More Smutty Than You: TSR's Hall of Shame

[Paden]

I live an hour away from Nauvoo, Illinois, and just driving through certain areas of that place gives me the creeps. Taking the tour literally made the hair on the back of my neck stand up, I just could not shake the feeling I got from that place until I was sixty miles away from it. *shudder*

I think the best response I've ever heard by someone who was accosted by Xtians with the question, "Have you Found Jesus?" was "Try a synagogue.  I understand he's Jewish."

That's perfect,  I'll use it next time Jehowa's witnesses come to my house!
In Poland you won't see Mormons ( but they have church in Warsaw ), instead of them we have a lot of Jehowa's witnesses. And sometimes it is very, very difficult to tell them "no" if you want to be polite.

I'm trying to remember what it is if you want to get rid of JWs quickly - the basic gist is you've been excommunicated, but its a different term - gets them almost -run- away from you.  I'll see if any of my housemates know - term might be different in different languages, though.

[Miikan]

That would be great, thanks!
In my work I had a chance to visit their HQ near Warsaw. It's very big and beautiful. they have even a small waterfall made there. But all of us had a strange feeling of being watched, and as "non believers" we were hardly tolereted there and we couldn't leave the room where we had to wait for our group. And altough we were their interpreters and guides they called us "servants". After this visit I can see that they say one thing and do another.

Whenever my grandmother would get those people that knock on your door and ask, "Do you want to find..."  she would politely say no and close the door before they could get another word in.  I always thought it was so bad-ass when I was younger.  Now I think I would forget the "no" and just shut the door.

I usually find that telling the JW's that I'm a professional blood donor helps get rid of them.  They don't believe in transfusion.  So if you babble to them about how you're AB negative and that you regularly get phone calls to give blood and how proud you are to save lives that way, they often back off. 

I've also found that trying to sell your own religion on them can help too. 

"I'd like to talk to you about God."

"I'd like to talk to you about the Flying Spaghetti Monster!"

And then everything they say about their God, you twist to yours, but make it seem even better.  If they say their God will save your soul, you say that your God not only saves your soul, but then will save the souls of any of your offspring, as long as you have them dipped in Maranaria sauce when they're infants. If you can really convince them that you're hung up on a certain religion, they'll back off.

"I'd like to talk to you about the Flying Spaghetti Monster!"

That's good!  I may use it next time! 

[Tabby]

I dipped my offspring in Alfredo sauce, they were saved and had a cheesy goodness!

[Paden]

Did you remember to do the parmesan sprinkle that adds an extra blessing?

[Darqstar]

Mmmm Alfredo!

And the parm cheese is for the yearly renewal of blessings. 

Communion consists of REAL red wine and garlic bread.

The word you're looking for for chasing off JW's is "apostate."  Tell them you're been made an apostate by the church and they have to get away from you asap so that your rational way of thinking won't infect them.  Don't worry about calling them names too much - they call you "worm food" under their breath when they are leaving.

Sounds like the communion for pagans, except for my personal use I prefer oat cookies *num*

Actually, except for the garlic part, sounds like catholic communion too. >.>

I can't believe I'm "defending" Evi, but it looks like she used a bathing suit alpha instead of actually finding one more suitable for undies.  I don't think they're riding up on purpose...they're just high-cut in a way that isn't that abnormal in a girl's tank suit.  Totally abnormal for underwear, though.  :/

[Moonie]

I can't believe I'm "defending" Evi

     TRAITOR!!! 

[SoggyFox]

Backhanded defending?  I like that.

And you're right.  I don't think she's intentionally smutty, I think she's just incompetent.
