4.0BRAINROT SCORE

OCTOBER 31ST VS. NOVEMBER 1ST— ORIGIN, MEANING & USAGE

October 31st vs. November 1st A before-and-after meme format that contrasts the mood or surroundings on October 31, still Halloween, with those on November 1, when Christmas takes over, as in shops, playlists and social feeds. Mariah Carey's annual Christmas-season announcement is a frequent shorthand for the switch.

Origin:The format is a seasonal comparison joke tied to the Halloween-to-Christmas jump on the calendar, usually posted on the night of October 31 or the morning of November 1. Daily Dot documents the closely linked Mariah Carey defrosting joke, which pairs the end of Halloween with the start of Christmas music and has appeared each year since about 2018.
