Nah Nah Nah Nah Baaaatman!

Evidence... circa 1980ish. What a sweet photo of two kids dressed in Halloween costumes. There couldn't be anything sinister about this... could there???

About 30 years ago, a little girl wanted nothing more than to be the Robin to her brother's Batman. Her "beloved" mother dressed the unsuspecting girl in a nurse's costume and told her she was Robin. The girl, naive and unversed with the ways of the world, happily proclaimed herself "Robin" to all of the neighbors in her Memphis Tennessee neighborhood. Thank you, Ryan, for helping that little girl seek redemption.
It only took me like 3 times to make this Robin costume... and LOTS of cuss words.




In other countries, this is called begging or pan handling or freeloading off of your Uncle Tim.




These two super heroes could eat their own weights in candy. We should have bought stock in Hershey's.

Quoting Kyle, after reading this whining commentary, your Mother says: "Buck up Buttercup!"

Besides, neighbors feeling sorry for you gave you lots of extra candy.
