Sad Halloween
Can I just complain a little about something inconsequential, internet?
So, it used to be that I would break my moratorium on setting foot in Old Navy at Halloween, because it used to be that they had some great stuff. I remember back when I was in Seattle, the big terrible store had its whole front quarter filled with orange and black stuff, up to and including bath fizzy things with bats printed on them, seven or eight differently themed pajama pants styles, different t-shirts with different methods of design and material, and the like. Now they have scaled everything down abominably, such that the Halloween stuff takes up about ten square feet of space, all the t-shirts have rhinestones on them, and the most thought is put into baby costumes made of plushy stuff that are supposed to make your baby look like a giant hot dog. It's just goddamn sad.
Also Target's decorations this year are really phoned-in.
