1. My neighbor has orange lights for halloween

Ugly as sin.

[Sparkle]

2. Some people just can't wait.

[sandnsea]

3. Not Halloween lights???

I know, I know; but some people put up little pumpkin strands. It is nice to light the porch, I have a jack-o-lantern porch light. Sure it's not something like that???

[Dookus]

7. nope

regular multi-color flashing christmas lights.

And this is coastal california - no real winter to worry about.

[sandnsea]

20. Maybe they're anti-Satan lights?

You know, fundies expressing their Christianity against the evil trick-or-treaters??

4. The world has gone mad

It's official.

5. Depending on where you live, might be a good idea due to winter weather

17. Right, its the same for me

I decorate with the roof and house lights in later OCtober (doing it tomorrow). The reason is that I usually have 3-4 feet of snow and its 5-10 degrees by Dec 1, and I don;t like decorating in those conditions. We usually don;t turn them on until after thanksgivign,l but I do put them on for a night or two once I get them up to see how they look and to get things going with the neighbors.

6. Its friggin October...holy shite.

8. That reminds me

When I moved in to my neighborhood, the people down the street had this huge sign that said "Jesus is the reason for the season". I thought it was OK because it was January when I moved there.
Well, 6 years later and that huge sign is still up..lol.

9. The dominionists do this to intimidate us, we will not sway.

They try to put these "Christmas lights" up to impress upon us that they are everywhere we see, and even all over near stores and shopping malls to show their merging of state and corporate power in a dominionist oligarchy.

[jdots]

10. THAT DOES IT !

this calls for the burning bag-o-poopy on thier door stoop --- hit the door bell and run .

[quisp]

11. My neighbors

put a ton 'o Halloween crap in their yard at Labor Day and Christmas goes up November 1.

and all the kids who live there are teenagers.

bizarre.

[ogradda]

12. ha! you think that's bad?

[The Backlash Cometh]

[JVS]

14. It's better than waiting for the weather to get bad

[cheezus]

15. put up there? put up where?

[Xithras]

16. My neighbors never took theirs down last year.

I'm hoping for an entertaining fire when he plugs them in a few weeks from now :evilgrin:

[HysteryDiagnosis]

18. Mine are better.... neener neener....

[bif]

19. Mine have been up all year.

Well, just a strand of white lights around our doorway. I think it looks cool and I'm not taking them down.

[Lady Effingbroke]

21. My neighbors never take their lights down, either.

It does make for a year-round festive look, because my neighbors do turn them on occasionally throughout the year (the lights are a 'neutral' white color, so they fit in with any holiday decor!).
