Happy Halloween! Should We Unmask?

Post by AllieOop »

We have usually done our annual Halloween unmasking here on NOM...just for the day (we also used to do it on April Fools Day, iirc).

Should we or shouldn't we this year?

(I will if you will :) )

Ok...since wtfluff got things started (yay!), I'll try to find a pic to post. I have the one from last year, but it's kind of blurry. I'll post it and then keep looking for a new one!

I only have my iPad and the pictures on it, so for now this is the only real flesh and blood picture I can access. I will look for a warm blooded picture of me and return and report if I find something.

Will that red headed girl with the fluffy hair be posting again this year? That would be a treat.
Good faith does not require evidence, but it also does not turn a blind eye to that evidence. Otherwise, it becomes misplaced faith.

Yeah, bad timing, sorry about that! Forgot about unmasking today.

At work, so this is the picture I have access to.

But, should the COB actually be peeking in, you should know that I am in a white shirt and tie at all times, day and night. What do you think, am I white and delightsome enough to be 70 material in a couple years? I guess I'll need to shave to show how church-broke I really am.
