For the first time in my adult life I’m not at college on Halloween (just graduated) and I’m passing out the candy for my household. I always knew going without a costume on Halloween was lame but now that I’m seeing it from the eyes of an adult passing out candy, I can see it is actually REALLY lame. Do y’all pass out candy to kids not wearing a costume on Halloween?

Edit: The comments here are pretty unanimously on the side of passing out candy no matter what, and I don’t disagree. Trick or treat is a very big thing in my neighborhood, so it has surprised me to see as many kids without costumes as I have. Still, I try to not make assumptions, I’ll just be a chill adult and do the job of passing out the candy either way. I appreciate yall’s input!

    My wife used to get all grumpy with high school kids (and sometimes even adults) trick or treating. I told her, I’m glad to see anyone that still has that spirit and energy. And if they don’t have costumes… They probably can’t afford them. Worst case, they’re doing something better than the trouble they could be up to.

    … But fuck those people that take the whole bowl at houses with no one home.
