August and September need some more/better holidays

i support halloween's expansionism as a counterpoint to the christmas pact

Not a single Labor Day decoration for sale in sight. Makes one think.

porky-happy Halloween is in October. OCT-ober, eight month. Now stop thinking and buy this ludicrously overpriced shit

They're trying really hard to make Summerween a thing when it's literally a joke from Gravity Falls about how they wanted to do a Halloween episode but the constraints of the show required it to be in Summer

[-] [email protected] 19 points 1 month ago

I love Halloween but I hate how commercialized it is. I want to see more handmade spooky decorations / costumes and less overpriced licensed franchise merch

and yeah putting this shit up in July is crazy. imo spooky season starts no earlier than the autumnal equinox

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

It is impossible to be spooky if the sun sets after 7pm.

  1. the one comment from the megathread is forever burned into my consciousness

  2. I like to wake up the day after Halloween and tell people "Woohoo! It's Christmas season!" until it upsets someone.

One year they sold those 15 foot tall skeletons and now there are people who still just have them standing around in their yards year round

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

They just slap on a Santa hat and call it a year.

[-] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago

[-] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

Costco, one of America's most beloved shopping destinations. They all look exactly like this

[-] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

They really do, even in overseas locations.

ahh ok never been in one. thought u have to be a member to go inside

[-] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

Nah I'm okay this this. Better than fucking Christmas.

[-] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

Some retailer figured out that people buy Halloween stuff a month before and since they've been pushing it back, trying to force customers to buy more shit during the summer. That way Q3 stuff looks better and everything isn't lumped into Q4.

I can beat that. I routinely see Halloween shit in stores in February. Halloween wasn't even a thing here before Americans got to us.

[-] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

There will be no need for this after the revolution because halloween will be year-round

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Seeing as it will finally be possible to officially grieve the victims of capitalism, it would only be appropriate to make remembrances year-round

[-] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

Yeah and we put out all our autumn stuff as well two weeks ago at my store. It gets earlier every year.

Anyone who truly loves Halloween will recognize this as sacrilege

Same in Poland, if someone would ask the question "how deeply were you culturally invaded by US"
