"How will we know it's Charlie Brown when he shows up at the door?"
"Don't worry, he's an idiot. His costume will be f___ed up one way or another."
Then the community association head makes the sign of an L against her forehead and everyone laughs.

Not to derail the thread, but man everyone was terrible to Charlie Brown. The rocks in his halloween bag, clearly his parents suffered some kind of horrible speech related handicap or were horrible drug addicts that mumbled everything, never bought him new clothes, made him cut his own hair, and didn't share in his activities like making a halloween costume.
His so called friends were horrible to him, Lucy with the fake psychiatry booth and pulling the football away and verbally abusing him. His sister treated him with emotional standoffishness.
I wouldn't be surprised if he showed up at a 10 year reunion with sleeve tattoos a raging heroin addiction and having suffered through an 8 year dominant slave relationship with Lucy.
But back to your regularly scheduled not scary halloween thread.
