Eff You, Non-Scary Costumes

I honestly don't get it.

Since when did it become okay to wear costumes like Peter Pan or some sort of fairy on Halloween? Honestly? The tradition is to wear something scary to blend in with the souls from the underworld that may be milling about (courtesy my history teacher, Mr. Cain). Something tells me these cute little bumble bees and butterflies don't have much to do with the ways of Hades.

Tsk tsk.

Parents, you ought to be ashamed of yourself for letting your child dress up as Harry Potter and go from door to door. At least the Cullens are VAMPIRES, which are SLIGHTLY REMOTELY SCARY. You grew up in the 70s and 80s and whenever else... that was when Halloween was still scarier than it is now. That was when tradition was still intact.

But no.

It all went to Hell.

Pun only slightly intended.

BFF main girl Abby (as Clever Girl Tia would say) is going as a vampire, with a look that is inspired by Twilight, and slightly reminiscent of 30 Days of night, what with the bloody chin and chest and loads of cleavage... which is actually more Twilight-y.
BFF main "pet lesbian" (not really a lesbian) Sam is... well, I don't know.
Megan, another dear friend of mine that I love more than a gay boy should love a female with female parts, is going as Mrs. Lovett. Hurrah for Sweeny Todd!!!
And I, myself, am going as... something.... with a blank-faced mask... and rubber knife.
MWHAHAHAHAHA!!
Sort of The Strangers meets Scream in a Michael Myers sort of way.
Kay?
Kay.

But yeah. We're probably gonna chill at Sam's, then run around her neighborhood like douchebags for a couple hours. Stairwell Buddies (I'll explain later) Jayson and Becca might be joining us, along with their lesbian lover, Rosie, an AP Psychology class mate of mine. She dressed as something truly scary today - A GIRL!!!! AHHHHHH!!!

But yeah.

Well I guess TTFN, and TTYL.
