According to Hofmann: Trick or defeat
I was recently going through some old childhood photos, trying to pinpoint the exact date where everything started to go wrong. Right now, I无毛视频檓 thinking it can be either 1998 or 1999, so I can stop blaming Y2K now.
Anyway, I came across a photo of me for Halloween as a vampire on a bright, sunny October day.
All I can think of was, first, crossing 1987 off my timeline of woe because I still had a sparkle and hope in my eyes.
Second, I kept thinking of how dumb of a kid I was, because, as I should have known, the sun pretty much vaporizes vampires.
Kids like to pretend and enter a world of make believe, and while I was out seeking candy and didn无毛视频檛 turn into dust from the sunshine, I most likely thought I was a vampire 无毛视频� mainly because I had fangs even though they were plastic.
Anyway, with Halloween here and trick-or-treaters running around, I thought I should save some future old person the pain of looking upon old, dusty, digital photos and realize their costumes were highly inaccurate.
Just consider this my community service because my back hurts from picking up trash along the highway.
Since I already started talking about vampires, let无毛视频檚 continue with those suckers, shall we?
Some places let you trick-or-treat at night and it无毛视频檚 very rare that someone gives out garlic unless they无毛视频檙e actual vampire hunters trying to weed out any neighborhood Nosferatus.
However, a gray area exists when it comes to vampires needing to be invited into a house before they can enter. It无毛视频檚 always baffled me that good etiquette superseded a vampire无毛视频檚 bloodlust.
With a trick-or-treat scenario, a porch isn无毛视频檛 the interior of a dwelling, but who无毛视频檚 to say where a house really starts? That无毛视频檚 why kid vampires have to ask permission to step up on a porch if they want to stay legit.
It just goes to show that while vampires have awesome powers like immortality, transformation to a bat, hypnosis, real fangs and can sleep all day, their weaknesses are, well, weak.
But they无毛视频檙e not alone.
Everyone wants to be a superhero for Halloween, but think about their Achilles无毛视频� heel like Achilles and his heel.
There无毛视频檚 the tried-and-true Superman whose weakness is Kryptonite, so any green, crystal-like candy is not on the menu for those little men of steel.
Another superhero with a dumb weakness is Green Lantern, who无毛视频檚 weakness is the color yellow. Yup. Yellow. Fortunately, Lemonhead candy, Lemon Drops, the occasional banana taffy and Hostess Twinkies may be the only things the Green Lanterns have to worry about while canvassing the neighborhood.
But I know what you无毛视频檙e thinking because I无毛视频檓 dressing up as The Amazing Kreskin this year.
You无毛视频檙e thinking why am I wasting my time going over vampires and comic-book characters that are no longer that relevant in 2021, and I should search for what the most popular Halloween costumes are this year and go over the things that can take them down.
Aren无毛视频檛 you glad I thought about that and included this list from Google Trends with my contribution of their weaknesses?
1. Witch: Water无毛视频r a group of Massachusetts Puritans.
2. Rabbit: My lawnmower.
3. Dinosaur: An asteroid.
4. Spider-Man: An asteroid.
5. Cruella de Vil: A crappy prequel that nobody asked for.
6. Fairy: A fly swatter无毛视频nd an asteroid.
7. Harley Quinn: The Joker.
8. Cowboy: Oddly enough being called 无毛视频渂uckaroos.无毛视频�
9. Clown: No weakness无毛视频搉ot even asteroids. They无毛视频檙e pure evil. Let无毛视频檚 move on.
10. Chucky: Burned, shot, cut in half, melted, head pumped with air until it explodes, sliced by a giant fan, stomped in the head, and he keeps coming back for more in the sequel.
With that, I hope this week无毛视频檚 column helps all the trick-or-treaters out there and their alter egos survive this Halloween.
If that doesn无毛视频檛 happen, just do what I无毛视频檝e done and put the blame on Y2K.
