I've never understood why people feel obligated to have candy available for trick-or-treaters. I remember a time when all you had to do when you didn't have candy was just leave your porch light off. Now you have to have candy or the kids will egg or toilet paper your house? I've even heard that if you are gone then you are supposed to leave a bowl of candy out so kids can take it. Really? Since when does Halloween mean parents and adults have to cower in fear to their pint-sized costumed overlords? If Veeblefester doesn't want to hand out candy or paper clips then that is his right.
