If I was a kid and went to that school, I'd go and egg that lady's house. lol
Halloween parties in school were fun as fuck! We got pizza, candy and soda!
She makes me think of this lady.

exactly - I changed the title just now (before I even saw your post).
also, 0-word post with just a link? what the fuck is this, reddit?
@WiiMiiSwitch be careful with the clickbaity titles - it's quite obvious you're trying to stir up trouble.
Your behavior in this forum will be watched closely.
I actually only watched the Brad and Lex cover so I didn't know it's was a parade
America has this "holiday" thanks to the Scots that migrated here. I'm very much a product of that history, and it's my favorite holiday, commercialised or otherwise. So, no, I'll celebrate regardless of what the school districts decide to do.This problem of Halloween would be easily solved by Americans simply not celebrating a festival that has nothing to do with them and let us Scots celebrate Samhain the way it should be without all the commercialised bullshit that American has attached to it.

I guess Parents are afraid people are hiding Racism in their kids candy now? Because this is the only way this would make any goddamn sense.

I seriously hope you aren't suggesting that racism is "solved" in a country where people can still be seen flying confederate and swastika flags even in the northernmost states, because that would be patently ridiculous. Unfortunately I'm also not sure how else that statement could be interpreted.
To be fair, the parade was supposed to take place in Seattle - it might be for the better. The odds of stepping on human feces or heroin needles is very real, better safe than sorry.

Obviously you know the answer to that if you're already moving the goalposts to whatever the hell "fully racist" is supposed to mean lol. I've been all over the US, and some of the most openly racist parts of it (aside from the rural South) are Eastern (rural) Oregon and pretty much anywhere in the New England region. And yes, I've met racists where I live (Colorado) as well.
In general, racists try to avoid revealing their racism to anybody who isn't on the same page, but you might (or might not) be surprised how many immediately assume I'm on their side just because I'm white.
I feel like this is nothing more than another cog in the assembly line of the outrage factory.

Are these people in charge of cancelling really thin-skinned troglodytic pantywaists or something?
Then again, it's Seattle, no surprises there.
Bullshit.

I guess I would be surprised but I would have to see it to believe it. I don't want to stay the state I live in for privacy based reasons but I can tell you, there's almost no racists. Yeah I've met racists and people have been racist to me but it's quickly dying out
Kids make seem like racism is a crime so kids should grow up without any racism
Also "fully racist" means actually racist. For example, actually discriminates without being satirical. It just feels like people make the world seem so racist when it really isn't that racist
But some people still are racist.
I mean I found a website called White Pride Radio
But I just feel we keep running over and over again (Yes a Nathan Sykes reference, which is also my pfp) in a loop.
I feel if we abandon the entire race concept and open up as people instead I feel racism will be dead

I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.+1 -

I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet

Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.

Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol

Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150
