For most, it\u2019s a chance to get festive and do some fun things with your kids, and anonymously deliver candy to neighborhood kids.  However, some people are not fans of the new tradition.  \u201cI think it is silly,\u201d said resident Tom Rudel.  \u201cWhy do I want to give someone else a chore?  Not to mention, something so unproductive.  You\u2019re just putting candy in a bag and giving it to children.  They are going to be getting so much candy at Halloween.  Why not challenge them to do 20 push-ups a night until Halloween?\u201d  Other residents agree.  \u201cDo we really need one more thing to stress about during Halloween?,\u201d asks Michelle Stagemeyer. &#8220;We seem to be one of the last people to get this every year, so it takes us hours to find two houses who haven\u2019t been booed.  It\u2019s quite annoying.\u201d\n<!--more-->\nStapleton resident Jessica Alesch takes it to a whole new level.  \u201cWe got booed and I simply kept the candy, and put the sign on our door,\u201d said Alesch.  \u201cThe chain ends with me.  I am not going to be part of the problem.  I am a solution person.  Why give someone\u2019s kids candy, and then give them a chore to do?  What\u2019s next?  Dropping off my dry cleaning at random peoples\u2019 houses or giving them my grocery list?  Sorry, but this is a tradition I am not getting behind.  Call me boo hum bug if you want, but that\u2019s the way it is going to be.\u201d\nAlesch hopes to be on top of things next year, and hopes to help out other families annoyed by this \u201ctradition.\u201d  \u201cNext year, I plan to post a link to the <a href=\"http:\/\/christmas.organizedhome.com\/crafts\/halloween\/boo-youve-been-booed-poem-signs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">booed site<\/a> on my Facebook page.  That way, people who don\u2019t want to take part in it, just have to post the sign on their door to ward off any would be boo-ers.\u201d\n]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\t\t\t\t<![CDATA[]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[155],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-5233","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-issue-92","7":"entry"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5233","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=5233"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5233\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=5233"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=5233"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=5233"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
