired as FUCK! My back ached from the candy and cans I had to carry, but I was happy. I expected to get 0 cans today, but I got 15! (Well 13, but with the $2 that will become 15.) Plus I got a load of candy.

So it was an okay day of Halloween; not the greatest, but DEFINITELY not the worst. It was unusually warm like 66 Fahrenheit (18.8889 Celsius) which made it a good day. Normally the temperature is near freezing point. Also, due to the rain, very, VERY few people went trick-or-treating. So the rain did give a pro as well, since we got extra candy. People even told us "take as much as you want; we want to get rid of them" when we went to their houses. Some even told us (during 8:40 PM) that we were the FIRST people that came to their house. That was unusual. REALLY unusual. Also, 50% of the candy we left on the bowl still remained when we got home. And no, it was NOT left in the front yard unsupervised.

PICS OR GTFO:

The food drive run
- That's 15 cans collected. It actually shows 13, but with the $2 given (the $2 is hidden under a can) it should add to 15

The candy I collected
- Wow that's a SHIT LOAD of candy! Especially since I'm not TOO fond of candy.

The left-over candy
- Apparently very few people went trick-or-treating, since we ONLY opened 3 bags, and 1.4 bags worth of candy remains.

How much my sister collected
- Like wow, she is SO FUCKING OBSESSED with candy, yet garnered less than I did...

Please note: Those posts are STILL blank posts, and will become parts of the guide soon. Those pictures WILL be deleted, but for now, until I reach that far into the guide, I'm going to use them as a temporary image storage place. Don't be surprised if those links lead to guide posts after a year or two from when this was made.

Here's a diagram of my neighborhood, as this will make it easier to understand my trip:

Yes it's a shit diagram, but it's better than no diagram I suppose. I don't have to make this news post; I could have went on with my blank posts, so cut me some SLACK! Also, open discussion post. Damn I can't remember the last time I made a CLOSED discussion post (where you HAVE to follow the topic).

It looks like you got alot of reeses.

Nov. 1, 2009 | 9:07 PM SuperMarioBrosS responds:

Yes I did. I love Reeses.

During July, my parents had hidden 2 bags of Resses AND 2 bags of Snickers in a cabinet. I discovered it, and ate ALL 4 BAGS OF CANDY! That's about 6 candy bars (they were "fun sized") per day! Shit wasn't good at the end, where I began feeling hyper or something at the end of the day.

Holy shit, I got more candy than you! :P Oh well, it's not like I'll eat it all before it goes bad. Plus, I found this really wierd japanese candy, shit was it good. What did you dress as? My costume was, I was killed by candy. Had fake candy bars sticking out of my body.

Nov. 1, 2009 | 9:09 PM SuperMarioBrosS responds:

Ah you lucky bastard! It probably didn't rain in New Jersey, or your neighborhood is bigger than mine. Then again, I didn't finish my whole neighborhood due to the rain, but CONGRATS nevertheless!

How did that Japenese candy taste? Be specific please.

Oh I dressed as an... ORDINARY HUMAN!

...what that meant was I didn't really dress up. I don't really go trick-or-treating, but people told me to take some candy when I was supervising my little sister. So yeah, that should sum that up.

You must have looked BADASS with that costume!


Nov. 1, 2009 | 7:11 PM zombiemaster says:

:(
i had to give out candy,
and the little kids milk us dry.

Nov. 1, 2009 | 9:11 PM SuperMarioBrosS responds:

Well that probably sucked. And they stole all the candy? Wow... little pigs hog almost everything...!

Do you have any younger siblings? Maybe supervise them like I did and try to get some candy!


Nov. 1, 2009 | 10:01 PM jakenator85 says:

It tasted....fruity, and creamy. Turns out there were to layers, and the inner one was kinda like gum, but it disolved.

Nov. 1, 2009 | 10:07 PM SuperMarioBrosS responds:

Wow that shit sounds REAL GOOD!

Thanks a lot for making my mouth water! Now I'm tempted to find something to eat.


Nov. 1, 2009 | 10:07 PM chillbro says:

You started feeling hyper?You must not eat candy much.Candy doesn't make me hyper,the hyperness just happens on its own.

Nov. 2, 2009 | 5:47 PM SuperMarioBrosS responds:

Lucky bastard.

That's why I don't really like candy, because of that.


Nov. 1, 2009 | 10:08 PM chillbro says:

And I just dressed up as a skeleton.

Nov. 2, 2009 | 5:47 PM SuperMarioBrosS responds:

Did you manage to scare some people?

HOLY HELL THAT IS HUGE!!!!

Looks like your school isn't that far either.


Nov. 2, 2009 | 3:06 AM TurtleKirby101 says:

And when I go trick or treating next year, I'm not gonna stop untill Me and my friends all have 100 CANDY BARS EACH! Hahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!

Think about it: there are at least 50 houses on my street. There are at least 30 on the main road, at least 50 on the top bit by my school. There are at least 40 houses if you go on the street that's right of the Intersection. There are at least 30 If you go straight ahead. There areat least 45 in the street that leads to my old school. There are at least 30 if you turn right at the top right intersection, then turn left. That makes 275 potential houses. That makes at the very least a potential 200 candy bars. Plus we can harvest those potential candy bars at least 3 times (by coming back to houses we've already been to) In smaller groups, by splitting up our group of, say, 4, in to 2 groups of 2, and going back 1 group at a time. Once the first group have recollected, the other group go. Then once we've recollected from every house in the area, we go back, split into 4 groups of 1, and recollect again individually. Then we make a group of 3, leave 1 person waiting, and go again once we've recollected every house again. The waiting person can either follow us, or go round to more houses by themselves. Then we make a different group of 3, and go again. Then we split into any more combinations we have, and go more.

