Me: *stabs vampire*

Wife: You're supposed to give them candy!
Me: Well, that's a sticky situation now, isn't it, Barbara?
Vampire Candy Mishap
Categories
Explanation
Experiment
The humor comes from the classic Halloween tradition of giving candy to trick-or-treaters, specifically vampires. The person in the story completely misses that and instead attacks the vampire. The wife is shocked and points out the obvious social expectation. It's funny because of the mismatch between expectation and action.
