It’s that magical time of year again, parents! Get ready for an influx of candy, costumes, trick-or-treating, and perhaps the occasional sightings of murderous clowns. Yes, Halloween is upon us, and this year, we could all use a delightful distraction. With unsettling clowns lurking about, the chaos of the election, and the overall tumult of 2016, a bit of levity is just what we need.
Whether your idea of Halloween fun involves scouring Pinterest for intricate costume ideas that will make your fellow mom friends roll their eyes, or devouring the candy you intended to hand out to trick-or-treaters before October 27th, everyone has their unique way to celebrate. Fortunately, the witty parents of Twitter are here to share their amusing thoughts on Halloween.
- A Horrifying Sight
Forget creepy clowns; the real terror is when you open your door and spot yet another flickering candle. Enough with the candles, please! - Reality Check
Great, now the only thing that makes Halloween “great” isn’t even tangible. I guess I’ll just need to bring a sippy cup filled with vodka on our trick-or-treating adventure to numb the disappointment. - A Dreadful Choice
If he’s had a vasectomy, we all know which option would strike the most fear into his heart. - Costume Competition
Oh, your mom actually crafted your costume? My kids are rocking Amazon specials priced at $29.99 each that are already showing signs of wear after trying them on for just five minutes. Gluten for you, and you, and you! - Trick-or-Treating Benefits
Kids are like little candy harvesters, especially on Halloween. Send them out to gather goodies, and if they dare complain, remind them of the c-section or third-degree tearing they caused. This is the least they can do! - Budget-Friendly
On the bright side, at least not spending a fortune at Party City is a plus. - Endless Soundtrack
It’s as if you have your own personal haunted house soundtrack that never stops playing, no matter the season. Ugh, forever. - Candy in Hindsight
Looking back, there were certainly easier (and cheaper) ways to have a never-ending supply of candy. Hindsight is a funny thing. - Candy Disappointment
This literally makes me upset. If you can’t indulge in candy during Halloween, when can you? Stick to the boxed wine, Trader Joe’s; nobody wants this abomination. - Mixed Messages
For one night, all bets are off. But we really need to emphasize that last part. - Eww
Look away, kids. I said look away! - Boundless Possibilities
You can be anything, moms. Happy Halloween!
