Got Your Giant Skeleton?

How a 12-foot skeleton became the hottest Halloween decoration around | CNN

This, we are told, was the hottest thing, this Halloween–a 12-foot-high scary skeleton.

One of these costs up to $700, but you can get one for just under $500. Of course, if I ever spent that kind of money on Halloween decorations, I could never respect myself again.

Still, the first one we saw yesterday was an eye-popper. Then it turned out there were half a dozen more on the same street, and more around the corner. So much for novelty. How embarassing!–to spend 700 smackers on one of these things and wind up surrounded by the $499 models that look just like it.

Well, fun’s fun and it’s your money, dude. You could’ve donated it to Democrats. That’d be worse. Three cheers for giant skeletons.

A Little Time Off

We’ve had a rough morning, what with computer problems and grocery shopping; so I’m going to take Patty out for a ride around town, to see this year’s Halloween decorations. It might be better at night, but we’ll be too sleepy to appreciate it.

Last year’s Halloween displays were mostly rained out. We’ve had some sunny days, though, so it shouldn’t be a total loss.

I’ll try to put up a few more posts when we get back… if we get back in time.

PA School District Bans Halloween Parades

Slideshow: 2019 Friday Harbor Elementary School Halloween Parade

Our public “educators” have pretty much run out of Christian religious holidays they can ban, so now they’re coming after just-for-fun secular holidays. And it looks like Halloween is at the top of their “things to ban” list.

So the Lower Merion School District, in Pennsylvania, has banned the annual Halloween parades at its six elementary schools (https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2022/10/13/parents-outraged-after-pa-district-cancels-traditional-halloween-parade-over-inclusivity-safety-concerns/). They cited concerns for “safety”–you can get very badly injured walking around the school!–and “inclusivity” (“Sorry! We can’t let you enjoy this unless 100% of everybody here enjoys it just as much!”).

[Sheesh. We live next door to an elementary school. We love their Halloween parade.]

This is pure crapola.

Crikey, it’s a parade around the school! How many kids have gotten rubbed out doing that?

And “inclusivity” is just Far Left dope-speak. A catch-all.

Lower Merion parents are afraid their school officials are going to catch ban fever and start canceling all the holidays they can think of.

Yo, parents! You saw fit to put your children into the hands of these jidrools! And now you’re paying for it. Pull your kids out of those public schools!

Believe me–their banning holidays is the least thing that you have to fear from them.

Or are you just waiting for your 8-year-old to call you a racist?

‘Liberals on Halloween: No Fun Allowed’ (2018)

Liberals cringe at the thought of regular people having fun. Halloween’s not here yet, but it will be very soon. Be prepared to hear Wokies demand you not enjoy it.

Liberals on Halloween: No Fun Allowed

Yes, there’s a fringe group out there for whom Halloween is this great satanic festival. But we’re talking about pumpkins, Trick or Treat, parties, and seeing who has the coolest costume. It’s not something that has the world’s fate riding on its shoulders.

When liberals demand you get rid of your costume because it’s Cultural Appropriation, try to pretend they’re only a stupid horror movie that’ll be over soon.
