Transcript:
Francis: I'm the Riddler! Man: You certainly are! Teddy: I'm Electro! Nate: I'm Gina Hemphilltoms, a smug, grade-grubbing teacher's pet! Nate: He said, "Well, aren't you an unusual little girl" and gave me a Necco wafer. Teddy" HATE when that happens!

Never dress up as a middle school girl when you could have dressed up as joker or spawn

I got some beef bouillon cubes once for Halloween. I didn’t know what they were until I tried to eat one.

I had 2 college co-ed come to my door once; I told them that my landlord refused to turn out the front porch but if they like they can treat me to a trick. They never came back.

Gina’s related to the late Shirley Hemphill. Who knew?!
As for candy, Necco wafers are the ultimate Halloween candy punishment, along with Mary Janes and Bit-o-Honeys—the trifecta of Halloween candy disappointment.

That’s correct! Gina has a hyphenated name because I gave her a surname (Hemphill) having forgotten that I’d already given her one a couple years earlier (Toms). So I hyphenated them. I think it suits her.

Agreed Teddy.
Observer fo Irony over 10 years ago
Today I live in my own home and I leave the porch light off. When I lived in the apartment it was 2 blocks away from college dorms. But hey my excuse would have been that it was the season to be scary.

Maybe he needed to drill down a level and go as Gina wearing a Halloween costume.

What would happen if Nate said that to Gina’s PARENTS? I see that coming perhaps.
James Lindley Premium Member over 10 years ago
At least he didn’t give you a rock.

One Halloween when I was Nate’s age, I had long-ish hair and thought it would be amusing to wear one of my sister’s dresses, white stockings, and a ribbon in my hair. Sort of an “Alice in Wonderland” look. My friends and I thought it was a great costume because I was barely recognizable as me. Unfortunately, NONE of the people who answered doors believed I was wearing a costume, and it got tiresome to explain that everyone in our group were all boys.
