mizTik Posted October 11, 2019 Posted October 11, 2019 Just curious to see what everyone's plans are for this year. I have nothing going on. I might do a stream with a friend and see if we can get anywhere with that. I gotta revamp my channel or start a new one possibly. Do like a horror games stream or something for fun.
xsugarskull Posted October 13, 2019 Posted October 13, 2019 I don't really celebrate it. Not a drinker. Not into parties. I mean the only aspect of Halloween I enjoyed, I am too old for now. lol
MrPicard Posted October 14, 2019 Posted October 14, 2019 It's not widely celebrated over here (it's treated more like a thing for people who like to have an extra day of carnival and, of course, some kids dress up and do the whole trick or treat thing but it's really not very prominent and most people won't open the door anyway, lol). So nope, not doing anything.
Parzival Posted October 15, 2019 Posted October 15, 2019 I moved. Because my landlord decided to be a royal asshole and evict me just for fun apparently. I have the misfortune of presently living in an area where Americans aren't looked upon too highly right now: California. Now I'm having to jump through hoops just to get Internet and phone service installed at my new place (right now I'm getting intermittent Internet through my Galaxy and the occasional open wifi networks that pop up). Despite never before having any problems with my provider, they've now suddenly decided to be incompetent idiots by missing two scheduled appointments, putting me on hold for hours during phone calls, then afterward usually transfer me to the wrong departments which results in me being placed on hold for hours again. So now you know where I've been.

I know there are a lot of very progressive people out there (not in the good way) and they tend to hate most holidays because it offends someone somewhere. I just didn't think it was a statewide issue.

They have been trying to get Columbus Day changed to Indigenous Peoples’ Day for some time now, but outside of extremely liberal areas like SF, no one seems to care and Columbus Day continues sailing onward.🤣 1
SaulGoodMan Posted October 23, 2019 Posted October 23, 2019 I have to go downtown that day to file some paperwork. Fun times! I really don't know what I will be doing that evening. Likely just messing around on my computer.

I remember reading something a few years back about outrage over people dressing up for Halloween and it was dealing with some stupid school. I thought people went to college to get smarter not dumber lol
ragedhunter11 Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 I take my boys out trick or treating every year. They are 8 and 9. My wife stays home and just passes out candy. I actually enjoy it because it was something my dad did with me and my sister growing up.
bluntTR4P Posted October 29, 2019 Posted October 29, 2019 I'm waiting for the day after. November 1st is the true holiday. I can go to the store and get huge bags of candy for 50% off. If I am lucky, they will still have some Monday and it will be 75% off.
buttlint Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 The wife will be putting on her student nurse outfit and I will be wearing my batman suit. Just like any other Thursday. 1

shawn Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 (edited) I am waiting to head out actually. My friend is going to be picking me up in about 40 minutes. Going to hit up a few haunted houses and hopefully have a bonfire assuming the rain stays away. Been raining all damn day which suuuucks! Edited October 31, 2019 by shawn

xsugarskull Posted November 1, 2019 Posted November 1, 2019 Well this thread certainly feels themed for Halloween now. LOL Wow. I did not expect that. You got a big laugh out me of with it though buttlint!
Faelwolf Posted November 12, 2019 Posted November 12, 2019 (edited) Didn't do anything. Not much goes on around here to begin with, and Halloween hasn't been the same since the wife caught on to the fact that no trick-or-treaters are going to come to a lone cabin in the woods in the dark, so my annual candy supply has dried up.

What kind of a world has this become where we can't let our kids dress up as monsters and wander unattended around our forests at night? 😢
