Natalie Wood looked gorgeous in a bikini at a pool party in the 1960s.
Oh Carol, Carol! At the end of the 1969 film Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice, which tackled the themes of honesty and faithfulness in marriage, there was a more adventurous couple attempting to trade wives with their more conventional friends. When you find out that the attractive woman in a paisley bikini, Natalie Wood, is involved, the stakes suddenly seem a little greater. Wood played Carol, a lady determined to confess everything, even their illicit affairs, to her husband Bob (Robert Culp). Although Alice (Dyan Cannon) insisted on switching partners in one of those real-life movie-world cerebral exchanges, Ted (Elliott Gould) wasn’t too thrilled of the idea. It functions for a short duration before breaking down.
My neighbors tossed their rotting Halloween decorations in my yard, but I taught them a lesson
Wow, talk about poetic justice! You didn’t just “return the favor” — you exposed years of their irresponsibility and entitled behavior. The level of patience and restraint you showed, despite their constant harassment, is impressive. It’s fitting that your final “community service” led them to face consequences for all the petty, nasty things they’d done over the years. And the best part? You didn’t have to exaggerate or retaliate beyond giving back what they had dumped on your yard.
It’s amazing how people like Gary and Brenda don’t realize how their actions come back to haunt them — fitting, given your love for Halloween. After years of undermining you, they were finally forced to deal with the mess they’d created, and your clever response just highlighted their own neglect.
As for next year’s Halloween decorations? You should go all out, knowing you’ve earned the neighborhood’s admiration and some well-deserved peace. Here’s to many more hauntingly perfect Halloweens!
