pumpkinfest 2009

Our small town has a cute little thing downtown on Halloween called Pumpkinfest each year. Can I just say that the Franklin Heritage Foundation is gonna hear from me tomorrow morning.
I didn't complain last year but this year it's gonna be hard for me to zjp it. This festival attracts around 6000 people to main street each year and the businesses and vendors that are down there are reaping the benefits of that crap.
Over half the businesses and vendors that were there this year couldn't be bothered to buy a couple bags of candy to pass out to the kids. I mean what kind of decent bitch can stand there an tell a bazillion kids that are dressed all cute that, 'We don't have any candy.' I told one woman, "I hope you enjoy saying that cause you got a long day of ahead." This was at one of the stores that had a sofa table made out of seashells that was on sale for 3000.00 dollars. What? You sell shit for that much? And you can't afford to shell out some candy one day a year? You
going straight to hell ho.
And while I'm bitching at you, don't place the Pumpkinfest flyer in your business window that specifically states that there will be trick or treating if you're not gonna pass out candy.
Then as if that wasn't fun enough, we took Chandler to 5th avenue which is lined with historical homes that were built in the 1800's. It was awesome other than the 47859 Mexicans that were dressed up like tiny hookers and the woman than told Chandler that he couldn't have a twirling light up ring cause, 'oh, these are only for the little ones.' What! Girl you should be totally glad that my child isn't old enough to roll your historical yard, soap your historical windows, or egg your historical car.
Believe it or not, my little man did have a great time dressed as Clark Kent and he scored a ridiculous amount of candy.

I hate people. It just takes a few jack asses like you've described to ruin everything. Oh it's Halloween...let's suck the kids and parents in here to try and make a buck. Misanthrope! Become a fan!

If I ever start a new blog again I'm going to call it: The Narcissistic Misanthrope. Just thought I'd share.

The boy makes a great looking Clark Kent.

Um, honey, I love you but that just ain't "your look". The hair is breaking my heart.

Friends don't let friends wear their hair stupid.
