"We will be GLAD to return when Christians & Those who fear God and HATE evil! Thank ------ You,"
... yeah, that seems about right.
I mean. The actuall complaint is to early and Ill agree with that part. I don't like holidays starting up more than a month before. october for holloween, november for thanksgiving, december for christmass, march for saint pats, febuary for valentines and whenever for easter if it can get its act together. Ill give that an exception as mardi gras is its own thing. Oh but if its fireworks can we keep those to just the day of and maybe before and after but we don't need a week of it. blah blah. man yells at cloud.
You can bet they don't mind Christmas decoration is up 4 months before Christmas though.
and xmass is the worst culprit. It really annoys me as I like the simple fall type stuff before thankgiving. I totally hate anything xmass wise before the day after thanksgiving. instead it tries to tread on holloween which is nuts.
Halloween is an exception cause its the coolest one.
for me the more I like it the less I want it going early as it spoils the actual day. im sick of it by the time I should be most hyped.
I have a problem when stores decorate for holidays so early, but I think in this case they were just selling their Halloween stuff. Lots of people like to get their decorations lined up early, and craft stuff can take time, so I have no issue with them selling stuff whenever.
Easter is always on the Sunday after the first full moon of spring. Blame the moon for being not in tune with the year.
febuary for valentines
That one isn’t at the end of the month tho?
yeah but they need the two weeks to clearance all the unsold candy and crap.
They need to just keep all the shit up all year round because that's where we're heading anyway.
I'm impressed the people of Tulsa put aside their differences to issue this joint statement
Lived near there once. It was truly amazing to see how unified the entire populus was. Nobody ever got into fights over anything, and there certainly weren't any stabbings at a bar in town while I was there.
Pussy-ass bitch didn't include a return address
I just love the idea that their almighty god can be defeated with cheap chinese plastic decorations at the dollar store.
It's amazing how many things hurt the omnipotent being they worship. The words "happy holidays," red cups, plastic Halloween decorations in July...
I thought the top warlock of NYC was Magnus Bane?
This is an important point which ought to be sorted out ASAP.
I don't keep up with warlock seniority in New York and I don't know who Magnus Bane is, but I read in another comment that John Ramirez is now a former warlock who says he died, went to hell, repented, and was sent back to life to preach against Satan. I'm not ready to take the guy's word about all that, but it's clear he no longer is taking up the top warlock spot, assuming he ever did, so there's currently no conflict with Mr. Bane holding that title.
I didnt vote for him!
He wasn't even on the ballot when we held the meeting.
I mean, I cant say I disagree with the irrational rage of holiday creep. seeing Christmas shit out in october, and halloween shit out in July/August is infuriating.
Far better ways to to approach it than this ridiculous satanic panic and other myriad religious bullshit, though.
Stores have seasonal sections. When 4th of July has passed, halloween is the next big retail holiday, followed by Christmas. When you consider that empty seasonal sections are the alternative, halloween in July makes a lot more sense.
What I'll never forgive is Christmas music before Thanksgiving.
I didn't ask for your forgiveness. In fact, I may ring up Mariah this morning, just for this comment...
But they can do seasons instead of just holidays
What else are stores supposed to do with their seasonal areas other than stock for the next decoration-based holiday?
Well, people are obviously buying this shit in summer, so don't complain about the stores. It's a worldwide phenomenon, too.
"the majority"...you keep using that word....
People like this usually aren't smart or sane enough to understand perspective. They think everyone thinks the way they do and can't fathom otherwise.
two out of the three of their personalities does technically count as a majority.
I guess they aren't aware that Big Lots starts putting up Christmas stuff at the beginning of October.
When a minority of people think they are the majority. Fewer trash like them every year.
Have the courage to stand by your convictions and print a return address.
There's not enough room for the addresses of all the citizens of Tulsa
Fucking hell, evangelical freaks fear God too?? Is their entire day just fear 24/7? Afraid of gays, afraid of trans, afraid of communism?! afraid of socialism, afraid of Muslims...
What an awful existence...
