MOST PEOPLE ARE CUTTING THEIR JACK-O'-LANTERN'S HOLE IN THE WRONG PLACE

Most people are cutting their jack-o’-lantern’s hole (through which you scoop out the inside) in the wrong place. The stem is crucial to preserve for structural reasons. nyti.ms/4ebWRsH
Want Your Jack-o’-lantern to Last Longer? Stop Cutting a Hole in the Top!
Carved pumpkins are delicate, delicious to wildlife, and likely to rot, but there’s still a lot you can do to make them last long.

Sharing this because I like it & it’s not completely unrelated 🎃
Post card shows small farm boy looking into immense jack-o’-lantern’s mouth; farmhouse and trees in background, smiling moon peeking from behind trees. Text says, “Ho! For a MERRY Hallowe’en”

My Drac-O-Lore... A dragon with a love of sleep and partying hard! By August, the Drac-O-Lantern emerges just in time for the Halloween season! In October, it munches constantly on autumnal treats, after October 31st, it buries itself underground to slumber for next year.

A grey printed resin miniature standing on top of orange dice. The mini is a long-necked, goofy looking dragon with its head coming out of a jack-o-lantern. It has long floppy ears and small teeth with a goofy expression, the lid of the pumpkin covering its eyes. Its wings are made of pumpkin leaves. The same miniature held in a hand, showing the scale and detail, including scales and little swirls on the drac-o-lantern's feet. The miniature from behind, showing vines coming out of the pumpkin with the pumpkin leaf wings. There are spikes going down the drac-o-lantern's back and even little cut-outs in the pumkin they are sticking out of.

In the British Isles, turnips served as jack-o'-lanterns before pumpkins.

There's hints that turnip lanterns have wider roots in Europe - they feature in Finland's Kekri festivities, and may have evolved from Celtic head-taking!

I wanted to draw a little wizard hat alongside the lantern as an homage to Pyro Jack/Jack o' Lantern's design from SMT/Persona, but I decided against it. Maybe I'll try drawing the hat another time. XD

Drew it with pencil on paper. Scanned it with the scanner on my printer. Colored it in Photoshop.
A drawing of the Pokémon Pumpkaboo. The text says, "Pumpkaboo (Average) w/ a Lantern (Poorly Drawn)."

Stingy Jack spent three wishes on a chair, hammer and apple tree that could trap anyone - even the devil, whom Jack made agree never to take him to hell!

Unwelcome in heaven or hell, he roams Ireland with a turnip jack-o'-lantern!

Especially this time of year, where there’s Jack-o-lantern’s glowing everywhere and scarecrows and ghosts made from bedsheets all over to ward off spirits. You step too fr away from the glow of the pumpkins and, well.

Reno’s bright red hair is just begging for him to be noticed and spirited off ✨

Guess who overdid it on MEAT at breakfast and doesn’t have much appetite this afternoon?

If you guessed ALL THE KITTENS you are right. 😂 I preemptively opened two cans just now, and that was definitely unnecessary.

However, someone is already enjoying the Halloween snuggle toy I got them.
A tiny gray kitten is lying on his side hugging an orange cat toy that is three jack-o-lanterns on top of one another. His paw is covering the top jack-o-lantern’s face and he is resting his chin on the pumpkin stem with a sleepy contented expression.

Way to turn a Jack-o-Lantern's frown, upside-down. Or something. 🎃

I think everyone notices this is 100% rotten jack-o-lantern's last march down the gang-plank until his jackals see an opening to rip the ripe flesh.

If you see this, post something you saved because it’s funny
Four panels. A Jack o’Lantern peeks out of a window and says “oh my gourd!” In the next panel he steps out the front door saying “It’s my favorite time of year” In the next panel Jack is standing on a snowy path with strings of lights and evergreens shouting “Christmas!” Last panel is up close of the Jack-o-lantern’s face saying “what? Were you expecting me to say something else,you racist piece of shit?”

Woodburned art piece. Shows a jack-o-lantern wearing a stitched together witch hat. A thin ghost weaves in and out through the jack-o-lantern's eyes and mouth.
