Halloween isn't an American thing. It originated back in the 8th century with the Celts, before there were even Yanks in America. They also had nothing to do with the origins of St. Valentine's Day...,.

This has been discussed before and most know that, but it is a big thing in America and then it came here and it feels like an American thing.  Not a fan of it here.  Same for MacDonald's etc.  Same for the clowns, they did not start in America but once the media spreads it about how it is happening in America then some idiots here have to follow on and give it a go.  Hopefully it will not spread.  Mind you I saw a shop the other day selling Clown Jam, yep I bet that will spread I thought.   ;D   Kevin

America can claim that craze as their own seeing as most of them dont seem to realise there is a rest of the world out there. Sheite...it's the only country I know that can have a world series and not invite anyone else.

Did that taste funny to you   ???

Girls say they want a guy who is funny and spontaneous, but when I tap on their bedroom window at night dressed as a clown they all scream.

Yes, they seem to adopt traditions from other places and market them as their own. I was merely correcting a misconception ie
