Brought my daughter to a trunk-or-treat and got this so so fun sized pack of peanut M&M's. More of a trick than a treat really.

What is a trunk-or-treat?
It's where you take your kids to teach them to take candy from a stranger's trunk.
Yeah never trusted those. It also lazy parenting. Instead of taking kids door to door like you should, parents take their kids to a parking lot (most times at some church) to gather candy all at one stop.
Speaking of my job doing one of these things. Some dumb.
Or it's efficient parenting. People might not want to spend a bunch of time walking house to house. Not all houses want to be walked to. Trunk or treat offers a quick single location of like minded people, a safe environment, and quick turnaround.
The most efficient is just buying a bag of candy and handing it to your kid.
I mean if you're worried about efficiency while fucking trick or treating like that you might as well. It's about spending time with your kid (or their friends when they are older) in silly costumes. Its not about how fast it gets done. Thats crazy shit.
