If you read the previous comments, you will find Brandon’s previous answer to that question.
“Halloween is just nothing” yes, you’re almost correct.
The modern festival of Halloween has lost its religious connotations (once All Hallow’s Eve) and is merely a very sucessful marketing exercise for the sugar industry.
In short, like everything that marketing and industry get hold of, it’s CORRUPT.
All Hallow’s and associated All Saints’ and All Souls’ days, as well as Dia De Los Muertos are still observed in the Catholic churches for their respective locations/countries.
Furthermore, it’s only as corrupt as you allow it to be within your household.
I do not buy commercially made candy – I make homemade treats for family, friends and longtime good neighbors. Since we live in a relatively isolated country lane with limited neighbors and almost no strangers trick or treating, this isnt an issue for me and my wife. This is the beginning of our candy making season, ending after New Years Day.
Decorations are homemade as well, as is costumes. We enjoy bonfires and ghost stories told by firelight, rarely do we watch any new horror films. The entire neighborhood has an All Hallow’s Eve block party yearly, which also starts off our small community’s charity donation drives.
We’ve been doing this for 25 years now since we first moved in, and it’ll be a tradition in our community until I breath my last breath.
Holidays are what YOU make them, not any other way.
Happy Halloween!
“…only as corrupt as you allow it to be…”
I heartily agree and good for you taking a principled stand.
For myself, not bring Christian, there’s no religious baggage to that (or many other) dates.
Culturally, I can ‘go with the flow’ for Xmas as a family and social event. Easter was always a good time for the motorcycle races (pagan- so,booze, loud music, fast women) but the other 21 or so “holy” days — pffffft!
Are you talking about my comment what I am saying is to Brandon is an apology and have him a few complements as the only that how sorry I am and I hoped that I’ll be forgiven for the things that I did so I am sorry tomokatu for a misunderstanding setbacks so bye
you know i became MUCH more interested in Samhain (all hallows eve) and christmas (yule or modrahnit) when i found out that they were originally pagan.
then i could REALLY say, “eff religion we can all just be nice to each other and have a good time!”
Hey Brandon it’s me again but I am not here to spam why because I atone my behavior but I am actually going to say I love the detail what you did with midnight looks anyway great job 👍 👏👏👏👏 (claping..after..t texting) really keep up the good work ✌ lol
Don’t worry it’ll come later hold your…uh taxes if you live in the east or hold your horses if you live in the west or hold your slaves if you live in the south and hold your land deeds and guns like you live north…that got really dark anyways the comic is free and he can always hold a page a bit late
This is gonna lead up to that dumb misunderstanding trope, where Marcy wants to fuck but Tim doesn’t and then Shadow will come in and and freak out and I’ve been done with this trope since it broke up Bulma and Yamcha
Its moments like these, that just reminds of these scene from that 70s show. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mPLJBZiKV4U
