Holidays
 

whats ya favorite holiday and why?

St Georges Day should be a national holiday

Halloween. Why, you ask? Because, you can dress up all silly-like, you get candy. And it's just happy fun and jazzy. That is why I like Halloween.

In Mexico, you get skulls made entirely out of sugar.



100%!!!!! SUGAR!!!!

another byassed poll/thread.....*sigh* nobody knows or cares about halloween or thanks giving....

halloween and christmas. both have more of an atmosphere and sense of occasion then the others. and we in the UK do not celebrate thanksgiving or independance day anyway...add the "jubilee" for cultural equality...oh wait...british people dont give a sh!t about the queen...

uh, there both on there adidasss

I quite like Halloween , it`s the only day of the year when I can tell kids to f*ck off from the comfort of my doorstep

God now im gonna think your one of those old creepy guys who is always yelling.

'GET OFF MY LAWN KIDS'


edit: halloween for the reasons angie listen...and the egging is fun!

whilst caressing a musket

my point is/was that it's not celebrated in the rest of the world and america is not the centre of the world ( despite the popular opinion )

Its not?!?! :eek: WTF ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT

America , The centre of the universe for people who think they are centre of the universe.

Best quote ever

Halloweeeeeeen, most definately. One of the few times I can dress up and not look like a total 'tard. I was a pirate last year :) I even had the whole rummy thing goin on, was fun...

I'm sorry Adidass.. How about you try to celebrate Halloween this year. It's an amazing holiday. It's on the 31st of October. So it's not far away.

Just dress up silly, like a.. pirate! and then you'll celebrate Halloween for once. You should really try it. :)

actually, we have a time of year in which we dress up funny and kids go arround houses for candy, but it's not one day, it's several weeks, it's during the winter and it ends in a big carneval.....we just don't have a holiday that's called halloween....

Well, at least you have something similar. I would have cried for you if you didn't have a Halloween. And I apologize that this poll is biased.. though, I didn't make it. Still..

that's allright, but i have to be honest, i do get a little annoyed when the american members of this forum ( and the brittish too ) just start talking about stuff that is only familiar to them with the asumption that everyone knows about it.....i stress the fact that this is an international forum....but i guess such things are inevitable when the majority of the members are from 2 countries....

understandable :shycouch:

Yes, I can see where that can get annoying. But considering I have NEVER lived anywhere else, I don't know what holidays are in Croatia..

that's allright...i just had to vent....:)

Well if you just asked im sure someone would explain it to you.

I choose Thanksgiving, the American holiday of genocide and blind rape of a native people who we're generally pleasent and had more advanced political sysytems, social philosophy and better calendars. We also gave them small pox infested blankets.

We celebrate it by eating turkey which for those of you who live in part of the world without turkeys is a large form of foul akin to the chicken. It gobbles rather hysterically and has tremendous eyesight. It was almost the American symbol, but someone said "i don't know if the Turkey is the best choice" and so we have the eagle.

I like this holiday most of all because I enjoy turkey and mashed potatoes and that it occationally falls on my birthday.

seems you have alot of venting to do...

I personaly like christmas, best holiday ever. The mood starts on dec 1rst and goes till like january...i like when people are happy :D
Next is thanksgiving! Yaaay I find it so homey and autumnish haha so cool

Maybe because not everyone is American and don't have the exact same holidays?

I however, like the days directly after my official exams...mmm...sweet, precious brain release time...

I'm so booking a massage straight after my last exam! :-p

no sh!t sherlock....the maker of this thread however seems to be under the impression that they are....

in case you didn't know, Halloween was originally Spanish, so Thanksgiving is the only one that isnt International.

That's because I was directing it at the maker...:-p

Good point, but I'm not Spanish either. ;)

no, thanksgiving is international. we do celebrate thanksgiving in canada, in case you didnt know.

I like Christmas. Fun in the sun, 6 weeks of freedom before the next year of education starts.

And then theres the presents...merry merry christmas.
