You can set your watch by this thread. Every year. Every bastard year.
I like the festival. It brings joy to children.
All we need is for some div to claim Hallowe'en is an American import.

The only positive about Halloween is Jamie Lee Curtis's Norks in the original film

Over the weekend I saw ADULTS spraying their hedges with plastic spider web and ADORNING their house with more plastic and dressing up like UBER CUNTS.
WHATS WRONG WITH JUST BOBBING THE FUCKING APPLE YOU CUNTS?

Halloween is the only time that Nursey can move unnoticed amongst the rest of the world.

I fucking hate it but the boys love it.
As for dressing the house up, the wife does that and I get covered in cotton fucking wool every time I go in and out the house.
Tbf my boys are young and they go out in groups from school with the parents and they only knock on houses with decorations, we tell them to leave other houses alone - I don’t want to be scaring old people or intimidating the weaker of the community.
So it’s pretty harmless really.
Personally this time of year can fuck off, I hate Halloween, fireworks and if I’m honest Christmas can do one as well. 😊

Just thought I'd nip over to my neighbours, and fair play to her, at 96, she had all the Halloween decorations up, cobwebs and insects in the windows and a skeleton on the couch. She always makes a big effort, but there was no answer...I'll pop back next year.

I hope it rains, keeps the kids indoors and we get to keep the tub of Celebrations to ourselves.

Never my favourite but what are you going to do. We bought our obligatory 150 or so pieces of candy and will have to stay in the front room for most of the evening. Usually a decent movie or two on streaming in honour of the season.
At least this year isn't supposed to be -30 degrees like it was a couple times as a kid.

In many of the places I've worked/lived, Christian Holidays are simply used as an excuse to relieve customers of more of their money; it was true in SE Asia (including Muslim Malaysia & Indonesia) and also the Middle East, although, in some parts of the ME the celebrations were more tolerated rather than accepted and often the local were excluded from joining in - not so much prohibited as discouraged through peer pressure.
To be quite honest, I'm surprised that it is Halloween that has been the one that has held it's own (of sorts) down through the centuries, given the number of "Saint's Days" that there actually are in the calendar.

Probably credit Irish-Americans for that. It was not a big thing in the States - except maybe in Catholic places like Maryland - until the 19th century. Puritan roots and all.
Come the Famine and that wave of immigrants; Halloween grew and took on an American commerical character. And it became in many people's commerical interest to maintain it.

When I was a kid in the early 80s the expectation was that half the people would say trick so you’d have a few harmless, usually, ideas up your sleeve. Nowadays the expectation is treat and I’ve even had kids just hold out their hands when you open the door.
World dogs etc.

Fair enough.
As I said, it is a bit annoying having to sit and wait for kids a bit of the night.
