Confusing

Kids’ Halloween events are a bloody torture because I can barely recognize the parents as it is. In costumes and make-up, I’m completely lost as to who is supposed to be familiar to me.

    I was going to suggest playing along and talking to them as the character they’re dressed up as…. and then I realized you probably wouldn’t know that….

    1. Exactly. Klara had to name the characters for me, and it meant nothing. In our family, N is responsible for the popular culture immersion. I’m clueless. Sally and Jack, Maleficent, Cruella – I don’t know who they are.

  2. Haha, an entire year after we moved into our house, we were sitting in the yard handing out candy when a man dressed as Darth Vader came in (with his Luke Skywalker son). He seemed surprised and mildly miffed that we didn’t recognize him as the realtor who sold us the house. I doubt I would have recognized him even without the mask, but with it..??!?
