Anyway, it's Easter! So break out the chocolate, get the dentist ready and let the good times roll.
I say this, but Easter is pretty pointless. Especially for any non-Christian's, as it's managed to turn itself into a materialistic holiday. Although this can be said for a lot of the Christian holidays.
We all know the meaning behind Easter, but eventually this is going die out, as many people are growing up with Atheist parents. Being an Atheist myself, i see no problem in this, and personally i don't really celebrate Easter, it's just another way of dragging me away from my home to see family.
Now here's a fact about Easter you may not know....
- In Medieval times, a festival of egg throwing would be held in a church. During this the priest would throw a hard boiled egg at a choir boy, who would then throw in to another choir boy, and so on. Until the clock struck 12, and the choir boy holding the egg would win the game. The prize being a pair of handcuffs and a night in the priest's bedroom. *cough*
I'm not sure how much of that is true, so I'll assume it's all correct.
Another bad point of Easter is the incredibly annoying puns that people will insist on blurting out with and will be convinced that they are hilarious because of this. I went to buy an Easter Egg from Thorntons, and after purchasing the Egg the man behind the counter told me that i had made an 'EGG-cellent' choice. At this point i took my crowbar out of my bag and proceeded to beat the bastard.
I tend to get confused with things i actually do and what i want to do. Based on that fact, I'd say that story isn't 100% correct. I may have bought a chocolate Bunny instead......*cough*
More pointless complaining coming soon......
