Halloween is my favorite holiday. I love it because it’s blatantly materialistic, there’s no bullshit religion involved (at least not any major, controlling, obnoxious religions…coughChristianitycough…). It’s blatantly materialistic. And you can wear whatever you want with almost no judgement.
And I was especially excited about Halloween this year because I missed it last year because I was abroad.
Unfortunately, this year was a big, fat, ginormous, humongous letdown. A friend and I went out to the Dukum, a local bar. It was okay, and there were a few pretty decent costumes, but nothing exciting going on. We then went to a 70s dance club. Huge mistake. It was full of scary older townies. I have nothing against townies, but all the creepy ones seem to have flocked there last night. We didn’t even stay for the end of the song. We then went to the club next door (fortunately none of these have cover charges). Almost empty, we left.
As a last-ditch resort we went out to a frat party. Even lamer. It was all young’uns who couldn’t legally be at the bars. And those who haven’t reached drinking age are typically very annoying when they do drink. I can’t judge, I was just as bad, but it really makes you realize how annoying you must have been.
After staying there a few minutes, we went home before midnight. Lame.
