I'm curious. What has arriving in Gloucester managed to ruin for you. For me, it's the beach and maybe carnivals.

They made for interesting spell ingredients at least.

That was actually my first halloween party. So. Great first impression.

Halloween is supposed to be fun. You decorate. You dress up. You party. And the next day after you stock up on price-reduced candy.

cw for mean girls misogyny

Really? I was told it was the one night a year a girl can dress like a slut and no other girl is allowed to comment on it.

I saw the decorations and celebrations around town growing up, but we never celebrated it. My parents looked down on any human traditions or holidays. It's probably something I might have liked when I was younger.

[bossyboiler]

Wow. Slut, really? That is ludicrous. Who told you that?

[ She can't even address the second part of Aelwyn's comment. She's too incensed by the 'dressing like a slut' bit. ]

[aelwyn_aberration]

It's from Mean Girls.

But also I had a friend that had a similarly complicated relationship with femininity and misogyny. Humans are very strange about gender.

[bossyboiler]

Is that a movie or a book?

Some do, yes.

[aelwyn_aberration]

Movie. Have you... never seen Mean Girls? What time did you come from?
