Tired of all this pumpkin and plastic skeleton crap everywhere. Thanks, marketing ghouls rage-cry

What, are we going to start celebrating the 4th of July next? Might as well with the NATO membership I guess

    That sounds like your parents were in tune with halloween just fine, america also has plenty of prudes complaining about people having fun in october too

      Yeah I remember trick or treating one year and a neighbor answered the door and just said "we don't celebrate Halloween" leaving me baffled and without any candy

        yeah that happened a lot with me and it happens more as you get older people really hate pre teens and teenagers trick or treating

        there was a strong feeling that the holiday is an americanism people only reluctantly get involved in
