"Are you supposed to be a Crossing Guard, or a pedophile?"

LOL.

Thanks for the laughs Mr. Ebert.

"Don't you have children?"

those are hilarious and of course very scary! what was the response to "Are you supposed to be Sarah Palin?"When I read that I immediately imagined the response to be: "why yes I am and I brought my hunting equipment with me! You betcha!" (bang*)
*bang not necessarily related to hunting equipment. might have been a champagne cork or something. I don't know

quick Halloween movie question while I'm commenting: what do you think the best Halloween movie is?

"You're no Jack Kennedy."

"Apparently deodorant is not part of your costume."

'i didn't know they had electric wheelchairs during the civil war'

Was at a party with a costume contest. After the winner was announced, a guy who was dressed up as Kanye took to the stage and claimed that another person in the office had one of the best Halloween costumes of ALL TIME.

Ebert: I just stole that and posted it up above.

Give it up for Will O'Hargen!

These had me laughing =)
I can't give you any of mine 'cause I haven't been to a Halloween party in yeeears and they weren't the best. I don't think anything interesting was said! Sad.
Happy [late] Halloween

Scariest this I heard on Halloween: Did you hear they greenlit Saw VII... in 3D?


A zombie was singing "I will survive" during karaoke. Now I've seen everything.

Great stuff, Roger. Have you ever seen Jimmy Cannon's piece about New Year's Eve? That's what this brought to mind.

"Are you the Ronald McDonald from the rehab center?"

"Get your hands off my besom."

Are you supposed to be last week's tepid sushi?

Just so you know it wasn't an unhappy ending after all:

Ebert: Sacreligious, I'd hazard a guess.

Ebert: Sacreligious, I'd hazard a guess.

---I wouldn't say so. The disclaimer says "No deities were harmed during the filming of this song production."

Next Halloween, I'll have to hire some guy to hide in random places, and say these as people pass by. That will give them a scare.
