What's the point of it? Why has it now seemingly become a week-long celebration of all things fake blood and cunty? Am I strange for never taking part in anything to do with it?
Discuss.

Can't stand it either Dharms. I do quite like the mouth breathers that think they've come up with really imaginative costumes though.

Can't stand it and "Trick or Treating" is glorified begging for cunts.

Ha, ha, you'll all fucking change when the sprogs come along ;D
Anyway, think yourselves fortunate. We currently have skeletons and shit all over the bloody house, so when my two beloved brats go out T&T-ing with their mum, guess which poor sod will be here opening the door every fucking five minutes with the bowl of sweets?
Unlike last year when I ignored the knocks and subsequently got a massive bollocking off the missus. Half of her friends' kids had tried, having been told I was in, and got nowt ;D

Ha ha! Turts that is brilliant! How did the missus explain that one? Doorbell broken?
The old people's no trick or treaters sign has gone up on our window
Do kids still do penny for the guy these days?!

Load of American shite. Hate all the Facebook pictures of people shittily dressed as zombies, it wouldn't be so bad if people tried to be vaguely original.
Bakeries seem obsessed with it which I always find a bit weird. Who thinks a window full of fake insects and spiders is going to make people desperate to eat their food?

I went to Greggs yesterday for the first time in about a year, all because the spooky muffins looked nice.
;D

It's a load of fucking horsespunk. If kids to try to beg sweets or money off me I simply answer the door and shout "What?" in a very annoyed voice. They usually take a step back and fuck off.
If my kids mention Halloween I tell them that the Amerians just want them to rot their teeth so they can sell them Coca Cola as they will only be able to use a straw.
Fucking pile of Yankwank ..... We should tell them to stick it right up their fat arses. We'll be having fucking thanksgiving next for fucks sake.
Bollocks to it ............. And fucking Bonfire night ..... Just so cunts can let off explosives .... it should be banned, and kids should be prosecuted for begging when they are fucking 'penny for the guy',ing .......... PENNY .......... They want a couple of fucking quid now ... I just save any copy pound coins I end up with and give them to them ;D

Halloween - not sure, used to enjoy as a kid but NEVER went trick or treating. That's purely yankwank (like that phrase will be using that a lot.) Bonfire night + UK tradition - surprised u don't want to encourage the anti-establishment-ism Mr S...

Haven't had a trick or treater in the 8 years I've lived here.

Blinds drawn, lights off and ignore the door. That's the plan for my night anyway.

It's a bit of fun.
Made a pumpkin with little one, LED as opposed to a cande as she's only a 3er. A costume ready for a little people's party tomorrow.
Got bags of sweets in for T or Ters should they knock (my gift of cans of lager a few years back was probably innmapropriate).
Bonfire night is more my cup of tea, JTF will be getting another couple of hundred quid off me at the weekend fr a good few kilos of high explosive (for the kids obviously!).

Seems like an excuse for teenaged girls to dress as cats, for that reason I'm all for it.

I imagine Halloween in Mexico to involve pushing a donkey dressed in a black cape out of a belltower or something similar.

I was against it, as it went through a phase in the Uk where surly teenagers would be asking for money, but here becasue there isnt a bonfire night (they take the whole burning the Catholic thing too seriously for some reason), its quite a big deal, but the hundreds of kids that come around are by and large tiny ones who just want the sweets, sadly, there are few sexy teenage ones but sometimes the mums dress up. I always end up running out of sweets and end up having to give away tins of soup and lightbulbs and random shite I can find.
