Poll: What are you handing out for Halloween this year? - Reply
Hi everyone, as a firm christian in my beliefs, I believe Halloween is not a NZ thing. We have some how copied a American tradition and somehow as been cooperated in our country. I know some people may get offended about this subject but something has to be said about it. I am not going to apologies because of my comments.
Look, some will think it is OK to free lollies once a year from peoples homes, but you did some research on Halloween itself on the internet, you will find it represents a more evil thing. This is why we see people dressing up in costumes like vampires, etc. What is this telling us about Halloween? That it's OK to celebrate evil and free lollies? NO! It is not.
We as a country should stamp out Halloween and call it Angel Day or something more appropriate. Or just get rid of the whole Halloween Day. This is just I am coming from. Halloween is evil and should not be celebrated. Leave this tradition to America and left stayed in America thank you, no offense to anyone who has come from the states.
Lets have this Day be called NZ Day where we called everything in our country NZ or Kiwiana.
Matt

Poll: Is it rude to take a full trolley to self-checkout?
Luckily self-checkout is being pretty common in supermarkets these days and we generally use it to quickly buy a few things without the long lines. But perhaps it's appropriate to head there with your full trolley to skip the lines?
What are your thoughts? Is that rude?

Poll: Have you ever had a scary flight?
A plane flying from Christchurch to Wellington on Sunday had smoke billowing out of the engine and upon landing, passengers had to open the emergency exit and jump out. Have you had any scary flying experiences?
