If it makes you feel any better, I've never even heard it.

You must be incredibly unamerican.
Or incredibly sheltered.

@Carantathraiel

I wouldn't say unamerican or sheltered.

Just have the tendency to live under this darling rock of mine. xD

[Alisma]

*peeks out* I'm Canadian. Does that make me unamerican?

@HaleyTheRandom

So at least you're sheltered. By choice, I suppose ^ ^
You're like me. Only worse XD

Historically referred to as the "Great Northern American" or Homo sapiens canadiansis.

@The Harbinger of Ferocity I found the deviant art page of the lady who does your feline artwork <3 I've been showing it off to a group of friends who role play as khajiit.

One of several I imagine @Carantathraiel, but if I were to wager who it is, she's one I am most fond of for her realism. I enjoy commissioning my various characters through a select few for the quality. However, I am most honored you're displaying these pieces to others - I take great pride in them.

[Carantathraiel]

Of course. Art needs to be shared. <3
How is everyone?
Excited for halloween?

[HaleyTheRandom]

@Carantathraiel Halloween is hands down my favorite Holiday <3

What about you Cara? Excited to get all spooky?

[Carantathraiel]

first halloween in the states -ever- where i expect trick or treaters.
I have no idea what to expect!

[HaleyTheRandom]

Oh wow, really?!

Well, costumes, of course.

Just buy the good candy. Wouldn't want your house to get egged :P

[Alisma]

Yup. Also, cans of coke are pretty good, but they can get pretty expensive.

[BrokenPromise]

I'm not sure how to feel about a holiday where groups of children approach your house and demand candy. I'm actually kinda glad I live out in the country where I don't get many visitors. That's not to say I don't enjoy Halloween. Though my favorite holiday is after Halloween: 50% off candy. This same holiday appears after Christmas and valentines day as well!

I'll admit I'm a little biased. My parents never let me trick or treat. My mother was soooooooo terrified of the "razors in the candy apples" etc. I did dress up for school (once), but it wasn't anything cool or fun. I can understand why she wouldn't want to make me a costume of my favorite obscure video game characters, but did I have to be a rabbit? At least make me a vampire! I did get to dress up as death once, but that was a very special occasion. Instead of enjoying my weekend off, my mother had volunteered the entire family to participate in one of her friends things. Like we were props in a hunted house. It was actually kinda fun, though it would have been more so if it didn't create so much drama between everyone.

[TheMadAsshatter]

I'm glad I live in a dorm. I don't want to waste my money on candy that I'm not going to be the principal consumer of. Not that I particularly like candy anyways.

[Alisma]

I'm more of a chocolate person. But then again, there are many countries around the world that call chocolate, candy. So in their minds, chocolate = candy...

[Carantathraiel]

i lived in an out of reach area growing up so i never saw trick or treaters, and we always went to my uncle's to do it. then i moved to europe and there were still no trick or treaters in my neighbourhood.
japan was the first place i had them. Gods, halloween is huge, there!

[HaleyTheRandom]

Oh wow, Cara, you've been all over the place! I myself live in a pretty 'country' far out place, so no trick or treaters here either. We usually go to my cousins for a huge family thing.

I've always found Dias De Los Muertos interesting.

[Alisma]

Yeah, especially the candy skulls. I love the way they decorate everything.

[Carantathraiel]

military life.
we're out of it now, and settled. Is why we get trick or treaters now. real american house!
