i was joking, its some house in virginia, they do it every year.

but OMG, i would die to live in a house as big and beautiful as that one.

I enjoy halloween, just for the parties.

EMMAH - If you live, have you seen those guys at rideau that set up a painting nearly every day and preach for christianity? They were telling me that halloween was VERY EVIL and satanic. I walked away

That's why it is The Good Times.

Do you know when they start carving them? March?

I like Thanksgiving and Christmas because there is usually a big dinner and heavy drinking involved.

There is no "Halloween dinner" which takes some of the fun out of it.

Halloween skips dinner and goes straight for dessert.
Another telltale sign of the Devil's bad influence.

How can the owners of that house actually get any shuteye with all that light?
It's even worse when christmas comes along.
There are people who save up the whole year so that they can pay the astronomical energy bill they get at the end.

I like Halloween for the horror movies and candy I steal from my sister as she trick-or-treats. Plus I just generally love autumn.
Other than that, it is just a season to dress trashy for a lot of girls which is annoying.

Edit: I forgot one thing,

To celebrate Halloween this year I'm listening to Bad Moon Rising and Sunn O))).

yess!

Hall0)))ween!

Halloween is fantastic. It's been years since I've actually celebrated it in any significant way, but it's still my favorite time of the year.

Halloween is next to nothing here. If people do something Halloween related in Australia, especially trick-or-treat, it's like; why bother?

i don't mind halloween.

halloween is fun in new york. my friends are having a party in their loft after the parade. free booze.

holy moses, cantanky!!

having a little sibling is the best on halloween. i have to make zero effort to get candy.

hahahahaha.

abuser of minors.

every-e- their corruption is SO WORTH the peanut butter cups.

i bet.

this all reminds me that i need a costume. i had my murderer ensemble ready, but it is just too cliche.

*post pic?*

holy martin luther.

for halloween i'm going to put on black sparkly tights and a black sparkly turtleneck and a black miniskirt and black platform shoes and black fuzzy cat ears (black velvet bellbottoms + black furry coat if it's cold) and call myself a cat. a glamorous pussy.

don't forget to post pics, cantanky.

if i can. i won't be here for halloween though and my 35mm doesn't have a flash on it (for the parade, the light will be too low for the film i like.)

by the way, you've been here like, what? an hour? and haven't posted a picture? what's wrong with you?

have fun at the parade, halloween in new york must be weird and a blast.

no, like a day
and i did but most of them don't have me in them, they're in the photog thread but there are...two of me in the other one. one is me on the phone flipping the bird and the other is me and some crazy random guy who looks like nick cave in washington square park.

excuse my ignorance. i'm the one who hasn't been around.

you are excused.

Fuck no, I love Hallowe'en!
I just played my first ever shooowwww!!!
Pixies cover set! With best friends! (Hallowe'en cover shows is a tradition here!)
We were dressed as the Blue Man Group, and we decided, since there's only three Blue Men in the Group, and we are four dudes, that we would make me be Tobias (from Arrested Development!)
After the first song, one of the guys was like, "as some of you may know... there are only three Blue Men in the Blue Man Group... this guy is our understudy". I then ripped of my pblack pants, revealing really-really-short cut-off jean shorts. (Fans of Arrested Development better laugh!!!)

Halloween's cool. One of two days of the year that I always listen to Bad Moon Rising all the way through. The other one is the Fourth of July, which I actually do hate.

The commercial shit sucks, but that's true whether it's a holiday or not.

4th of july is the funnest shit ever too. greeting card companies haven't destroyed that one yet.
you guys are nuts. i like holidays except valentines day and easter.

i so want to be in ny for fourth of july at least once.

don't be there on puerto rican day

My girlfriend wants me to go an aerobics class with her on Halloween. That'll be pretty horrifying.

Halloween usually means insane & sickly high concentration of mid-term work coupled with a week of people throwing parties. It is a difficult beast to navigate.

Some day though I'll have a girlfriend who knows how to do sweet makeup and then my scare book of horrors will open up and we will be Halloween champions.

Three words: Candy Corn Rifles.

Until then though, I'll have to be content with being a joyless fisherman, casting nets repeatedly into the sea of sludge that lions couldn't remember and Melville only wished he sailed.

NONONONONONO i love halloween!

today i'm going out with a big group of friends and trick-or-treating. ahhhhh i'm excited!

ah cankers! you gonna be @ the greenwich village parade?

that shit is FUN.

yes it is! i went two years ago.
new york is fantastico.

yes!! i went in 2004. all these japanese tourists wanted to take pictures with us.

i was drinking vodka shots all night so i was particularly "social", ha ha ha. hm, i should have charged them.

good idea. great fun it is, though.
