Working fire station tonight... Watching car loads of people drive up in their ratty suburbans, walk the block and then drive off. No chance do they live anywhere near the area. Wtf

Halloween is on the 31st, it always has been, that’s the Halloween day. Not a poor problem as much as a stupid problem, which can often intermingle.
Also OP…if you were rich you would not have randoms able to just knock on your door, sounds like a case of the 10% trying to pretend to be the 1%.
I bet you tell all the little kids that Santa Claus, the Easter bunny, and the tooth fairy aren’t real too.Parents and teachers tell the kids never to accept candy from strangers then go do that very thing wearing a mask after they've spent the last year bitching about wearing another sort of mask.
There is at least one registered sex-offender living in my subdivision. I wonder how many kids knocked on that pervert's door to get who-knows-what dropped in their bag.
People are that stupid and worse, are allowed to vote.
Halloween is one holiday that should be banned.

At least “the grinch” will live forever…If they ask me the question, I tell them the truth.
My mommy said always turn the lights off at 8Well, we dragged the fire pit out into the drive way, lit up a fire, opened a bottle of wine, and gave away candy to everyone that came by until we ran out. (Had a couple of ‘hot moms’ but they had husbands dutifully in tow.) Towards 8:30 or so, the neighbors spotted us, lugged their chairs out, and joined us. Listened to the ‘stros game for a while. A car careened into the culdesac and screeched to a halt (spied an unmanned candy bowl) and a passenger hopped out. We yelled at them, and they dutifully backed up so that we could pour the last of our candy into their passenger window. Another successful Halloween.
If you’re complaining about ‘the poors’ that invade your neighborhood on Halloween, you’re the poor.
PS, when did Halloween start ending before 9pm? F’n millennials ruin everything.
What is the top 1% individual income?
To be a top 1% earner in the United States in 2021, you had to make $357,552. Top 1% is down from $361,020.00 in 2020.
We have that beat like a red headed stepchild from China.
I think to be 10% you basically have to have any actual job.
So why are random people able to just walk up to your house?
I don’t make that much and I have security and a big fucking gate.![]()
Until you've caught enough kids to keep up with the chores.How long is it customary to leave the candy bowl out? One week, two maybe?
Chores with power tools, or chores the old fashioned way using manual tools. That’s a huge difference in the number of kids I needUntil you've caught enough kids to keep up with the chores.

One of these poors came into my subdivision of approximately 130 houses and stole 10+ buckets full of candy within the 1st hour. I heard about it and went home to guard it getting ready to clotheline this little MF'r.
Just leave a single bullet in a bucket with a note "your move".
I always looked forward to trick or treating when I was a kid. It sucks I don't have any neighbors to hand out candy, I would love to be a part of it all.I agree.
From the look of her, she wanted to keep all the candy for herself...Oddly relevant....

'Tis almost the season for Christmas domestic terrorists- I mean carolers. This is what @TheGerman hears...
Well said, sirYep, some people are poor. We have a state housing project in the community near where I live and go to church. Yes, the kids will probably grow up to be shitheads like their abusive parents, but that doesn't mean that we have to treat them like that now.
The first Sunday of every month we hold a potluck luncheon after church. Even though we don't always see the kids every week (and never their worthless parents), the kids all come in force on that first Sunday for a free meal...and it is probably the only real meal they get that weekend. I know they don't get breakfast that day because I ask them.
Sometimes it is hard to see how something so insignificant to us can mean such a big thing to a kid with nothing. I'm guilty of it too. But instead of glorifying the parable of the rich man and poor man to our internet friends, maybe we can put that 120 seconds or five bucks into putting a smile on the face of someone who will probably always have a harder life than us.
For the plural "we", I think you'll need to use the household income figure.
What is the top 1% household income?
To be in the top 1% in 2021, a household needed to earn $504,420.00. $531,020 was the threshold in 2020.

I kept waiting for my crazy neighbor to pop off like that but he spent the entire Halloween hiding inside his house.
He has an Audi AND he drinks 9$ coffee AND he doesn't tip. He's gotta be Trump level.
Audi is a VW, VW was made by hitler = literally hitler![]()

It was dead here this year, I have several pounds of candy left unopened.Another year. Another fire in the cul de sac. Lots more kids, little kids, than last year. Be a grinch. Don’t be a grinch. I like sitting in the drive way and having the littles and their parents come by. We only had a couple of high schoolers, and they were dressed up.

boy, I hear this one.... my wife and I fortunately live in a similar area and it isn't just one night it is 2 nights prior to the formal treat night... to the point where in this neighborhood, there are only three families with age appropriate children for the walkabout... yet, there are at least 100 groups each night that wonder around in dollar store costumes pounding on door bells... and accompanied in some cases by unwashed parents who need a trip to the salon or barber... beater cars driving the streets and letting the crew of urchins out to run their menace on foot... there was a point where I would leave a large metal mixing bowl out and not have to deal with it... Now, I just turn all of the lights out, and watch for vandals... luckily we haven't seen that, but would just be a matter of time... and I am sure most of these are public assistance kid's with parent with sweet tooths... the entitlement generationDear Poors,
I know poor people do poor people things, which is why they're poor, so let me help you poors out a little.
If all of you over in Poorpersonville get together and decide that having Halloween on the 30th instead of the 31st for whatever dumb fucking reason is going to be a thing out of nowhere, make sure that you actually let all of the non poors know.
It's been indelible in my hippocampus watching the current and next generation of poors wandering around the 'rich neighborhood' (where you don't fucking live) with dumb fucking looks on their faces wondering why no one has any candy and why the streets are currently dark as fuck.
Go be poor somewhere else. Literally.
Sincerely,
The guy who actually turned all of the exterior lights to the house on and then 550 corded all of the gates leading to the front door shut.
