Moroni-Baroni

[jamesq]

I have the day off so I went out running late in the morning. After I finished, I was still about a klick from the house so I was walking back. Coming towards me were two bright-eyed, pimply-faced and ever-so-eager young men in suits and ties.

Can you guess who they were? Of course you can!

Holding a Copy of the Book of Mormon, Elder Visit-The-Infidel-With-Explanatory-Pamphlets tries to give it to me.

"I have a gift for you!"
"If I didn't take the gift from the cute red-headed girl who works for you guys, what makes you think I'll take it from you."
"But, but, it's a present."

I'll leave aside the fact that this so-called present is really a set of chains for the moment.

So my compulsion to tweak the noses of Mormons continues. I suspect it's part of a greater urge to tweak the noses of any evangelical type, but Mormons are what I have to work here in Cowtown so that's who gets their shit disturbed.

As an aside, It's been observed by some that if I'm macking on Mormon missionaries, I'm getting pretty desperate. I must think on this.

A cute girl is a cute girl, man, regardless of religious... leanings. :-)

I mean, sure, there'd likely be... issues, but what relationship doesn't have those?

Just be sure to ID her first. ;) Otherwise, the man speaks true.

Boy, wouldn't it be a shame if the reason you saw guys is because someone realized that cute girls were wasted on our neighbourhood? Next time, coffee! ;)

You should go for your walks with a black rubber buttplug in your backpack. Offer it as a gift after accepting their book.

:)

I love your evil mind.

Seriously though, as amusing as that would be, I'd much rather offer them a book. I think this one would be appropriate. It was quite an eye opener.

Or possibly this book. I was talking to Steph earlier, and mentioned how I'd love to have this handy to hand to them. "Here, I'd like to give you this in the hopes that you achieve some common sense!" Or some atheistic-toned Chick Tracks?

Hell, I think The Demon Haunted World should be required reading in high school (fat chance though).

Mr. Chick has had a few choice words about Mormons too. I wouldn't use them even if I had them though - It feels like cheating.

And when people find a black butt plug in your backpack, "It's for the Mormons!" Just isn't a good enough explaination as to why it's there.

Been reading?
