16 meaningful meanderings:
Tons of these don't apply to me, and I'm quite happy. yeehaw.
Actually, mine was about my coworker and the things that he did. But this is a good list too.
John Bytheway is a comedian?
Yeah, most of these don't apply to me at all!
These were really funny! Although, as a rule, I hate most mormon movies.
Well, some of these apply to me. But I'm not a mormon. Ha!
LOL That was funny. It's sad that most of them apply to me .... especially the last one. LOL I graduated from Institute TWICE. lol
Except... I drink DrPepper on a regular basis (I've stopped drinking it like 5 times and always go back.) lol
Yeah, not many of these apply. Do I have to give my CTR ring back?
Not many of these apply to me either. Does that make me a bad or jack mormon?
i didn't do too bad, except for picking my favorite temple... my mother in law had more to say about it than I :frown: cuz we all know taht san diego is the best temple in teh world LOL and look at my typos, different computer so i don't care
yikes...and here I thougt i'd been walkin' the wild side my whole life...turns out I'm a stereotypical stereotype.
I feel depressed now, I need a pan of brownies.
*kidding*.(about the brownies)
FUNNY..Lets see...Well I am the youngest of eight and I do live in Utah. Other than that. My mom graduated from seminary for me {got all the books and did them herself} because I never went! There are not too many LDS movies I like. Don't really LOVE any. No Young woman medallion. I didn't go to BYU. I hate jell-O especially when it has fruit petrified in it like a science project!
I am jealous that you live outside of Utah. Would love to do that!
although I am happy with where I am now.
Jello should JUST be jello, no fruits or veggies inside!!
I DO love me some LDS movies though, maybe it is because I don't live in Utah or Idaho. LOVE The R.M., Singles Ward, Best Two Years, Sons of Provo, Mobsters and Mormons, Baptists at Our Barbecue and so on. My sister Sam collects them, she has every version of Pride and Prejudice MADE including the boring Mormon one. I am NOT a Bonnet book/movie fan, but the BRIDE & Prejudice, the Bollywood one is funny!
Okay Wendy that was really funny for me! I laughed because I know people who a lot of them apply to and it just made me laugh!
"you think heck is the place people go who don't believe in gosh"
Hilarious.
Hysterical . . . may I add a few
You know you are Mormon if . . .
You had the bridal store sew sleeves into your strapless wedding dress
You know how to can peaches
You have more kids than Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt
Your swimsuit has sleeves and a skirt
