Try THROWING candy at trick-or-treaters, holiday trade group suggests

My wife (and to be honest I do too) want to build a candy throwing trebuchet. Maybe something like this one... https://diy.dunnlumber.com/projects/how-to-build-a-diy-mini-trebuchet

 

I'm glad i grew up when i did. not in this age where people are afraid of their own shadow -

 

They say candy sales are up.

We’re just eliminating the middle man. Kids are unreliable and not everyone has them.

You buy candy, put it out, send your kids around the neighborhood to collect. You’d think they’d come back with MORE candy than you gave out? No, they complain that they’re tired, that some houses are too far to walk, it’s dark, it’s cold, it’s scary, my costume is falling off.

bunch of whiners.

And THEN they have the audacity to get mad when you take the Krackels!

 

And get sued by the ever increasing snowflake parents for causing ptsd of their gender non binary turbo cat piss powered kid?

NO THANKS.

 

The WKRP turkey drop comes to mind....

 

LMAO......shoot high in the air so it doesn't take an eye out.

 

Designed a few trebuchets. Interesting calc problem.
