If you really wanted to be British you'd not get involved with this pointless excuse for shops to sell tacky shit each year.

yup. i'll just be apathetic and condescending.

So beautiful when Mitch and I agree on social issues.

Halloween hooliganism is a major problem. We need to end this backwards tradition.

why, what's wrong with sharing a little bit of candy
and having a little pagan ceremony to honor the dead.

and dressing up like Rocky IV?

[Mitchell]

There are usually ten Halloween related threads each October on here. The Naysayers are allowed a voice.

I've covered this before. My stance is hardening.

Fuck all as i'm not 8.

at her show, lily allen said she was gonna be Sporty Spice for halloween. i bet if she asked you to a costume party you'd change your tune, you stuffy brit.

Yeah maybe,

To be fair it's just a case of sour grapes in that when I was under 12 no-one in the entire country gave a shit about Halloween but in the past 15 years or so it's really taken off (blame US films/TV and the card greeting card companies).

Also people who would rather go to a Halloween party then celebrate my birthday are foolish. (obviously only if I know them.)

Really I just like moaning.

Fuck Halloween

It fits under the category of "Never did anything fun to do with it when I was young cos no one gave a fuck but now it's cool and American and we saw it on E.T." for me. Fuck that and blow some shit up on 5/11 like you are meant to.

Not one person has bothered trick or treating which has made me very happy as really don't like the whole commercial bullshit around this nothing day of the year and second because I ate all the sweets.

No, the commercialised bullshit is a recent thing. Send it back. Bonfire Night is sadly suffering from a month build up of tacky shit in the supermarkets.

I mean fuck all this

ha, some good topics in there.
you're right, we need more cricket threads.

[Mitchell]

Yeah, I should start thread about what to wear to cricket, what music to play while I watch it, what I should call the day, and have a series of countdown threads.

When I was in London there were a fair amount of Uni students (American and European) celebrating Halloween. I was currency-disabled so decided to keep it simple and dress as a mod since I had the right dress and boots in my closet. Unfortunately, 98% of the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth dresses like a slutty mod all the time so in the long run there was no costume, though I like to think I stood out for being a nonsmoker with good skin and firm abs. My friend studying in Aix-en-Provence decided to be "French" for Halloween which meant wearing a scrunchie.

So you're in favor of redistribution of wealth, but you draw the line at sharing the Snickers bars?

A man's gotta have principles.

Don't worry, Boo, I already covered this on the other board.

True, I pointed out that the candy isn't excess, it's bought from stores. Lining the pockets of the fat cats.

[James D]

I'm firmly with Mitch, Damo and any person who wishes death upon this holiday. Fuck halloween.

[le chaton]

I say this as a person who is going to a fancy dress party on frday.
