YES I'M A HALLOWEEN SELL OUT




Mocked I have. And even scoffed. For years my cry of "Halloween is Australia, outrageous, is there no depth we will not sink too to be like the yanks" rang out across the suburbs every time October rolled around. I laughed at my sister taking her children trick or treating, and not even behind her back like normal, but right to her face.


It's not that I have anything really against the old All Hollows Eve except you know, Christian, but besides that it kinda looks like a fun tradition. Except it's not our tradition, it's stolen from a country that sells candy corn cola (it's true, see I have proof).
Except this year when my little one sighed " I love Halloween" instead of screaming "what the hell" and slapping her, I said " do you darling, why don't we buy a pumpkin and some decorations and you can dress up and give out lollies to any trick or treaters".
What the fuck!!!!!!!!!!!!! Who is this women and what has she done with my brain? And where can I buy some of that cool candy corn cola from? no really, where?
