Everyone has something from their trick-or-treating days that they just hated.  There was always some piece of candy that was just awful, or some house that gave out toothpaste rather than something sweet or chocolatey.  Well, if you thought you had it bad, Neatorama passes along this list of the 11 worst trick or treater hand-outs.

I have to say, I’ve never gotten anything odd in my trick or treat bag.  No dental floss, no Chick tracts, no really weird things.  Just lots and lots of sugary candy and the occasional sample of spare change.  I kind of wish I had gotten some crazy things, but only in retrospect.  As an adult, they’d be hilarious stories to share, but as a kid?  I’d have been miserable!

Apparently your favorite type of candy can be determined by the stars.  As a Leo, my candies of choice are Fun Dip, Starburst, and KitKats.  I’ve never had a Fun Dip, but I love Starburst and KitKats.  I think I’m gonna have to try Fun Dip, just to make sure they’re accurate.  Purely scientific!

Commissioner Roger Goodell gathered 32 NFL owners for one big question.  One of the league’s most wanderlust-stricken franchises is looking to move again.  The Oakland-Los Angeles-Oakland Raiders, tired of gutting it out in a run-down stadium, were once again looking for greener pastures.  Only the Miami Dolphins refused to cooperate.  With a vote of 31-1, […]

In 2006, an injury to Dallas Cowboys starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe opened the door for an undrafted free agent by the name of Tony Romo to take the helm of America’s Team and lead the Dallas Cowboys to an early playoff exit.  Bledsoe went from starter to afterthought in a season.  Now, the circle continues […]

For 89 years, Oscars has never had a major mistake.  The last few Oscars might have had a few flubs, but at least they never got the most important category of the night wrong.  Well, that’s now changed, all thanks to OG Bonnie and Clyde legends Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.  When Faye Dunaway called […]

Tom Brady has been wildly successful, if controversial.  He’s the first quarterback ever to win five Super Bowls and only the second player to do so after Charles Haley.  Unlike Haley, Brady won all his Super Bowls with the same team, the New England Patriots.  The only thing that seems to be able to stop […]

Ben Affleck, no matter what you might think of him, is a talented actor and director.  He’s got the goods, but he’s smart enough to know when he’s in over his head.  All along, since he took on the mantle of Batman, he’s had his eyes on writing, directing, and starring as the Caped Crusader. […]

In May, students for the for-profit American College of Education were running into some problems.  Their access to email accounts and course information was locked down by Google, who had disabled their accounts.  The reason why?  A fired IT worker for the American College of Education locked the school out of their Google cloud account.
