Tag x 2

I was tagged for quote tag by Aji LaStrange at Cafe LaStrange and for Halloween tag by Meagan Kyla at Coffin Kitsch.

Quotes:
"Integrity is doing the right thing even when no one is watching."
I don't know where that one originated, but it strikes a chord with me. Most people make very different choices and do very different things when others are watching... and I find that disappointing. Is fear of embarrassment or punishment really the only impetus for people to do the right thing? It makes me despair for humanity.

Okay, enough of that. On to the fun stuff!

"We are here because we're not all there." - from an Aerosmith song
Ha ha, punny.  :)

Halloween:
1. Favorite Halloween song?

5. Skeletons or Zombies?
6. Favorite Halloween candy?
7. Favorite Halloween movie?
8. Favorite Halloween costume?
9. Favorite Halloween store?
10. Jack-o-lanterns, yes or no?
11. Bats or Black Cats?
12. Is Halloween your favorite holiday?
13. Pumpkin spice latte or hot chocolate?

1. Favorite Halloween song?
"Every Day is Halloween" by Ministry.

2. Witch or Vampire?
Witch. I could conjure up a spell or two to fix my home improvement projects that go awry. :) I like my personal space boundaries too much to be a vampire - I wouldn't want to get close enough to people to drink their blood.

3. Favorite thing about Halloween?
The availability of bat items - bat fabrics, bat towels, bat stickers, bat jewelry, etc. - that I can buy for use year-round.

4. Halloween party or scary movie marathon?
Halloween party. I do not like scary movies.

5. Skeletons or Zombies?
Skeletons. Zombies are filthy, stinky vessels of infectious disease. Ick.

6. Favorite Halloween candy?
I prefer to get my Halloween sugar fix from Franken Berry cereal. Mmmm...

7. Favorite Halloween movie?
The Scary Godmother movies ("Halloween Spooktacular" and "The Revenge of Jimmy").

8. Favorite Halloween costume?
The best costume I ever saw in person was a handmade Optimus Prime costume that actually transformed.

9. Favorite Halloween store?
It varies by year, but Jo-Ann, Michael's, and Home Goods usually have the best Halloween merchandise.

10. Jack-o-lanterns, yes or no?
Yes. I love pumpkins, gourds and jack o'lanterns.

11. Bats or Black Cats?
Bats. I'm all about the bats.

12. Is Halloween your favorite holiday?
Yes. I don't celebrate most holidays... and I practically mourn Christmas for the commercialized assault it has become.

13. Pumpkin spice latte or hot chocolate?
I don't like coffee, so hot chocolate it is. Spiced apple cider is a yummy Autumn drink, too. :)

I'm not going to tag anyone because I'm super late replying. But feel free to self-tag and share your answers!

    1. It's not Halloween without candy corn, huh? I'm not a fan of the taste, but I love the look of candy corn. I harbor secret desires to have candy corn tricolor hair. :)

  4. I didn't know they still made Frankenberry - we've never gotten it up here - ever! Occasionally I'll see Count Chocula, but it's rare. Yes... Zombies are icky vessels of infectious disease. Good call on that one, Bane. :)

    1. No Franken Berry?! What kind of country are you living in?! ;) (One with higher standards as to which kinds of chemicals are considered food, perhaps.)

      There are actually five monster cereals. Franken Berry, Count Chocula and Boo Berry are sold every year. I saw Yummy Mummy and Fruit Brute a couple of years ago and thought they were new... but they were actually old, discontinued cereals that were resurrected for the one year.
