What does this say about us? We worship (that is, are scared shitless of) death. Our other big holiday? The excess of commerciality that is X-mess. We don't want to die, but we expect a reindeer herder to break into our house & leave stuff for us. (The exact opposite of regular human behavior.) How fucking stupid, childish & ignorant can one nation be? (Don't ask, you'll find out.)

We also have Halloween over here in the UK! I used to love getting dressed up and going out trick or treating when i was younger.
The Editor Responds:
It's turned into quite the adult event on this side of the pond. More partying & boozing than trick or treating. Indeed, when The Editor was younger, way back in the last century, it was strictly for the youth.
