Actually, it started here :cuppa:

What did? All Hallows Eve, or the fetishisation and commercialisation of Halloween?

 

Because, if you mean the former, you're right*. If you mean the latter then we're going to need to have words, sunshine.

 

*In so much as Samhain is a gaelic festival and the church just plonked a celebration on top of it to get some of that sweet sweet acculturation.

All hallows eve.  The trick or treating also dates back to these shores and ewerks land.


The commercialisation is all the gun loving mofo's

Modern day Halloween is as far removed from All Hallows Eve, and that was from Samhain. So that sign, telling people to fuck off is bang on.

When we were in the US a couple of weeks ago and it's mad how much they go for it.  This is weeks out from it too!  Already loads of houses with pumpkins all over them etc. 

We always go out for a meal on trick or treat night as basically I am a miserable cunt.  I just cba with it.  We never went as kids at all.

The rule round our way is that if you're happy to take part, you put a pumpkin out. So we tend not to get people knocking on. The wife does buy a few things, just in case, but usually we fuck it off entirely.

 

Little lad is too young to get excited about it and I'm hoping by the time he's old enough to want to go out, the paradigm will have shifted.

Quiff, only I can see the accounts you're making and even if that wasn't the case, grown adults don't really get worked up about the things you're using them to say when they come from a psychotic loser on the internet.

 

Call your therapist and book some more appointments, you need them.

Just shut the back door on my lass hanging the washing out, telling her "we're not heating the street". 

 

Tried to lipread what she was saying through the window, but couldn't work it out. I'll find out soon enough.

She keeps turning the landing light on as soon as she wakes up, even though she doesn't come downstairs for a good half an hour. 

 

I keep turning it off from downstairs. I'll have to bust out the Blackpool illuminations line if it continues.

Get the house fitted with Smart Bulbs, get a staff and a robe, and declare yourself the Keeper of the Light. Anytime she forgets her place, plunge the house into darkness.

It costs 0.1 PENCE to run a 60W LED bulb for an hour. Typical accountant, counting the pennies and ignoring the thousands of pounds your divorce will cost you.

The one on the landing isn't LED anyway, so what have you got to say for yourself now, hospital trolley boy!

Tehn I'm going to break the habit of a lifetime and agree with Fish. Get a smart LED bulb and turn your landing into a disco.
