I never went trick-or-treating as a child - it was just an American thing in those days - but it's everywhere now. We often get complimented on how much effort we've made to make the house look like a spooky haunted house of torture and pain, but really it's just the outdoor summer toys (which are occasionally used in winter too, when I've been particularly bad). Halloween does have the advantage of being the evening on which I can answer the door without having to conceal my chains, I suppose, which is nice.
Nothing terribly spooky about today's captions, I'm afraid, but I've tried to choose some at the darker end of what is already rather a sombre spectrum.
Ooh - like a college reunion? I wonder what activities they've got planned. |
"Erm... oh gosh, now look here, errrrmmmmm!" etc |
With the birds. Where else are they going to go? Don't worry, though: they're not predatory. Those curving beaks are just for cracking nuts. |
Don't worry, Mistress will be back soon. How long can you stay in a beach bar with a bunch of guys, anyway? |
Oh go on, then: have a Halloween-themed extra that is explicitly not about Halloween.
