Holloween

ekulu by ekulu · Aug 21, 2002 · 174 views · · · Journal

Here is a little something i came up wit last holloween and i couldnt

wait until October to post it.

To All JW's

You see them everywhere, parading up and down dark streets,

dressed as witches, ghosts, superheroes, and the like. They go from

door to door asking for candy. You know who they are...Trick-or-Treaters. Seeing that you don't observe this pagan

holiday, you might not know what to say when these children cometo your door asking for "treats". Well, here are a few suggestions:

  • "Sorry, I'm not interested.", or, "I'm not interested in holloween."

  • "I don't speak any english."

  • "Sorry, I'm busy, can you please come back at another time?"

  • "I'm in the tub!!!"

  • "We're not at home right now."

  • Ask them, "Why do you people come so often???"

  • Pick up the nearest phone and say, "Sorry, I can't talk right now. I'm on a long distance call"

  • If all else fails, simply slam the door in their face without saying anything

    Even if these helpful excuses assist u this year, don't let your guard down! Those Trick-or-Treaters are bound to be back next year, asking for treats again!!!

haha, thats pretty good.


one year I went out in service the morning after halloween, some smart guy came to the door and said, "who are you supposed to be? Jehovah's Witnesses? haha, nice costumes" Then he offered us pagan sacrifices in the form of chocolate and nuget.

One word...water guns filled with ice water. Ok so that's not one word, it's really one THOUGHT.

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder ·

LOL! it's a nice thought

That's kind of cruel. Just because they're enjoying their pagan rituals doesn't mean you should persecute them.

reaf reafOG 2002 ·

Ohh I wish i would have thought of that one!

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder ·

what's this "Holloween" that we're talking about? is it anything like "Halloween?"

deanh77 deanh77Founder ·

The origin of this word comes from the phrase "All Hollow's Eve".



Traditionally a night when it was said that all the hollows would come out and be free. The streets were full of rotted out tree trunks, submarines, and empty coconuts.


It was quite a scene.

in the new jenifer aniston movie-the good girl. this guy is supposed to be all christan and stuff so somebody says to him about halloween and he goes "no thank you i am not a pagan, but enjoy yourself in hell." i read it in a review and was laughing so hard.
