When you're a kid, it's an excuse to get and gorge yourself on free candy. When you're a teenager, it's an excuse to be a petty criminal asshole and egg people's homes and cars. When you're a college student, it's an excuse to get drunk and stoned and fuck a slutty nurse or witch or Ewok. And, finally, when you're an adult, it's an excuse to see how many dead kids you can fit in a Hefty bag. (Pro tip: It's not nearly as many as you can cram into those 55 Gal. heavy duty construction bags. They cost more, but it's totally worth it.)

I won't be celebrating directly this year, but will still be getting into the spirit.
Or drinking some spirits, I should say!
And then you can take the candy they've already collected! Win/win, really.

No it's not. It's an excuse for retailers to sell masses of overpriced crap.
I may have just fallen a little bit in love with you.
It was inevitable, really.
Let me rephrase, For me it's an excuse to eat good food with friends.

I don't need Halloween, or any other special evening, for that. If I go out with friends for a meal, a quiet mid-week evening is better for good unhurried service.
Valentine's Day is the worst evening of the year for overcrowded restaurants, flustered chefs and staff, and for good places having their off day. Other restaurant bad days are - Mothers' Day, Fathers' Day, and around Christmas.
Our local supermarkets have special packs of Halloween everything - cakes, biscuits, even Halloween baked beans. The costumes sold for children and adults are flimsy and many are serious fire hazards particularly as we in the UK use Halloween as an excuse for fireworks as well.

It's an all in one day or eve. You get gifts of candy, you can have sex with costumed sluts and if you go pagan for an eve you can celebrate New Years. Christmas, Valentines and New Years all in one.
I concur the contractor garbage bags are so worth the cost. Spend the extra 10 bucks and avoid possible lethal injection. Don't be cheap.

Add some skeery movies, and I'm in.
A fun night! As long as I'm allowed to cower behind people and ask when the scary parts are over.

Holidays are always a double-edged sword. Maybe triple-edged, even.
I recognize their purpose, but at this stage of life I can do without most. All the ones I enjoyed abundantly as a child I pretty much work through now.
Halloween is/can be fun, but it's also got a severe sell-by date and cut-off point, no thanks in a large part to the marketing of it that gets worse with each year, each generation. There is no lingering feeling after the celebration that dampens down gradually, like Christmas. Nobody fondly leaves up the decorations for weeks or whatever. As soon as the last drink is served and drunk at the parties and November 1st begins, it is gone.
Like, GAWNE gone. Nobody is feeling it. Walking around with last night's costume on the next morning is like doing the walk of shame or something!

When I read this I thought it said
Blow bubbles much when you fart was the first thing that entered my mind. *laughs

Eh. To each their own.
Halloween is the one holiday that can be just as much fun for adults as kids. Personally, I like to spend the month of October getting in the spirit. The days are getting shorter, the weather a little chillier. It's my favorite time of the year.
I'm cynical about a lot of things, but if you can't enjoy Halloween, I'll just shrug and have fun with someone who can.
