It's a great day to dress up and grab some bit-size Snickers from strangers. Or, if you are on a college campus right now, it's a great day to dress only in your underwear (with a little makeup and a weird hairstyle, you'll call yourself a "Sexy Demon," or something), drink a bathtub full of Natty Light, and dance to Michael Jackson's Thriller all night.
At any rate, Halloween is a day for many to release their inhibitions and anxieties because they get to be someone, or something, else for an evening. We enjoy it because we get to lose ourselves for a little while. And sometimes a little release goes a long way. That's often what people look for in their entertainment, too. A little diversion. Of course, we may want to learn a thing or two. But, sometimes, you just need to not be "in your head." Laughter, tears, whatever. It all helps. And on Halloween, you ARE the entertainment. So live it up, gang!
By the way, if you want to see a cringe-worthy way of how NOT to be entertaining on Halloween, check out this clip from the Today Show. I'm sure this seemed like a great idea. But, many bright ideas can crumble in the execution. Talk about Dead Air! Maybe they should have rehearsed a little, eh?
