I'm a chickensh*t. I call myself that
so many times in a day that not knowing its origin was driving me nuts. I found it, right there between
chicken skin and chicken septicemia. Chickensh*t: cowardly,
ineffective, lacking courage.
What'd I tell ya? Chickensh*t. But does
that mean that I don't like to be scared? Does that mean I don't
enjoy the adrenaline rush of a thrill? Heck no, especially when the opportunity for fright comes with handfuls of M&Ms and tiny
gold foil packages of Snickers.
Halloween is here and I will join in
the spirit of this holiday, sh*tting in my pants or not. Naturally, the
question you are having about me at this point is, Alexandra, how do
you get into the ghoulishness of it all if you spend most of your
autumn day jumping 5 feet in the air when a falling leaf
nonintentionally floats across your face? (hey! I didn't see it
coming!)
You can laugh at my spineless
existence, I still love you. And I know you know someone
like me.
For those of delicate constitution, I give you my list of
Movies for ChickenSh*ts (because we are a thing)
Please watch these movies in true chickensh*t fashion - broad daylight - you'll get the satisfying Halloween freak out we all seek, but without the need to call Flight for Life for resuscitation.
Haaaaaaaaave fuuuuunnnn (mwahahahahahaha)

ReplyDeleteI've only been a chickenshit for the last ten years or so and it's very unsettling! In the last week I've had to scramble for the remote during commercials for Annabelle (what evil person made this movie?!), Amityville Horror and some show about ghost trackers. And as soon as I saw Carrie on your list, I immediately freaked myself out by conjuring that pic of Sissy Spacek with all the blood pouring down her face! Where's the remote?!
ReplyDeleteI'm with you. I'm all about the easy listening variety of horror movies. The list you give above might as well be the Andy Williams of the horror genre and that's ok with me. Don't forget Poltergeist...another scary movie with training wheels.
