MyLifeIsAverage

Life is pretty normal today.
I grew up in a college town, and one Halloween our doorbell rang and we opened the door expecting to see trickortreater—but what was in front of our open door—was another door! Like, a full-on wooden door, that had a sign that said “Please knock.” So we did, and the door swung open to reveal a bunch of college dudes dressed as really old grandmothers, curlers in their hair, etc, who proceeded to coo over our “costumes” and tell us we were “such cute trick or treaters!” One even pinched my cheek. Then THEY gave US candy, closed their door, picked it up and walked to the next house. MLIA

I grew up in a college town (for a while) It was quite interesting, aside from the college kids partying until dawn and the sleepless nights I spent.

wow some people dont understand that if everything on this site was "average" it would be dull. ie. " today i woke up and brushed my teeth. MLIA" does that please your needs? sheesh!
 
ihatecheese Good: 1 Bad: 4 2 months ago
Totally agree. A while ago I read the oldest posts on MLIA and it was sooooooooo boring...
 
livershiver Good: 38 Bad: 4 4 months ago
This is a really funny story, but its probably a lie. Either way its still funyy. however, its NOT average. And you can say this is a bad post, but its still true. really sick of seeing non-average posts on MLIA. It completely defeats the purpose of the wbsite. This story was great, but definitly not average enough for this website.

Anony-Mouse Good: 2 Bad: 2 3 months, 3 weeks ago
That wouldn't work in the Northeast US. Every house I know has a front door that opens in, but a storm door that opens out. If you put a door in front of the target's door, they wouldn't be able to open the storm door because it would be blocked by yours. I assume screen doors would cause the same problem in other parts of the country.
