So.... it's been quite a while since I posted anything in my journal here so... in the spirit of Halloween, I propose a rant is in order! =D So let's get to it!

I'm sick and tired of hearing kids at my school talking about going trick or treating. The legal cutoff age is 12. If you're in high school you should not be trick or treating anymore. Especially juniors and seniors. I hate it when teenagers come around trick or treating. XP They tend to take more candy than they're allowed to and take all the good stuff away from the kids who are actually legal trick or treating age. What I really hate though is when someone goes to a house with a bowl of candy that says "Only take 1" and they take more. DX
Then there's costumes! I can't tell you how many kids I saw trick or treating without costumes! Carrying around a scythe and wearing normal street clothes is not a costume! Oh, and Pajamas aren't a costume either! I can't believe that I asked a friend what she was going to be for halloween and she said "a pajama girl." ...WHAT THE HECK IS A PAJAMA GIRL?! DX You are a pajama girl when you go to bed at night. It is not a costume, it is normal clothes. Be creative and stop being cheap! XP Oh! And when people carry around pillow cases as a candy bag is annoying too! I know it holds more than most regular bags but it doesn't matter if you think about it. I have to say I have never seen anyone fill their pillow case the whole way with candy.
And while I'm on the subject of costumes, I'm also tired of hearing girls say that their costume is something with "slutty" or "sexy" in the name. "8D I'm a slutty pirate!" "Tee hee! I'm a sexy maid!" And it's even worse when the girl is by no means "sexy" in any way, shape or form to begin with. Then there are people who decide to dress up as something that they have absolutely no idea what it's even about. Like fashion styles. I hate it when people say they're going to be a goth for halloween and just wear alot of black and pretend to be all emo. Although what really irks me is "harajuku" and "lolita" costumes. They never look anything like Lolitas or anything you would see in harajuku. It's kinda borderline racist if you ask me. Kinda like when they make slutty geisha costumes as if they're trying to imply that sluts are all geishas are.

XP I could just keep ranting but I'm gonna stop now... Sorry if I offended anyone. ^^"
