Me too. I think it's a hideous pagan celebration of death, but with chocolate! However the kid is wildly into it, so that's fine, I can slap on a silly hat and keep my mouth shut. ;)

That's not why I hate it, but we both hate it so that's cool.

I hate dressing up, pretending, and other things that people call fun.

That's ok. We can watch Matlock and drink tea and occasionally throw candy out the window at the ravening hordes. It'll be like an ep of Walking Dead only much worse bc kids are more relentless than zombies.

Dredd, you decorate your house all ghoulishly? May we see pics? Please. You can send them privately if you want.

I didn't decorate at all this year. I landed a pretty demanding FX gig at a haunted house in which I ended up becoming supervisor of ALL the effects - so not only do I have to worry about my own project, but everyone else's too. Needless to say, I've been working on-site for the last couple of weeks and not home much... so yeah, no time for decorating. :hang:

Speaking of which: Tonight is opening night and we go live in 45 minutes. I probably shouldn't be dicking around here.

You'd hate me IRL too I imagine. :D

*puts on sheet to look like ghost

Fortunately, I don't think it's possible for little kids to get into my apartment, you have to have a key to enter the hallway....
 
Re: The Noodle Compound

I gave out way too much candy today at work... was cool to see all the lil rugrats dressed up. I hope I end up working late again tomorrow so I don't have to feed the ones that come to the house!

We don't really get Halloween here. They're trying but it's not catching on.
Several reasons.
Not really a Dutch thing.

Also, on the 11th of November over here they celebrate St. Martin. That involves children with lights going door to door singing St Martin songs, and when they're done singing you give 'm candy.
 
Re: The Noodle Compound

Is he the one who discovered the pine Martin? Because I can see myself celebrating such a holiday if so.

No. The Dutch version is Sint Maarten. Saint who, when he saw a poor man shivering in the cold, took out his own cloak, cut it in half and gave one half to the poor man.
Not seen any pine martens around him. Would be a good addition though, as they sneak up your trousers looking for.....well, candy I guess.

What do you do when the pumpkin you're trying to carve keeps thrashing and screaming, "I'm not a pumpkin, I'm Tim, you lunatic!" ?

That sounds far less interesting.
