The meaning of Halloween is to get as much candy as you can and keep as much of it as
it as you can away from the kids. Buy the big bag of assorted candy bars and
take out the ones you like before you put any out for the kids.

Didn't you see the clip! It is not about candy... it is about fighting off evil spirits.

And those evil spirits eat up candy likr crazy. My daughter has a 4 year old and a six year old evil spirit who probably eat
7 or 8 pounds of good candy each....Lol :smile:

Those Halloween caramels, that look like benign chewy caramels but were really like chewing on leather, that all the really mean folks gave out instead of those little minature chocolate bars that all the kids really wanted, can be construed as evil.

So the parallel has been made.

Yes indeed, it is so simple to apply ONE person's belief/behavior to an entire population, isn't it? Simplicity is so attractive, especially to the foolish and to those that only want to smear.

Have you read your posts? You do that all the time.

I wouldn't say you wanted to smear, just look like you know about something, you actually don't.
