Happy Halloween.

I grew up with a mom who had neither the time nor “craftiness” to hand-make me a costume for Halloween. Most years, she would just throw a twenty at me around November 1st and mutter “Get started on next year - and none of them sexy costumes ‘til you’re 14 ya’hear?”

Now in my twenties I still look back on those days wishing that just once my mom could’ve taken the time to at least wrap me in tin foil and call me a faucet for Halloween. That was until I saw these poor suckers whose moms loved them so much they beaded and knitted all month to make their son/daughter look like a jackass on October 31st.

The problem with the hand-made Halloween costume is the Guilt Train to Guiltville comes rolling in when the poor kid refuses to go out dressed up like a Care Bear. Listen moms, please ask your child what they want to be before you get out the Bedazzler and the glue gun because even though this kid probably loves his mother very much, he’s quietly logging this moment away for the therapist.

Martha Stewart is a lifetime member of the Women Be Trippin Hall of Fame. In one episode of her show, she displays a bunch of babies dressed like different foods. It’s probably one of the most disturbing things I’ve ever seen, and a clear violation of the Baby-Geneva Convention.

There are a lot of hobbies that are a serious waste of time. To women, things like fishing, football, camping, drinking, masturbating, and rocking out on a new electric guitar all seem like a waste of time.

But to rational men like me, women seem to do a lot more that are pretty stupid. Like needlepoint, crochet, shopping, haircare, cats, and (of course) knitting.

In light of the Halloween Holiday and bad sweaters, I’ve discovered a geniously funny blog called Why Would You Knit That?. Check them out, and you’ll find yourself asking that same question.

I’ve given a few Valentine’s Day gifts before - flowers, a t-shirt, a CD (I never said I was romantic), but I’ll be damned if I’m spending one cent in October for some made-up holiday called “Sweetest Day.”

This past Saturday was Sweetest Day, an “occasion which offers all of us an opportunity to remember not only the sick, aged and orphaned, but also friends, relatives and associates whose helpfulness and kindness we have enjoyed.” Devised in the 1920s by Cleveland candymakers, this holiday is faker than Secretary’s Day - another WBT perpetuation.

As far as Sweetest Day goes, thanks but no thanks.

Just in case you didn’t know, calling a girl a bitch is worse than calling her fat - even if she is a bitch.

My bf is 82, i’m 28 and we’ve been together for seven years. We are great together, we make each other laugh, spend a lot of time together, met each other’s families and friends and basically all the ingredients of a good relationship. The problem is, we have different goals. I want to settle down soon while he told me he’s definitely not going to get married ever again. He’s been very clear about that since we first started dating.

When I was in the fifth grade, there were two Stephanies, two Davids, and five Chris’s in the class. Call me crazy, but those names all make sense to me. David, Chris, and Stephanie have been around for thousands of years!
