I'm not a "holiday" guy. Christmas and Thanksgiving are a fucking pain in the ass, as are most other faith-based "holiday celebrations" that the Hallmark Company has imposed upon us in the last century or so. I don't think my views are unique (or even rare), a lot of people get super bummed an/or pissed on holidays, as evidenced by spiking suicide rates around those times. I don't want to get up on a soapbox or anything here, but every day can be a "holiday" if you pull your head out of your ass and learn to enjoy life, rather than letting society dictate which "special days" should be enjoyed with family and friends, or which days the Christian faith designate as important enough to take off work. Fuck Christmas. Fuck Easter. Fuck Thanksgiving. Fuck fucking Columbus Day. I've said it before, and I'll most likely say it again.
That being said, I am a legitimate fan of HALLOWEEN, due to both its pagan origins and also the high weirdness it often inspires. I mean, any holiday the Fundamentalists decry as "Satanic" can't be that bad, right? LOOK AT THE ALTERNATIVES. But I'm preaching to the choir.
I don't actually have much to say today, but I did bring an awesome gift for all you basement-dwelling Halloween poo-poo-ers. I'm not even going to give you any hint as to what it is. Just go download THESE first so you'll have the proper soundtrack for a macabre Hallow's Eve wasted in front of a computer screen.
Beware, boys and ghouls. This rabbit hole goes DEEP:
HAPPY FUCKING HALLOWEEN, YOU FUCKING FREAKS.
Dude, they have ads for JesusWeen on buses here in my hometown. It's totally "a thing".
ReplyDeleteI grew up in Texas and I never heard heard of G-zeus ween until now.
ReplyDeleteHa ha! How stupidly typical of a group of so
ReplyDelete-called Christians (I assume, I couldn't get past the homepage) to try & claim a cooler holiday than Christmas as their own merely by assigning it a new name & supposed intent. What total(ly expected) BS! Ha ha! Christians kill me. luv ~stu
