Happy Halloween! I’m taking a stand against the commercialization of Christmas this year in two ways – first, I’m not buying Christmas stuff this year. Oh sure, there will be presents, but no cards and wrapping paper unless I make ‘em. No decorations, no candy you can’t buy throughout the year. No tree, but then, I’ve never had a tree since I moved to Vancouver.

Secondly, I’m going to embrace Halloween as much as I can this year. Here, have some Halloween!

Why the hate you ask? No hate, I’m just pissed off that stores have started bringing out their Christmas stock at the beginning of September. I remember being shocked when they started bringing it out before American Thanksgiving was over, let alone Halloween, and now, Canadian Thanksgiving. I don’t need four months to buy fucking tinsel. I don’t need tinsel, but you know what I mean!
