Question Time: The Halloween edition
No one knows what it means, but it’s provocative
Lola MosanyaThe freaks come out at night, at no time is this more true than during the Halloween period. But underneath all the liquid latex, blood and slutty cheerleader outfits there are some deeply moral people.
It’s amazing how your Average Joe’s and Joanna’s, normally tightly wound and always in a rush on campus, turn into Greenpeace leaders after a few drinks. In spite of their costumes, questions of life and morality got these FND goers thinking.

Profound words from the doctor.
Q: “What is true about yourself today that would make your 8 year old self cry ?”
A: ” A lot of things. At this age everyone is pretending to be something they’re not, but with me what you see is what you get. Good or Bad. So I would tell my 8 year old self not to cry, at least I’m still honest.”
