Halloween Rant

Post by Lord Poe »

Ladies and Gents, and all you others....

I need to vent on the shadowy attempt to cute up Halloween.

Everywhere I go, I see a LOT of new Halloween decorations with cutsy faces on vampires, ghosts and witches. You've seen 'em. The "Terry's Village" monsters with the rosy red cheeks and cherubic faces, etc. in place of the HORROR, the GORE, the.....GUTS of Halloween.

Its getting so bad most stores even refuse to use the word "Halloween" anymore. Now it's "Happy Autumn!" or "Happy Harvest Season"!

Eat me, you pricks. You will NOT sully the only holiday I give a rosy red shit about.

That is all.

And a paragraph and a couple sentences isn't exactly a full rant...

Oh hell, I can go on and on about this. The Christian Haunted Houses, the pamphlets being handed out on the evil satanic roots of Halloween...

But I thought everyone had enough Halloween horror in regards to 20,000 word rants..

I'm not into the whole goryness of Halloween. I don't need a special day to do stuff like that. I do like the over all evilness of the day, stealing candy from little kids, eggin' houses from two blocks away with a potato cannon, running over the little kids without reflective material, hitting kids dressed up like pokemon with toy pokeballs... filled with cement, finding the lazy bastards who leave a bowl of candy outside their door and say just take one, empting their bowls, and then ringing their doorbell and tell them their out. I can't wait till I have a house so I can set all sorts of traps for Halloween, giving up [apples/cans of food/rocks/etc. and then waiting by a window with a weak paintball gun or some sort of slingshot and eggs. Using a thumbtack to poke holes in all my candy so responsible parent's kids can't eat it. Hand out flavored condoms.

Man if there is a hell, I'm so goin' there.

Of course I HAVE to know how to Celebrate Halloween. It's my mom's birthday.

Now for those idiots who want to ruin a perfectly good Cathlosized Druid Holiday/Celebration of death and the dead along with the dark side of our Psyche. Fuck you, you also have to loose the Other ones you stole TOO.

Witness the Glory and Behold what we devopled Younder three years ago!

Ladies and Genetlment I present the Egg-Sniper Rifle!
:D
We talked about building it for quite awhile the merged some 2 Inch Diamter Plastic Sewage Pipe with a tack on the end plus the Compressed Air, Its to loud but the plus side is one achives Relablie Accurasy of Egg-Yoke and Shell at roughly 52 Meters and is very easy to hit anything under that range(Anything else is damn near impossible) The Tack is there BTW to pre-crack the egg so by normaly the Yoke/Gooey stuff is already out of the egg and precceding it before the Shell ever hits the intended Target

Reminds me of being in the "Nerd Dorm" in College, we built "Various Semi-liquid Substance Filled Prophilactic" launching quickly assembleable catapult for the express purpose of shelling the Administration, and Jock infested dwellings, along with the Really annoying anti-Halloween "Christian Haunted House". I know waste of good Condoms but hey were nerds and you just can't get balloons to handle some of the substances that we were filling preelaunch.

OK, just my two cents worth. Why the hell do the Christian's want to take over Yule and Easter as a so called Christian holiday and denergrate Samhain. If your going to steal all of the old holiday's and make them over for your own either steal them all so every body can enjoy them or leave them all the fuck alone, damn it.

You forgot that they stole Valentines day, from a Roman Orgy Holiday, as well. God forbid they allow us to celebrate it the way it was originially intended, men dressed up as wolves, women beating them with whips.....

They only beat them with sticks when they didn't want to be fucked, so generally it started out.

Now I have that 60's rock song stuck in my head.

The one which has the corous:

"Jesus Saves, well he'd better save himself. From Boring Glory Seekers who use his name to kill."
