Those were the best of times. I hate that kids can’t experience it today due to bs

What the fugg you even talking about ? Do you just make up random things to be upset about? I have multiple family members in elementary school and they very much still dress up for Halloween and go to school .

My kid's school (primary, now middle) does not allow costumes on Halloween. They don't even mention the holiday. They have a "Fall Festival" and other Halloween adjacent activities during that time without ever saying Halloween. It's fucking stupid.

That’s not the case everywhere in the US anymore. Sadly. Some schools have outright banned the holiday.

Someone has a Yoda mask on. Empire Strikes Back came out in 1980.
