My sister is 23 and still dresses up and goes out knocking doors for candy... and I find it weird but I let her do her. It got me thinking, at what age do you think someone should stop Trick r Treating at? Just curious.

Honestly, I'm of the same opinion as other people here. If you're in a costume and yell "trick or treat" at my door, you get candy. I don't judge people for shit, live your best life man.

Everyone has feelings, everyone has their own problems, and it feels good to be happy. If I can make anyone's day a little bit better I will. If that means giving candy to a fat, bearded, 40-something man alone in a costume alone, take it brother.

Weird? sure, I get that too. Personally, I won't go door to door for candy either, it's not something I find fun. Will I gatekeep someone from having their definition of fun for..... what ~$2? in candy I was going to give away otherwise? Nawh.
