Thank goodness that Halloween is over and we can go back to a streaming movie schedule which doesn’t feature wall-to-wall horror movies, nor be greeted by foul Halloween decorations at every turn.
Of the loathsome pumpkins, we will not speak.
Also — and I must issue a stern Puke Alert here — we are also spared the appearances of celebrities and harlots (considerable overlap) in “fancy dress” costumes, an example of which can be found below the fold:
Don’t say I didn’t warn ya.
Gawd…is that Rob Schneider’s daughter? I don’t see any of her hideous tattoos on an otherwise hideous body, but they may have been airbrushed out.

Having grown up in the 1960’s, before the effort to make Halloween as big a deal as Christmas, I have fond memories of walking around the neighborhood, collecting sugar and seeing the grownups chat as their goblins ran about. It’s overdone, now. There seems to be a blower-inflated lawn ornament industry dedicated to the idea that no American should have room in his garage for a car. They’ve done Christmas and Halloween, and started on Easter. I suppose Arbor Day will be next.
So, tell me, was Guy Fawkse night big in South Africa? I gather the Nanny Establishment has pretty much gutted it in England.
OMG you hit the sore spot. I had to deck out our entire attic – one third for Xmas decorations, one third for Halloween decorations, and the remaining third for every other season and holiday on the schedule. I’m dreading this weekend as it means dragging my 60 year old fat ass up and down the rickety attic ladder and switching out all the decorations. All for my wife, alone I’d have not one single decoration for any season.
I thought that watching the strumpets dress up as harlots for Halloween was a feature not a bug.
The inflatables are out of hand. We don’t decorate our house at all. It’s a pain in the ass and the decorations take up far too much space.
