Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

My parents give out full size candy bars and one little girl this year came up to the porch to get candy and stopped dead in her tracks, gasped softly, and whispered, "They're big"

It was adorable. I think this was the first time she'd gotten full size bars for Halloween, based on her reaction.

That is absolutely adorable...

[–] LaunchesKayaks@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It was. I love sitting with my parents when they hand out candy because kids get so excited about full size bars

Dude I'm 31 and (would never be trick or treating but if we suspend disbelief for a second) even I'd say "oh shit full bars!" Full bars are always exciting top tier candy on halloween.

Everyone is awestruck by full sized candy bars.

She’s not wrong. Somebody gives me M&M I’m going to be in love with them as well

Talking about stardew valley:

My friend: "who even marries someone just because they gift you sashimi weekly?"

Me: "I would"

This warmed my cold, dead, depressed heart.

I answered a doorbell last night and there was the tiniest little girl I'd ever seen walking. When I opened the door she responded like she just won a million dollars. Couldn't even form words over the happiness exploding from her glee as she jumped up and down, fists shaking in the air. It was indeed the cutest thing I've ever seen.

I looked up at the father and he was just glowing.

Very touching but why is it yelling at me

I NEED TO SCREAM MY JOY INTO YOUR FACE HOLES.

DO YOU FEEL HOW LOUD MY JOY IS?

I adore the little girl that did a doubletake when she saw I had bananas (and bags of popcorn and gummy candy). She went "O.M.G." as she took a banana.

Fruit was surprisingly popular. I ran out of oranges and had to substitute in banana. And I think kids liked the popcorn because it comes in impressively big bags.

[–] PersnickityPenguin@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah, kids love oranges and nanners. Sometimes my son eats like 3 bananas instead of dinner.

We give out toys, stickers, jewelry, temporary tattoos, stuff like that. Little cheap things we can buy in bulk. Kids love it. They go crazy over a light-up Halloween ring or a high bounce pumpkin ball and we're not giving them junk food.
