| 2776 | Article | massreality | I had a Michelangelo and Batman costume like that. I agree with Vaporman, those masks were hot and very uncomfortable. I also remember how thin the vinyl was. I'm pretty sure I ripped one of my costumes before he end of the night. | Oct 05, 2015 |  | |
| 2775 | Article | Vaporman87 | Great list Ben. I'm really loving the title and closing images! Great selection of candy here, though I would probably have put Whatchamacallit at the top of mine. Zero bars would also be in there, but I wouldn't often get those as they didn't come in "fun" size. | Benjanime's Top Ten Halloween Candies | Oct 05, 2015 | |
| 2774 | Article | Vaporman87 | Oh I wore my fair share of Ben Cooper costumes (and probably some Collegeville ones as well). I don't recall which unfortunately, but I do remember the feel and smell of those vinyl costumes and the uncomfortable feel of those plastic masks. Often my face would be pouring sweat, as those masks made it impossible to vent the condensation from your breathing. Then the rubber band would get caught in your hair and that would get really uncomfortable. I still love them though. The bacteria cesspools that we used for bobbing for apples games was something I never thought about. As a kid, it never even crossed my mind that 50 people had put their faces in there before me. Now, of course, it makes me sick just thinking about it. LOL And yes, the time frames that we do trick or treating at now seem absurd. It is barely dark by the time my kids are done (about 7:00 PM) and that really detracts from the experience. I do make sure to tag alone with my kids these days, even though I was free to roam our neighborhood with no parental supervision in my youth. mainly because their is a major road cutting through the houses, and because it's just more dangerous for kids these days. But we do get in on the act by costuming ourselves. Fun article slayer, thanks! | Halloween Night In The 80's | Oct 05, 2015 | |
| 2773 | Article | Vaporman87 | It may be cliche, but I think it's true. And, I think the generations that came before us were probably justified to feel the same way. Seems that the further back you go, the more innocent and simple times were, the easier it was to enjoy something festive like Halloween. That pumpkin patch sounds amazing! I wish so badly that something like that was here locally. Sure, there are corn mazes and such, but nothing so elaborate as that. There is a farm within an hour drive of here that does similar things... pumpkin painting, hay rides, etc. But not haunted houses or cool things like that. Thanks for sharing with us alibbygirl. | Pumpkin Patch Memories | Oct 05, 2015 | |
| 2772 | Article | onipar | Whoa, that's crazy! That old woman sounds like a real maniac for sure. Must have been terrifying as a child. Good story! | Unmasked | Oct 05, 2015 | |
| 2771 | Article | Poshy2005 | I'm right there with you about tv intos. It always bugs me that I like the into but not show. | TV Theme Songs I Loved, But Never Cared For The Show | Oct 05, 2015 | |
| 2770 | Article | onipar | Ah, so true, scojer. Sometimes I just love to pile the candy in because I know it makes the kids happy. | The Unsung Heroes of Halloween | Oct 04, 2015 | |
| 2769 | Article | NLogan | Like a ninja, move like the wind, blend into shadow, silent like the grave, never be seen that is my motto. Especially when trying to escape a public bathroom I have destroyed after waiting until it is completely vacated before hastily making my exit from the stall before blame can be placed. Also I just realized my favorite skeleton figures are all made by Mattel Charon from Clash of the Titans, Scareglow and Skeletor from Masters of the Universe. | 5 Coolest Retro Skeleton Action Figures | Oct 04, 2015 | |
