Out of the holidays, which one do you not like as much? Which one do you look forward to the least? Please be considerate when posting your reasons.
For me, it's a tie between Easter and Halloween. Although if I had to choose, I'd go with Halloween, as I can ignore Easter pretty well since my family no longer celebrates it. Halloween, on the other hand, I can't ignore because, like Christmas, it gets attention and specials and merchandise (while Thanksgiving was sadly skipped over right after to make way for Christmas).
I don't hate Halloween. It just has no meaning left for me. As a kid, I did enjoy dressing up and getting candy. Nowadays, all Halloween is to me is a bunch of kids stuffing their faces with candy. Not exactly a brilliant day for me. I don't even like candy as much as I used to, and I can't stomach as much as I did as a kid, so I can't even enjoy that aspect. I'm also not huge into horror usually, so I usually don't like the Halloween specials, although there are some I don't mind. I don't mind visiting family (though admittingly it's mostly to see Lincoln the dog and Harlow the cat), but I am pretty apathetic towards Halloween in general.
Yeah true, Thanksgiving is more or less just stuffing my face (I mean our family doesn't even say grace like you would imagine a traditional Thanksgiving meal would go), but I would much rather have a big feast than a few pieces of candy.
No offense intended to those who love Halloween. It's just not my thing.
