Those school dinners thing is one of the worst thing ever. Everyone at my school just goes to the shops round the corner. (Except people who have free dinners)

Who says you can't play with big fires?
The amounts of shit people throw on it when it's alight is outstanding.... Fireworks, cans of beans, cans of paint.... anything that will explode... It's pretty dangerous but people still do it... That's what Bonfire night's all about.

Yeah... I generally just go into town... But then again I'm allowed to. We have teachers paroling the entrances and shit so people who aren't allowed have to stay. I assume people still find a way to bail though... Or they simply get food after school. Whatever really.

Yes but you're the one who said you can't play with big fires... Which is simply not true. You just can't understand until you've witnessed it... It's not like Halloween which is simply Trick or Treating.
Can't really do stuff like poke at a large fire, because it's too large and hot to get too close to (I've done it), and explosions are far more fun when it's a smaller fire.
And how can you say I can't understand until I've witnessed it, yet you're happily judging Halloween? Have you ever been in the US for Halloween?

It's not about playing with fire.... It's about hanging with friends... Around mesmerising large fires, watching fireworks and simply having fun.
I can judge Halloween as it's celebrated in my country. People dress up and go trick or treating, people throw parties, people do all those Halloweenish things that Halloween is all about it. I imagine Halloween in America is pretty much exactly the same as we English pretty much stole it all of you. THe only real difference is that in England we have chavs... Who insist of egging houses of people, sometimes elderly people's houses. That's what I hate it for.
And you'd hate a day simply because of a few dumbass teenagers? Kind of silly. Makes more sense to dislike the dumb****s It's pretty rare that people actually do that here.

Yeah... Because you can really have a 15 foot fire and a £400 firework display everyday. Fireworks are not even on sale most of the year and are illegal unless used on specific days in specific places.
Apart from getting pissed with friends... I can't name anything good about Halloween and I can get pissed with friends anytime.
