Toast 16,140 Posted October 31, 2016 Something I don't understand. Here in the UK kids (and adults if going to a party) dress up as witches, ghosts, zombies, skeletons and other creepy Halloween-themed things. But in the USA it seems to be anything goes for Halloween fancy dress. When did that happen, and what's the point? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Josco 49 Posted November 1, 2016 Speaking personally, I dislike the current Hallowe'en 'celebrations'. I find the whole idea of children, some quite elderly, banging on doors demanding sweets. And where is the pleasure in decorations that are dour and miserable; cobwebs, corpses and the like? Someone who dislikes Christmas is called a humbug, what is the Hallowe'en equivalent? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drol 11,948 Posted November 1, 2016 Yesterday some kids came to my house and tried to get some sweets. I ate their livers with some fava beans and a nice Chianti. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SirC When my daughter was in year 6 (age 10) her primary school held a fancy dress disco all her friends were really snooty about it and decided they weren't going to dress up she was determined to do so and she went as the BBC kids TV character Raven complete with drawn on beard and Raven staff not only did she come home with a big box of chocolates for best costume all the Year 3s followed her round. However it seems to have given her a bit of a but as now 10 years later she goes to conventions and 'cosplays' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

While I would agree that 'My Little Pony' is in one sense horrific, WTF does it have to do with Halloween? 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RadGuy 1,614 Posted October 13, 2017 Happy Friday the 13th in October! The day ghouls like me have been looking forward to for months. I love this time of year. The colorful leaves. The bitter wind. The orange twinkle of a jack-o'-lantern on each front lawn. The cawcaw of the crows on those gloomy evenings. Enjoy the season, folks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
