The New Terrorists

They're ever more tricky, these modern terrorists.  They appear cute and harmless, dressed as an endearing movie character or a historical or cultural figure, or anything, really, and demand a sugary treat or else a vague and villainous treat awaits you.  The veiled threat is worse for the lack of detail in it; you don't know when it will come, or where it will come from, or who will deliver the doom that awaits.  Any misfortune that occurs to you . . . it was THEM.  The next time a bird poops on your head . . . just remember the cute little kid who came to your house and was denied a treat. 

That said, I will be protecting myself and my future tonight bypassing out Kit Kats to the trick-or-treaters.
