Why Halloween Sucks (for single grown ups with no drip)

Whenever Halloween rolls around I am reminded of the many years I’ve spent in trashy costumes and house parties asking strangers “what are you supposed to be?” Only to be met with an incredibly obscure or equally obvious answer (I should’ve known the guy double fisting Marlboros and a Natty Light was Bojack Horseman).

You’ve just sat down on your family’s living room couch that probably could go for a deep clean and is harboring several hundreds worth in spare change in between the cushions. You’re double-fisting your Halloween candy bag in one hand and a lukewarm apple cider in the other. On the television screen in front of you, a movie is about to play.
