Does nobody else find it weird that so many grown adults get excited, plan parties, and decorate their yards weeks in advance for a so-called "holiday" that is just children dressing up and asking for candy one evening for about 90 minutes?
Halloween is really stupid.
Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years, and 4th of July are where it's at.
Thanksgiving is mid at best. I mean i'm happy to get the time off but there's nothing special about it. It was never much different than a regular family meal for my family other than what we ate was different. And that meant my mom had to spend all day cooking that meal in the kitchen instead of spending time with family or being relaxed.
Halloween is so much more fun. Kids have the chance to stay up late, be almost anything they want, lots of cool decorations, its basically a big block party on my street. Plus it's an excuse to watch scary movies all month.
