Are you going trick-or-treating tonight?

It’s Halloween.

OÍCHE SHAMHNA IS almost upon us.

While some love the tradition, others might not care for it and choose to celebrate Halloween with a báirín breac instead.

So today we want to know: Are you going trick-or-treating tonight?

    I remember seeing some goth specimen bouncing down grafton Street with those contacts in. He was staring wide eyed at everyone. Probably thought he was a vampire or some nonsense. The bleedin’ dzope…

    @: Bigotry used to have some sort of warped logic. It was ignorant BS but there was some sort of decipherable train of thought where you could see how the simpletons arrived from A-B in their own warped way. You guys don’t even try anymore! This is lazy beyond belief! Yeah those erm… contact lense wearing Ukrainians! Me so angry at people from other place!
