People like Halloween again because......

Why do I HATE Halloween? Let me count the ways....
  1. Everything has to be scary.
  2. Every female thinks it is OK to leave their standards at home and be in a competition with every other slutty nurse and maid, to see who can be the sluttiest.
  3. People are RUDE.
  4. You spend to much money on costumes. Costumes they tear up and in some places have to cover up with a coat anyway.
  5. October is the start of freezing cold weather and what better than to celebrate 9 months of cold than with a nasty goblin at every entrance to every store.
  6. My 2 year old daughter is now terrified to do most things cause she is afraid of what will be there. She asks me every day if she is going to get scared by the TV or by something in the store, etc etc....
  7. All the dumb vampire movies, and zombie movies, and if they make one more "Saw" movie.........
  8. Parents don't let you eat a third of the candy you take home anyway.
  9. Everywhere you look there is gore, and blood, and murder, and death. Who wants to be constantly reminded of such horrible things for weeks!
  10. You have to spend tons of money on candy that some rude, greedy kid takes (more than his fair share mind you) .
One reason to like Halloween....
  1. One step closer to family for the happier, jollier, friendlier, more hunger statisfiying holidays!

Your dad says you sound just like he does. And I happen to agree with you both! Dad says you're turning into a grumpy old woman. You're right, though, too many people use it as an evil outlet. And it is impossible to shelter your babies from it. It's everywhere. It used to be much more innocent.

I agree that that Halloween is to expensive and scary. One thing I do like is after Halloween sales on candy and cheap dress ups. The best part is the day after Halloween I get out my Christmas music!

I am with you Nikki. And why do my kids pick the most obscure costumes? Jarom wants to be Count Dooku from Star Wars. Good Luck finding that for under $10 on the walmart rack.
