Halloween was fun for me. I watched Repo The Genetic Opera in the morning, it's cheesy but it's a fun little macabre film. As for the kids, there were only 2-3 groups that went around knocking and they were pretty polite. We usually give them bags of malteasers or haribo multipack sweets. It's a fun time for the kids and the people that dress up as scary film/game characters! Plus I made my Halloween game in time so that's good too.

Are they meant to catch the cheese, or is it the Englishman's equivalent of the greyhound rabbit?

I think so. The first competitor down the hill (upright or not, which means padding yourself well and just hurling yourself headfirst down the hill is probably the most reliable tactic, if not the most sensible one) wins the cheese if nobody caught it.

It's descended from a Pagan fertility ceremony, but considering the cheese has been involved since the 15th century, you'd have a hard time getting it off any scruff who did catch it.

I guess it's a bit late for this, but whatever. Since, I'm not in my hometown, I usually don't dress up or anything, I just simply gather with some friends and we watch some movies. This year, a big majority were girl friends, so we had a bunch of tasty treats.

This is a Milka cake. Not in the Hallo spirit, but tasty nonetheless.

These spiders are caramel cupcakes with chocolate fudge on the top and inside, and legs made of jelly sweets.

These are sausages rolled with dough and sauce, making it look like they're mummies. I know, but they're tasty. Roll with it.

These eyes are cooked eggs, with tomatoes and olives to make their iris. The blood vessels are Tabasco, which make them spicy and delicious.

These are orange "pumpkins" and they really look like it. Also, those are M&M's.

This is a graveyard. The graves are made of Oreo, dirt made of Brown sugar, grass made of green sweet potato flakes, floor made of shredded Oreo and chocolate mousse. The worms are, well...jelly worms.

Truly awesome ideas and it was a fine great evening.

I had a massive argument with Sekto on Facebook about it but anything I say gets disregarded because I'm a grumpy teenager.

MA 11-05-2013 12:19 PM

really?

why do people get so het up about Halloween? it's just another fucking commercial holiday where you can do whatever you want anyway, like every other day. Christmas is the same.

Wings of Fire 11-05-2013 01:32 PM

Christmas has better songs.

Also Nightmare Before Christmas is a Christmas movie

Come at me bitches

STM 11-05-2013 01:37 PM

Guy Fawkes Night has colourful sky explosions.

Suck it.

MA 11-05-2013 01:38 PM

i totally agree. with both posts.

no one come at me, thanks.

Nepsotic 11-05-2013 01:56 PM

How about ON you?
Sorry
And STM, I never knew anyone who calls it Guy Fawkes Night, I always called it Bonfire Night.

Wings of Fire 11-05-2013 02:02 PM

Budding revolutionaries like STM like to spread their seditious rhetoric.

MA 11-05-2013 02:07 PM

i didn't come here to learn.

I actually had that discussion with my friend the other day when we were talking about when it becomes socially acceptable to start listening to the Sufjan Stevens Christmas albums again.

Other than the NBC soundtrack, is there much you can call Halloween music?

Bullet Magnet 11-05-2013 02:50 PM

I just put on some Enslaved.

Slog Bait 11-05-2013 02:51 PM

Midnight Syndicate, I guess?

Does anyone dispute that fact?

Steamer_KING 11-05-2013 04:24 PM

Was there something to dispute?


Wat?

I maintain that it should be watched in late November, exactly between Halloween and Christmas.

I'm willing to bet money Sekto would.

Rex Tirano 11-05-2013 11:50 PM

Steamer King that food looks so tasty. Are the eyeballs eggs?

Seconded.

Bonfire night is better than Halloween. I got my toffee apples and my sparklering on, son.

Man, you guys are cunts. And not even in a funny way.

Nepsotic 11-07-2013 09:16 AM

So are you. Everyone is. It hasn't been funny in a long long time.

STM 11-07-2013 09:44 AM

Fuck off am I, I just say what I see. And what I see is top notch, pointless douchbaggery.