Yes. Fear is the basis of Christian fundamentalism, and it has become a super convenient way for the Republican party to keep them in line.
When fear is the baseline for your worldview, you see boogeymen around every corner.
I just don't understand how these people are so upset at every single little thing and it's not just upset about it, they think that every thing they don't like is a personal affront to them. Like it's gotta be exhausting to constantly be that upset.
Yes. They also believe that you’re supposed to teach your children to fear you. I’m convinced they believe that fear is the heart of love. They won’t admit that they think fear is a virtue but they do. Because they don’t understand that fear is a tool. You should have fears, they help you make wise decisions, but they need to be based in reality and regularly reexamined. They have little security and comfort and what they do have is couched in fear or conflict.
Like, it’s such a thing in their lives that if I could have my evil leftist re-education camps, they’d just be teaching cognitive and dialectical behavioral therapies.
Fuck these people. Last year they were playing Christmas carols BEFORE halloween. It’s nauseating.
"Hello, police? I'm just calling to ask, how evil is Halloween?"
Hi, I understand you used to be the head warlock?
I agree with the holiday items coming out wayyyy to early and was on board with this person at first… then I realized they’re a delusional fundie and it makes me want to buy extra Halloween stuff just out of spite.
I'm going to write a LETTER with different COLORED words because I don't REALLY understand emphasis.
3b. Christians & Those who fear God and HATE evil!
Should we... should we tell them that it's originally a Christian holiday?
They fear God and seem to think he's evil so I'm not sure they're actually Christian. 🤔
3b give me a verb!
Know what else is in October? HALLOWEEN and all the wickedness!
What am I supposed to do now, buy couches at normal prices???
The news I'm reading says they are only closing some stores.
Halloween is my favorite holiday. All the WICKEDNESS !
My only problem with Halloween is that it's only one day and then everyone stops with the skeletons and the spiders and stuff and their houses get boring again until Christmas.
Unless you have the giant skeleton from Home Depot and dress it for each following holiday.

Halloween and then Thanksgiving my friend.
I half agree with Halloween stuff not being up in October, not that I care about Halloween as a holiday, but at least wait until September.
Halloween is now a huge cash cow, it’s quietly become the holiday that people spend the most on decorations. So I don’t really blame them.
Because of the war on Christmas!!!!!
While I agree holiday stuff comes out way too early ….HALLOWEEN OREOS ARE HERE!!!
I agree that Christmas stuff comes out way too early, but Halloween decorations fill me with joy. There's not a bad time of the year for spooky in my opinion. People people watch horror movies in the spring. Christmas decorations are specifically tied down to Christmas. Halloween decorations are Halloween or just you think a big skull next to your front door looks cool.
Sadly, unlike the 365-day-a-year Christmas stores I see on occasion, the 365-day-a-year Halloween store is not something I have encountered yet.
- c. If you are not sure how evil this "holiday" is:
i. Talk to John Ramirez: ex - Top warlock of NYC
If he's a honest to god tchutchulhu warlock that does real magic, I will talk to him and ask to be an apprentice :D
ii. Talk to the Police. All the WICKEDNESS!
I don't think The Police will reply back, they're probably busy with a tour.
iii. Increase: murder, child abuse, worship of satan!
Uh, I guess I can do those, but you really should've asked with a "pretty please".
From John Ramirez' website:
John Ramirez is one of those miracles with a transformed life through the finished work of the cross. He recounts his former life of being trained as a high-ranking devil worshipper warlock for 25 years of his life. He lived in the dark side in the highest realms of the demonic, specifically Santeria, Spiritualism and Palo Mayombe. In 1999, John passed away in his apartment in the Bronx, went to hell and met the devil and the cross of Jesus Christ. He was put back in his body the same night and became a born-again believer. He overcame the Kingdom of Darkness and has spent the latter part of his life being a fierce warrior for Jesus, uncompromised, preaching the gospel to the nations and setting the captives free.
Yup. Sounds like a reliable, unbiased source.
