At Least "Decemberween" Was SUPPOSED To Sound Stupid

[bloodyrosemccoy]

Trying to decide which is more unintentionally hilarious: a musical stage adaptation of one of Beverly Lewis’s Amish pseudoporn novels (thanks, evilcresyluna!), or the nice Christian group trying to turn Halloween into “Jesus Ween.”

On the one hand, I’m picturing the glitteriest, Glee-est, vaudevilliest showstopping Amish musical, replete with tap dancing and chorus lines and pyrotechnics and music by either Andrew Lloyd Webber or the Gershwins.

On the other hand, JESUS WEEN.

You decide.

A while ago some nationalistic Swedish politician talked about the importance of maintaining ancient Swedish traditions, such as "Christmas, Easter, and Halloween". Um. The only reason the whole Halloween spectacle is gaining ground here is because Swedish kids watch American films and shows and go "Hey, free candy!"

Can't be fun to go trick-or-treating here though; most people don't prepare for any little ghouls that might turn up, so there isn't a whole lot of actual candy to be gained, and Swedish kids are way too polite to egg anyone's house (plus they know they'd probably be in deep shit if they did that).

Halloween is mostly an excuse for yoofs to watch scary films, eat a lot of candy, have dress up parties, and get drunk. I'm rather looking forward to it this year, since I'm in a film school now. We've actually been taught how to do make-up that looks like wounds, burns, boils, and bruises, so I'm expecting the getups at the upcoming Halloween party to be epic! :D

Hey, I wouldn't wanna live anywhere that a good party isn't considered patriotic! ;)
