This one in particular brought back a lot of bittersweet memories, so I kind of want to join the ranks of the non-living at the moment. Otherwise, Hallow'een's pretty cool.
I'm sorry. I think us up in the north-eastern area took your snow. You can have it back. The fact that it snowed in October freaked most of us the hell out. We don't want it back until December when its Christmas.TLS14 said:You don't have room to complain. Perhaps you should make a trip out to Utah sometime. Snowtobers are fairly common here, and it's rather odd that we don't have one this year.

Ah, you share my sentiments. The Americanism part mainly, but I'm sympathetic about the pagan holiday.DragonFae said:The fact that it's here in Australia, in technically the wrong time of year. Halloween has taken over the pagan sabbath of Samhain. Now, while for the northern hemisphere that's sunset on November 1st, in the southern hemisphere, it's May 1st. It's all so wrong.
Oh, and also, just because it's now being celebrated here. My childhood was perfectly fine without it. Why must it now be a thing here? I knew Americanism was going to take over to world.
Funny thing, I talked to a police officer who is my teacher, He said the poison candy or the like is rare. And we live in a big town. Sometimes they go years without hearing it and when they do its always a relative or friend who did it as a prank.TheDarkEricDraven said:On one hand, kids can be annoying, but the girls are so cute in their costumes, and giving out candy is really fun. On another, I can NEVER get a costume ready, but that is my own laziness. Oh, I know. The adults. They act really weird, to the point it creeps me out. Some are all "Don't eat posion!" and others just let their kids wander around the town till morning. And the candy isn't that great eaither.
