Just noticed my color choice happens to be spot on.

You have to notice that the status goes below 0. So there is a vacuum inside the stomach which just sucks all candys in reach in automatically.

Not the Kids' fault! 😁

DraziBlack t1_iujt67d wrote

Technically wouldn't a vacuum be at near or absolute 0 candy? This seems to imply the existence of some kind of anti-candy or dark-candy particle.

I think the anti-candy comes from that house that gives out toothbrushes and notebooks on Halloween.

Yikes...my comment was damn near a copy of this.

I kinda feel like "fear of scary dogs/etc" and "fear of talking to adults..." would decrease over the course of the night. Candy is a hell of a motivator.

Yeah that doesn’t make any sense. It also bugs me that there’s more candy in the stomach than candy collected.

You raid your own stash and pilfer whatever your group mates don't want. Going trick or treating with a picky kid was the greatest.

I think as it gets later and less people are out, the fear sinks in

matts41 OP t1_iuiusjs wrote

Also why did it always feel like we were trick or treating at like midnight? Totally dark out. Now it seems like kids trick or treat at noon.

Kent_Knifen t1_iujqt5a wrote

Come to think of it, yeah 🤔

I remember it'd be pitch black out, parents would have flashlights, and the streets would still be bustling. I swear we wouldn't get home until after 10, and now they expect it all to be wrapped up before 8.

Yeah, 9-10 was our latest. We didn't start Until it was dark, 6-6:30ish

I blame fall and winter, where the sun sets in some areas at 11am and doesn’t rise again until the next day at 9am.

Why does candy in stomach increase at a much greater rate than candy collected?

carljohnjacob t1_iuj2gvu wrote

How does candy in stomach stay above candy collected for almost the entire night?

khaeen t1_iujpfed wrote

You raid your own houses stash before going out the door.

Units different.

Candy is stomach is measure by size of stomach(small/medium). Candy in bag is measure by size of bag(extra large).

cause the candy collected goes up slower as they eat it.

I keep wondering where all these free drugs are being handed out on Halloween. I see you have the same problem finding them.

Haterbait_band t1_iuiwsas wrote

It just doesn’t logically make sense. Someone that has a lot of drugs has them for use or to sell. They’re going to just give them away and draw unwanted attention to their home? Stupidest thing I’ve ever heard if you think about it for a minute.

Only thing that makes sense is if candy bags were used for smuggling purposes and it got mixed up with real candy, but still pretty unlikely since that would be an expensive mixup.

A guy murdered his son and blamed it on the candy, the news ran with it.

phazedoubt t1_iuixsu4 wrote

For sure. It would be someone's last 'day on the job' i would imagine.

khaeen t1_iujpcnt wrote

Dealing drugs to parents/teens who visit on Halloween and stick around long enough to have a conversation move in that direction? Sure. Giving that shit for free to kids? Ain't nobody got time for dat.

diox8tony t1_iuk5x5a wrote

Smuggling needs performed all year round, so the drug dealers would use methods that work all year round to be efficient. Changing it to match every holiday would be a waste of resources and drug-brain-energy.

Like a teddy bear, or dvd case, is all year round

Haterbait_band t1_iukaw7v wrote

That makes sense. I was just tiring to think of a reason why there would actually be drugs disguised as candy that was then handed out from a person’s house to children. I guess there isn’t one, but we hear this myth every year I think.

My brother got razor blades on his last trick-or-treat outing a few years ago.

But, in all fairness, he wasn't wearing a costume...was 24 years old...bearded...and the razors were accompanied by a can of shaving cream.

The old man who opened the door expecting to see a child in a costume wasn't amused.

If you're trick or treating and someone gives you drugs, thank them. Drugs are expensive.

you forgot the interest rates of the candy collected and the plummeting resale value.

I hand out razor blades to children every year. This data is not accurate.

jl_theprofessor t1_iujasgo wrote

I'm presuming the combination of strangers and scary dogs drove OP to flee, thereby contributing to the precipitous drop in "amount of candy in stomach" toward the end of the night.

Also collected candy thrown out by parents cause they could be razorblades or drugs due to a tiny crease in the wrapping.

Did y’all really eat so much candy you puked? Did I just have self control?

This implies that you're eating candy faster than you're collecting it
