I fucking hate halloween, it annoys me intensely. Especially when adults get giddy about dressing up for it.
If it was genuinely a festival about all things spooky and had some kind of cultural backdrop (beyond some vague, obfuscated pagan guff) then I could possibly get along with it, but all I see is plastic pumpkins and other orange commercial shite.
Since I've now got two nippers I have to get involved and they love it but fuck me...few years ago we used to have a small box of 'plastic spider/witch/pumpkin' shite but over the years, the small box has now become 3 large IKEA storage containers taking up valuable space in our loft
