~~~fuck you if you don't like john candy!~~~ NO JOHN CANDY HATERS IN THIS THREAD~~~

Monday is, of course, Halloween — and for many kids across North America, that means a whole lot of candy.

For Jen and Chris, growing up in Los Angeles, it was Candy all the time. With a capital 'C'.

rewatched Uncle Buck again last night and it occurred to me that the parents in Uncle Buck bear a passing resemblance to the parents in Calvin and Hobbes. Buck's brother's hair is longer and he's not as thin, but he's got those big ass eyeglasses, and standing next to his Buck-hating wife in the kitchen before they leave for her dad's funeral in Indianapolis, she with her Calvin's mom style haircut, they just suddenly looked like spot-on stand-ins. anyway, something to keep an eye out for next time you yourself have the pleasure of rewatching Uncle Buck.
