[ See a pumpkin. And see a frail, pale hand holding the pumpkin, idly tracing the stem before the camera pans out, showing one bored Joshua. ]

Mmm... I fail to see the charm in this. [ Oh those damn kids and Westerners with their Halloween mumbojumbo. ]

[--?] In the pumpkin?

[componere]

Precisely.

I don't see why people obsess over them.

[resonancy]

Oh, with the crops and the decorations and such? I think it's just a traditional thing.

[componere]

Traditional?

[madcuriosity]

Are you going to turn it into a carriage?

[componere]

And why would I do that?

[madcuriosity]

Because it's a pumpkin of course.

[componere]

Hmmmmm ... of course it is.

But why?

[ifeelsoepic]

... It's a pumpkin and it's decoration. You don't have to see the charm in it.

[componere]

But if it's decoration, there has to be a charm.

[ifeelsoepic]

Does it matter?

[gangstaspeak]

It's jus' a pumpkin, yo. Ain't nothin' there to see.

[componere]

Oh? I would have to disagree.

[gangstaspeak]

The hell? It's a vegetable, yo. What's to agree 'bout?

[componere]

The Western world is awfully obsessed with it for a reason.

[4everythingelse]

I'm pretty sure you're supposed to eat it, not be charmed by it. It's a type of gourd, isn't it? A pumpkin?

[componere]

Eat it?
