when i was young, halloween was all about the scariest things imaginable. now all you see is dopey grins on everything. what happened? i'm 25, but i'm still a kid inside, and the kid wants to know why it all fell apart.

blame it on the lawyers - they take the "f" out of "fun"

i like your defination of political correctness. To me the completed concept of political correctness is approximately being cheating and hypocritical. people who're attempting to make a sturdy impact or no longer disillusioned all of us, everywhere, at any time, has to chunk their tongue 1000 situations an afternoon and say meaningless issues they do no longer fairly mean. i might particularly say what I mean and be common with each and every physique. Honesty can sometimes look merciless yet i might particularly learn the fact than cope with hypocracy used to spare my emotions.

I think we used to use halloween as a cathartic,a chance to get scared and experience fear in a semi-contolled situation.Now,life is scarey enough-school shootings,terrorism,mass murders...we need escape now.

Squatch,
Parents want their kids to have a good safe time. I figure most parents want their children to be cute and cuddly rather than looking like a creepy, scary monster.