Now, time for the maths... Wow, We're looking at 1,400 candy bars EACH if that goes well. My maths isn't that great though, so correct me if I'm wrong.

Nov. 2, 2009 | 5:53 PM SuperMarioBrosS responds:

That's a nice plan, except it's probably not going to work.

People are going to realize that you're cheating on them (since they will remember your costume) by returning to their houses and then will yell "GET THE FUCK OUT!" at you all.

It was a nice plan, but I doubt it's going to work. Also, 1,400 candy bars? Umm... I doubt each door has enough to give you 5-8 shares of candy (however many pieces equals 1 share) x 4. You will literally deprive all their candy bars so much that they may not even have enough to give to you. Plus, that's a FUCK load of walking!

Unless if you're a sugar-addict and don't mind increasing the risk of diabetes, 1,400 candy bars is just a waste. Plus, I bet most of them will rot after a month at least. If you eat just 20 bars per day (which is A LOT!) then it will take you 2.25 months to finish all of that. Assuming each bar has 20 g of sugar in it, that's 400 grams of sugar! That x 30 = 12000 grams of sugar! Yeah... 12 kg of sugar per month is NOT good for you! So most of it is probably going to rot at the end.

Today's my anniversary!

Nov. 4, 2009 | 3:49 PM SuperMarioBrosS responds:

Congratulations on your 2nd anniversary!

Commented on your post!


Nov. 5, 2009 | 2:10 AM TurtleKirby101 says:

Well, I don't know...

For 1 thing, we act differently here in england. Instead of "GET THE FUCK OUT NOW!" it's more like they keep quiet and keep the candy (we also call candy "sweets" here) coming. Or just say "have you been here before", in which case we say a pre prepared cover story. Also, we can have spare costmes so we can switch halfway through and get even more.

I've done the maths, and each house will have to give out 28 sweets. We normally get extra stocks for halloween, so this shouldn't be a problem. Plus most people have lots of candy stocked anyway. And about the walking, at least we have lots of sweets to keep us going!

Yes, a lot of them will rot (or "go off" as we say here), but a lot will last for multiple months. That will give us unlimited spplies for at least 6 months (british candy lasts a while). And yes, we won't be able to eat many at once.

Nov. 5, 2009 | 5:02 PM SuperMarioBrosS responds:

I was actually over exaggerating there. We don't say "GET THE FUCK OUT", but we MAY say "Get out".

The costume swapping idea is a perfect method of making more trips and gaining extra candy. And candy doesn't really give you much energy for walking. That energy will expire really quickly. Simple carbs are "weak" energy, but I'm not going to get more indepth than that, since it's a Chemistry/Biology lecture then.

Wow you people in the UK really surprise me with your English. I know that you call potato chips as "Potato Crisps" and french fries as "chips" and cigarettes as "fags", but wow I never thought it would get much deeper than that. Do you call an elevator a "lift" and the water faucet as a "tap"?

I never tried British candy. After all, I have only been in London just two months ago, AND it was just for 4 hours. Some of my parents already are complaining about me eating too much candy even though I'm pretty conservative on them. If I had the same amount of candy as you do with this plan, they probably would faint. Plus, again, too much candy is not good for you anyway.

You are a selfish bastard with that plan, you know that? You rob candy from the same people that could have been given to people that have never been in that house.


Nov. 7, 2009 | 2:49 AM TurtleKirby101 says:

We probably wouldn't say anything much.

Yep, it's good for getting lots more!

uhh... I'm no braniac at chemistry/biology. I did do a good homework project though.

LMAO! Potato chips are usually reffered to as just "crisps", french fries are called "chips", ciggarettes can go either way, elevators are called "lifts", never heared of "water faucet", but If you mean what I think you mean, yes it's a tap. Also, ass is "arse". I didn't realise how many differences there are.

I've never tried american candy either. My parents are very fussy too. When they see me coming home next halloween, they'll probably laugh, and say "how did you get all that?".

I know it's selfish. But it's not like there's gonna be shortages. Hardly anyone trick or treats around here. Besides, it'll only rot if we don't get it.

Nov. 7, 2009 | 5:59 PM SuperMarioBrosS responds:

It's good getting lots more, but it's not good to get diabetes.

I still don't feel like lecturing on carbohydrates and shit.

Water faucet here is the metal thing water comes out of. Like in sinks, the place where water comes out. I believe you guys call it as a "tap".

Ass is "arse"? WTF? We use both here, although ass is more often used than arse.

I can see how they get fussy, since too much sugar is not good for you. Also, if hardly anybody trick or treats in your area, then shit's getting suspicious if people notice the doorbell ringing more often than usual.

You're right about the rotting part, but I think it's better for candy to rot than to eat it and face high blood sugar. Unless if you're active, high blood sugar is something you do NOT want.


Nov. 8, 2009 | 4:44 AM TurtleKirby101 says:

Yes, yes, I know... I'm not going to eat most of it... But If we get all that, we might even get on the news...

Nov. 8, 2009 | 8:34 AM SuperMarioBrosS responds:

I doubt that some trick-or-treaters that have cheated many houses into giving tons of candy will make it on the news...

There's more important and urgent shit to cover on the news.


Nov. 8, 2009 | 2:26 PM TurtleKirby101 says:

Yeah, maybe... Still, that's a lot of candy bars.

Nov. 8, 2009 | 3:17 PM SuperMarioBrosS responds:

Indeed it is. That's a lot of sugar to be specific.

You're going to go hyper like a tornado after eating all that candy.

That is, IF that plan works.
