That's kind of creepy, but with the very localised skinlessness you look more like a victim of war and some sort of chemical weapon than, say, Freddy Kruger's little brother.

What is wrong with you people? Halloween is a holiday where it is socially acceptable to dress up like a freak and scream shit in a crowded street. That's amazing.

That would be issue number one: it's no different than any other day of my life in this respect. In fact, it being socially acceptable tonight (which, I might add, it certainly isn't on this side of the Atlantic) is a mark against it.

And besides that it's a totally festive, exciting nation-wide celebration.

Issue number two: if it isn't actually nationwide (more like nationdusted) as so here, lacks an actual sense of festivity and when what is actually being celebrated has been long lost from the minds of pretty much everyone (Celtic harvest festival, more recently hijacked by Christianity for All-Saints), these points don't add up to much.
And frankly, the hideous tack that starts befouling the supermarkets around August and clashing horribly with the Christmas decorations don't put me in a good mood for it.