In 1999, John passed away in his apartment in the Bronx, went to hell and met the devil and the cross of Jesus Christ.
Is... is the cross a sentient being that can speak? I'm a little behind with my Christian Mythology, but why would the cross be in hell along with the devil? Wouldn't that imply that Jesus went to hell along with it? Am I missing the metaphor?
Things like this make me wonder how many mental illness issues are swept under the rug because they tend to take the form of some mainstream religious belief and not correctly identified as a psychotic episode because it's not polite to challenge somebody's faith even if what they believe is patently ridiculous.
Anybody want the explain to him that if you’re serious about spiritualism you either don’t call it that or call it American spiritualism. If someone tells me they’re a spiritualist I assume they mean they’re generally agnostic but incorporate a few aspects of spirituality in their world view, not that they’re out there performing seances
I don’t think The Police will reply back, they’re probably busy with a tour.
They could reply with a message in a bottle...
Was this written by Obvious Plant
No, but they have the brains of a vegetable.
I can imagine the person who wrote this talking like Beth Grant's character in Donnie Darko.
Lol I used to live in Owasso! And halloween was my favorite holiday. My grandma was an over-decorator and would go over the top with decorations for every holiday. I know for a fact she bought Halloween decorations at this very store because I helped her pick them out. So that lady can get bent. She definitely doesn't speak for everyone in Tulsa.
I like how people like this think that a business will somehow be upset that they and their crazy friends/family won't be coming to their store. Threatening them with a good time!
It is distressing to see such a horrendous disregard for the English language. It's bad enough without battering it this much.
Welcome to the InsanePeopleFacebook community. Our Facebook crazies have absolutely no understanding of basic English. Many of them are native English speakers nonetheless.
This screams dear frozen yogurt, you are the celery of desserts, be ice-cream or be nothing. Zero stars
Except, when you believe in something you sign your name to it.
This is like a real life Wagner post
Halloween or Hallowe'en[7][8] (less commonly known as Allhalloween,[9] All Hallows' Eve,[10] or All Saints' Eve)[11] is a celebration observed in many countries on 31 October, the eve of the Western Christian feast of All Hallows' Day
lol.
The wikipedia entry also has some cool historical pictures showing trick or treaters over a hundred years ago.
if not sure, try:
speaking to the head satanist talking to the cops who are SO EVIL (i mean, yes, but I don't see how that correlates to a time of year) increase murder (maybe good dependign on who) child abuse (please don't, what the fuck is wrong with these disgusting freaks that they can't even suggest having a good time without hurting someone who doesn't deserve it, as if the injustice and suffering are the fucking point of everything they do?), worship satan (you do you, but it could be fun, im willing to try)!
I don't know if that's how they meant it to be read, but it's how I read it.
I think with the "Talk to Police" line, they're saying that if you talk to the Police they will tell you about all the wickedness they encounter around Halloween. It's full-on nuts tho lol
yes but that's not how they wrote it, because christians wouldn't be christians if they were properly literate.
Send them another letter, just saying "Shut the fuck up".
Honestly the only thing they got right is Halloween has been going celebrated way too early granted not as bad as Christmas is but yeah we really need to keep holidays in their months other than that these people can go to hell
I will make it a point now to buy things at big lots. There are several in my area!
what
Real Christians understand.
Aneurysms work in mysterious ways
"God fearing" has always struck me as a ridiculous statement. It's supposed to be a positive, like, that person respected God. No. Jesus preached of a loving God. He was delusional, apocalyptic, and a product of his time and circumstances, but he said his god loved everyone. Throw that tired shit away.
You're thinking New Testament God.
Old Testament God is a big mean motherfucker and he will fuck you up unless you follow his very strict rules. In fact, he won't just fuck you up, he will fuck up your entire tribe collectively because you didn't follow the rules.
-every fascist
Trying to interpret grammar/meaning for what is obviously a real-world schizo post is where u made your first mistake
I feel like those should be reversed? Or something..?
okay but it's cool for me to not hate evil, right?
They think Halloween is evil and that everyone should hate Halloween.
