I totally read this in King Candy’s voice, from Wreck it Ralph. And thanks! It looks delicious. The pumpkin candy corns are the best.

Agreed on everything

[whattheHoid she/her]

Anybody seen the new Wreck it Ralph? I want to. I just end up reading more than watching movies.

[Gancho Libre he/him]

Agreed on both counts. The first was great and funny.

I don't think it's out of theaters yet, if it is out in theaters. If I can manage to get away from Nalthis and from the adventures of Geralt and Dandilion! Srsly, one of the best duos ever! Great Bros/wingmans!

Watching the greatest Halloween movie ever made (in my opinion) Hocus Pocus. I'm not into horror movies and stories (except for Wierd authors like Clark Ashton Smith, HP Lovecraft etc) so I just find the movie a lot of fun!

[whattheHoid she/her]

Ok, Yas yes! Hocus pocus the best movie!! So, I was trick or treating with my daughter tonight and the one house we were at.....the people handing out the candy were all dressed up as ........you guessed it, the Sanderson sisters! But like in the beginning of the movie, when they looked old and stuff. And they were in character!!!!!! It was amazing! You, sule, have great taste!!

So. People at BYU go ALL OUT for Halloween.

You all can join me in March and dress up then as well if the wait till Halloween is too long. No trick-or-treating, but yes costumes and candy.

So I have a serious question that I was hoping for some feedback about. I just found my old monk costume. I am not catholic, but would it be considered insensitive or making fun of Catholics if I went around in costume next year flicking water around, making the cross, and saying "In nomine Patris et fillii et Spiritus Sancti"? I just think it would be fun, but I don't want make anyone feel bad.

[Silva]

Depends on the environment. I'm not even Christian, so don't take my word on any of this, but some people may take it the wrong way. It honestly is a hilarious idea, though some may not feel that way. If you're somewhere with no Catholics, it probably would be fine. Anything can be called insensitive - that doesn't mean it's actually offensive in any way.

[whattheHoid she/her]

@Ammanas So, I grew up Catholic, am not now. I would find that hilarious!!! I don't speak for everybody, but I would say go for it!! 

[+Ark1002]

That sounds funny, and would be amazing to see. I bet there would be one or two people who would take it the wrong way, but I really think it is a great idea!

Some people definitly could/ will take that the wrong way. I'm not catholic myself (but christian), but almost everybody around (including my husband and he's very religious) and I think it would be half half. It depends on who you meet. My friends would all be relaxed and take it as some well owned criticsm, but if I take a look at my grandparents/ parents-in-law they would most likely be offended.

I think a safer idea would be to use the costume to be one of those head-banging monks from Monty Python and the Holy Grail. You'll probably get more laughs, and people being offended over it would be much less likely.
