Hardcore troubadour 12,662 Posted October 31, 2019 Why are grown ups wishing me a happy Halloween? STFU, seriously. For the rest of us adults it's Thursday. It's a Fockin kids play day. And if you're an adult and you dressed up today I think you're an a-hole. Happy Halloween! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I dressed up as a farmer and my wife went as a scarecrow. We spent exactly $0 on our costumes. We went to a charity event that's put on by a local real estate agent and his wife. They've done it for the last 5 years and have raised over $70K for Ronald McDonald House charities. During each of those years, a family from our community had a child undergoing treatment for a life threatening illness, so they were able to tell their stories about how this charity helped them when they were at their most desperate. We were also able to meet and speak with one of the founders of Ronald McDonald House and hear his family's inspiring story. We saw some friends, danced a little, won a couple of silent auction items, and were able to have a few hours of adult time. Feel free to call me an when I do it again next year. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tanatastic 2,061 Posted October 31, 2019 If it’s for kids or to try and score ass, I’m all for dressing up on Halloween. Otherwise I’m over it and it’s a normal day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Over here no. In America, sure. Used to, they made a big deal of us doing holidays in our classes. Used to give us money to decorate and buy crap. Now they seem to be on an anti foreign influence kick. So I don't even mention them anymore. I'll be off for two days for Christmas, so won't mention that either.

Cdub100 3,384 Posted November 1, 2019 I've got kids so we love Halloween in the Dub house. I make sure my porch light is on and pass out candy every year. I usually set up a big production in my driveway. Smoke machine, spooky music, flaming pumpkin etc... I also have some warm bourbon and cider for the adults. We had really sh1tty weather today and a new baby in the house so I stayed inside this year. If someone wishes you a happy Halloween just say thanks, you too. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
