LMAO! Thank you! I was just sitting around waiting!
We missed you, JJ!
HALLOWEEN CONTEST IS OVER
if ur bumping here, it's a wasted bump. a bump lost to the infinite expanse of nothingness that we call the aether of the universe. left alone to drift along the chasms of null space, forever alone in a deep black pit of emptiness.
also, i like cheese.
We are all winners here in the HALO NATION!
And we survived Halloween!
In all the mayhem of the Halloween game, I failed to congratulate jefsview on his Six month vapaversary!!!!
Congrats to you jefs...it is amazing how easy it is when you find the right equipment coupled with the best eliquid!
Today is All Saints Day, or the second day of Hallowed Mass (the third, lesser known holiday name is Tito Jackson..erm..i mean All Souls Day on Nov. 2nd).
In Mexico, it is the first day of Dias de Los Meurtos, loosely translated means free Baloney and Cheese to all, specifically it is the Dia de Los Inocentes that specifically offers infants and children that passed before their time.
It all began on a cold night many years ago, when cavemen rode dinosaurs into battles with ancient Egyptians and their alien spaceships. Pope Boniface IV (who was actually the second Boniface, but math wasnt invented yet so they just picked random numbers) was consecrated and a feast held to honor the saintly spirits that had passed on before.
Coincidentally, The Celts, having just discovered whiskey and deciding to become the Irish, we're celebrating their own holiday of Samhain during the festival of Lemuria. But for them, it was merely a fall harvest as they didnt care about dead people.
Eventually, everyone got together and said "this is way to confusing, how about you celebrate it our way or we'll storm your cities and make you!" and thus so it did pass that through peaceful violence and the losers agreeing to die as they resisted they all decided to just call it All Saints Day or All Hallows Day and do it the way The Christians wanted to do it, mostly because they had bigger swords and machine guns and the Celts had rocks and red-headed women.
Of course once candy was invented, people stopped caring and only celebrated the first day of the festival: All Hallows Eve or Halloween. I think the traditional gift on All Saints Day is something terrible, like mayonnaise and the costume is a full bodied potato sack. So it really didnt stand a chance against a candy and scantily clad sexy nurse filled day like Halloween.
The moral of the story? If you feed broccoli to your dog, the room aint gunna smell good.
Here endeth the lesson
