We have some anti-holiday folks here.

You would figure getting dressed up and getting candy is a lot better than getting drunk and making an ass of yourself, but that's just me.

Like I said before, I think Halloween is a good thing (Valentine's Day is a chick's thing... no offense...) And I really don't think you are ever to old for it. Maybe trick or treating, I can't imagine anyone giving me candy on Halloween now. But maybe a nice big costume party or something.

BTW what is with the Canadian dislike of the holiday, do they give bad candy up there DM and Crono?

That's a lie and you know it. You're never too old to get drunk and make an ass of yourself, but dressing up and getting candy is for kids. Seriously, if some 17 year old came to my door asking for candy, he'd get a boot in the ass right out the door.

No, Valentine's Day is a Hallmark thing, and they aint getting one single god damn penny from my pocket. If I have a girlfriend on Valentine's Day, she can have the honor of making me a steak while I play video games.

While I don't like drinking, I'll admit that you're never too old to get drunk and make an ass out of yourself...

However, when the reason you look like an ass is because you're drinking alone in your room, that's a bit of a different story...

How is it different? There's beer, there's video games, and there's my arrogant, jackass natured attitude. What else should I do? Tell my friends to come over and sit in my room so I'll look cool?

Oh, it's Halloween night, I should go out, get drunk, and party with my friends? How is that different than any other weekend night? I don't believe in Halloween, it's horsesh*t, and I choose not to celebrate it in any way.

i agree with DM bout Valentine's day, and the fact that drinkin and making an ass of yourself is pretty damn cool!

i also agree with mickey bout easter...but disagree about christmas, since i get like a week or 2 off school, im happy...and presents are involved sometimes. my parents tend to be really cheap.

on Halloween my friends and I usually just have a casual party. the guys start playing PS2, but end up watching lame scary movies due to what I like to call "chick influence". My buddies and I usually have a poker night every other week, but our game last Halloween was the ULTIMATE. We played for like 5 hours, I won about $22, and I ended up walking home a few miles in the middle of the night. It was insane.

So yeah....Halloween is for everyone. Trick-or-treating is for kids. Whenever like 16+ year olds come to my door, I tell them to screw off. They usually don't even wear a costume.

I stopped trick or treating when I was 14. There's other stuff to do at that age. Leave the free candy to the tikes. I know a lot of parents that don't let their kids trick/treat after age 10. Meh, I break things on halloween go to friends' parties.

I have experienced getting popped on the shin. 5 months later, there is still a mark there.
