I have already written about Halloween... I have nothing against this day, but I can't stand children wandering asking trick or treat...
I spent few lines to explain what importing a tradition from another culture means to me, and I don't want to repeat it again...
This evening I was going shopping and I saw some of this children dressed as witches or monsters. The first thing that came into my mind was :"Why here?! There are no Houses here around!" The second was: "If they dare even think about coming to my door I'll throw them rotten eggs!"
I don't hate children, mind you! And I can perfectly see that it is not their fault, but that's not a celebration of our culture and I cannot see any serious reason to celebrate it...
Thank God tomorrow there will be no more Halloween!

I quote you totally.
Happy to see that there are intelligent Italian people around!
you should have joined me in my "enchanted forest" (front yard) where i took great delight in scaring a few of these crazy kids! (not the little ones though.)
(i ate all the chocolate myself...no sense in wasting it on young, unrefined palates!)
remember: americani sono pazzi!!!
I can't imagine you scaring kids! :D
I can perfectly see why Americans celebrate Halloween, I don't see the point when Italians do so!
