    What happens if you let them in? Has anyone ever done so, and can tell the tale? I've never met any SDAs, that I'm aware of, but my Mom once let some Jehova's Witnesses in and gave them coffee. Then they became friends, although Mom never converted. 

    With this being a spoopy night and all, make sure that no one who knocks on your door has all-black eyes (like an alien). If they do, you need to slam the door in their faces, and shut yourself in a room that doesn't have windows until they stop knocking and begging to be let in. surprise

     

    Years ago in my dad's house, one of the religious solicitors let themselves in... the front door opened to a hallway, sorta like a brownstone type building... The front door was open, and the screen door was unlocked because I was taking stuff from the car... I was about ten feet down the hall putting some stuff into a closet, my dog was just coming in through the yard door at the other end of the hall and shot past me at near the speed of light... the person managed to duck out before the dog mauled him, but the aluminum bottom panel on the screen door didn't really stop 75 lbs of teeth and fur.

    The dog hit the door so hard he bent out the bottom panel and the door wouldn't close properly... so the imbecile is standing there desperately trying to hold back the door, which was only making the dog angrier (he should of just let the dog eat him, it's only fair)... it looked like one of those horror movies where the alien is breaking down the escape hatch, with the dog's gnashing teeth poking out the bent panel and thrusting out the door every time he pushed hard... on the way down the hall the dog knocked over the stuff that I had been bringing inside, so there was all sorts of boxes laying around and it took a few additional seconds to grab the dog and hold him back...  which as I was doing the guy started talking about something religious... I just assumed he was praying for salvation from devil dog... I shouted for him to "get away from the door" as I was pulling the dog inside, and it looked like he did... but as I managed to get the dog a few feet back and to sort of calm down, the idiot pokes his head back in to say "I just wanted to introduce you to the kingdom of god"... 

    Well, the dog wasn't having any of that and heaved his head around hard enough to make me lose my hold on his collar, so I leaped on him and was holding him around the chest... and what do I see? The guy is still peeking in watching the whole ruckus. I think he may have said something else but I shouted something like "get the f- - k out of here before the dog personally introduces you to god right now!"... 

    In the process I got scratched and banged up, I had huge bloody welt from the dog's teeth banging into my arm, and when I got the dog calmed down I went to see how bad the damage was... what do you think I find?... a pamphlet stuffed in the door handle.

    WTF was that guy thinking? 

    Despite all the damage and him not responding to my initial commands, I gave my dog a treat, because based on how I could see him interpreting the situation, the solicitor was an intruder and the poor dog (who also got banged up) was just doing his job.

    Halloween ready:  Pumpkin carved.  Candy set out in dishes.  I never (well hardly ever), get any trick-or-treaters so it's all for me!  Yay!yes 

    Of course I've bought my type of candy. yesdevil

    I did, however, just a few days ago get a surprise visit from a Seventh-Day-Adventist delegation wanting to talk to me about the good word in the Bible.  They went away without a conversation and of course didn't get any candy. indecision

    Candy is bad for you... it contains sugar and that can make your heart fall out and make your teeth fat... you should give it to me, I've had my shots so it won't effect me like that.

    You didn't have any conversation with them? My conversation usually is... "Stop ringing the damn bell, I told you I worship Cthulhu, he that slumbers in R'lyeh and will rise again to rule the earth"... alternatively I also substitute Satan or The Flying Spaghetti Monster... They usually come to the front door, where I politely tell them I'm insane and then they go to either of the side doors and knock or ring the doorbells... maybe they are hoping I'll have changed my outlook on religion by the time I get to those doors... alas, I am only annoyed by that point.

    I'm very disappointed that I still haven't printed up my own pamphlets for my own wacky religion to hand to them... I've been meaning to do that for years.

    Suggestions noted! yes  And if you get here quickly you can have some of the candy.angel

    The funny thing is my wife just tells them she's Hindu... (because she is)... One person asked he what that was... so Hinduism is confusing, but Cthulhu isn't... go figure.

    [Vic's dog nearly ate a missionary it thought was a burglar.]

    That actually reminds me of this mockumentary series that was really popular in Norway in the early 00s. It was one of those shows where a few actors play all the characters. One of them was a young missionary (I can't remember if any specific denomination was mentioned) from Western Norway, who was supposed to be going door to door. One of the first things that happened to her was being attacked by a huge German shepherd dog, with the owner shouting "Hannibal, no! Do not eat!"  After that, the girl started carrying a metal baseball bat with her when she went to talk about Jesus. It was really funny, you just have to trust me on that. She was actually presented very sympathetically, though. Different country, different era. It's available on Youtube, but I won't link. 1: Stuff that's allowed on TV in Norway would often be considered highly offensive in other countries, and 2: It's not subtitled anyway.

    (Would you all hate me if you knew that I'm a tiny bit religious? Maybe not so tiny? Usually the reaction I get from people is along the lines of "You? Are religious??? LOL, you're kidding now!" But I'm not. *shrugs*)

    Um, happy Halloween?

    how do you pronounce Cthulhu?

     

    According to Wikipedia... "Lovecraft transcribed the pronunciation of Cthulhu as Khlûl′-hloo and said that "the first syllable pronounced gutturally and very thickly. The u is about like that in full; and the first syllable is not unlike klul in sound, hence the h represents the guttural thickness."

    I don't really understand all that... I just say "Kt-hool-hoo"... Not to be confused with "Cathulu" the streaming service for felines.

    Would you all hate me if you knew that I'm a tiny bit religious? Maybe not so tiny?

    Nope... that's not a bad thing... Heck, my father was a Roman Catholic priest (yes, technically I'm illegal or something), and one of my oldest best friends is very religious... (actually she getting oddly so as she gets older)... (she came along trick or treating last night with a Saint Jude bag... which is actually confusing)... even my wife is a little religious... at this point she probably remembers more about Christianity than I do.

    She gives me the sternest looks when I say irreverent things...  like when the kids were little and they asked what Ash Wednesday was and I told them "it's a holy day that honors the day Jesus got his first bicycle but he didn't have a bicycle license so the romans burned it and ever since then the church gives out free bicycle ashes on that day"... she just lightly scolds me and tells the correct story and I usually end up adding known (serious) historical accounts or facts... it's a thing we do.  My wife likes all religions, she grew up Hindu, but in India she went to a catholic school and her best friends growing up were both Muslim, and her sect of Hinduism believes all religions are just different incarcerations of god.  

    Although I'm not religious I always kinda believed that too, despite whatever dogma, that made more sense... to me, religion can sorta be more like a tool... perhaps a hammer... it's great for building things and providing shelter, but if you go around hitting people on the head with it, that's where it becomes annoying... for me I chose a less traditional hammer... the squeaky hammer... like the colorful plastic ones for little kids that when you tap it on something it goes "Squeaky-Squeaky"... a fun hammer.

    I'm partial to the big, inflatable ones you can bring to the beach or pool, that are actually meant to hit people on the head for fun. That was not a religious parable. I hope.
