Last week I noticed a couple of houses in my neighbourhood had Halloween decorations out. One clever one I liked had a full-size skeleton pushing a lawnmower. But isn’t mid-September a bit early? I don’t know what the rules are for these things, or if there are rules, but I would have thought three weeks or a month in advance would be the limit.

I went to ASDA for the weekly shop last night and there was a stand selling Christmas selection boxes! Bonkers! They haven’t started on Halloween yet though so more like leap frogging the gun!

That is really crazy! I thought skeletons in the yard in September was bad.

I know, I am not sure what it was about, no other Christmassy bits were apparent, just the one stand.

It’s because people are stupid idiots and don’t have any self-control.
“Oh, I like halloween? lets celebrate it as long as possible. Oh, I like Fakesgiving, let’s celebrate it forever, starting yesterday. Christmas has a lot of gifts, let’s celebrate it for 6 months out of the year”.
I don’t understand people like that. It is a symptom of totally uncontrolled excess. They want something, they want it NOW and they want it forever. I hope that lawnmower runs the owner over…

Wait until you get older and start having three or four different birthday parties spread out over a couple of weeks. I even got invited to two last month, a week apart, for the same person, which I thought was weird.

Thankfully, I’m anti-social enough that I don’t have to worry about getting invited to b-day parties…

That was no skeleton, that was me doing the garden lawn. What’s the problem?
