    Lol I grew up in a family that never had any holiday decloration. To me, those feel like luxury.

    But honestly tho, I didn’t really care much about holidays, other than the fact that there’s a day off that school/work gives.

    I never dressed up for halloweeen, I think it was silly, even from a young age, I never liked cosplaying, especially not cosplaying monsters. I think I only went to like idk maybe 2 trick or treat, then I just never did it again, didn’t like it.

    Am I anti-social or something?

    Idk wtf even is a “normal” childhood, I never had a good childhood. I just see kids having cool stuff and I never do. Ugh, capitalism…

    Sometime I just watch some TV shows or Anime and see child-characters (or flashbacks of characters of their childhood) doing fun stuff and I’m like… idk… so jealous of it. I feel so… emotional about it, I just daydream, get obsessed with idea of a loving family, imagine my self as those characters having fun.

    Ah I wish I can just reincarnate and do it again, hope for a better family, in a good country, I wanna experience a fun childhood.

    Ah, fuck… I wanna cry

    What is life?

      I can’t help with most of that, but I get joy from handing out full size candy bars and hanging out with friends on Halloween. For like $100 I have enough full size bars to hand out all night, and two distances of sacktoss for kids to win another piece/pack of Halloween pokemon cards. We sit in the driveway and set up videogames and drink (lightly since you don’t want to catch public intoxication) just running the sacktoss for 5 hours.

      Seeing kids so happy makes it all worth it.

    Fewer and fewer of those adorable trick or treaters every year. More and more of that cheap tacky plastic crap littering front lawns. It makes me sad for some reason…

      It seems like a lot of families go to trunk or treat events instead of going all over the neighborhood. I suppose it’s easier, but it’s sad.

      The inflatable decorations are my pet-hate. If you don’t keep them running 24/7, they look like a bunch of garbage strewn across the lawn.

    If you really wanted to scare the neighborhood, buy one of those and assemble it to look like the Dark Souls giant skeleton dogs

      Are you really even celebrating Halloween if you don’t have a 1:1 animatronic of The One Reborn in your front yard?

    You all should be sourcing the skeletons from sustainable local sources like the closest cemitary.

    There’s a house near me that has an army of different animal and human skeletons up all year long. For at least 2 years now.

    I’m trying to figure out how I can incorporate the 12 foot skeleton into my 100sqft studio apartment.

    If I leave the windows open and it’s scaling the side of the building and I move my bed I think I can make it work.

    The people on the fifth and sixth floor may complain, though.
