Halloween in Shalampax
Last night was Halloween in some parts of the world. As I understand it, on Halloween many people dress up in scary costumes and try to frighten other people.
Readers from outside of Shalampax have asked me if we celebrate Halloween here. The short answer is: No. The long answer is: No, because we consider it to be a superfluous holiday.
What do I mean by “a superfluous holiday?” I can explain that quite easily.
I don’t like to brag, but I’m widely considered to be one of the handsomest dudes in Shalampax. My picture was recently taken and Photoshop was used to smooth out some of my more unattractive features, remove some of the natural green color in my skin and, in general, make me look more handsome than I am in real-life. The following is the result:

Keep in mind, as I said, I’m one of the more handsome men here. I don’t think any of the other guys would be willing to have his picture published. So, what do I mean when I say Halloween is “a superfluous holiday?” Need I say more?
