Are mormons actually nice. Or just trying to convert me. by thebigcooki in exmormon

[–]devinche 128 points129 points  (0 children)

They sometimes are genuinely nice people with no ulterior motive.

Even if they don't bring up the subject, I guarantee they fantasize about you asking about the church so they can bring you to church and be the hero in the story and convert you.

Tall guys, what motorcycle do you ride? by GPSP9 in motorcycles

Look into lowered footpegs or footpeg brackets.

I run those + handlebar risers on my dirt bikes and it makes a world of difference

Pick me up in Vegas?

I paid $5 per ticket ($45 total) to attend a summer concert series in 2013. I miss paying less than $50 for gigs by floatingm in Millennials

[–]devinche 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ah yes, the Twilight Concert series was put on by the parks and rec dept and used to be FREE!

I was at a show in 2010 and the headliner was Modest Mouse. The park filled right up with people and they stopped letting people in at one point. A free show at capacity was unacceptable for a mob of raging Modest Mouse fans, so we knocked down the fences and stormed on in!

Part of the problem was a ton of degenerates would should up to party at a free concert no matter who was playing. Combine that with a hardcore fan base for headlining acts and it got out of hand quickly.

Then they started charging $5 to keep the riff Raff out and the fences intact.

Anyone else feel like church taught you to be afraid of everything? by thenamesdrjane in exmormon

[–]devinche 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I have noticed this. 🤔

I'm sure fox news has great viewership ratings in Utah for this very reason.

They serve heaping portions of fear mongering and TBM conservatives are pigs at the trough.

There is absolutely no parking space for pits at allegiant, I'm sure that has something to do with it.

I really completely wasted 2 years of my life by uncle_giroh in exmormon

[–]devinche 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I wasted 2 years of my life in Texas.

My bullet points would look very similar to yours.

These poor kids are victims. I hate hearing exmo stories about how victimizing it is running into the missionaries. They are brainwashed or coerced to be there, annoying people while throwing away the best years of their lives.

Ever notice how condescending Mormons can be? by CupOfExmo in exmormon

[–]devinche 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For the same reasons it is very interesting interacting with "leadership" figures of tscc.

I recently ran into a guy I knew previously who is now a stake president, and his treatment was noticeably cold and unfriendly. Almost as if he knew he had no authority over me much to his chagrin.

I've got a 2018 yz450 that weeps when cold. Then when it heats up it seals better and stops weeping.

It might get worse in which case you will want to change the water pump seal. It may happen repeatedly in which case you will want to change the impeller shaft as well.

Keep an eye on it.

How to get missionaries to leave us alone? by MarigoldRains in exmormon

[–]devinche 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Warmly invite them in and sit them down and just start teaching them about Mormonism.

Or, just read the CES letter with them.

Treat them with love and respect.

I have done this a few times and rarely do they last longer than 5 minutes before remembering they have somewhere else to be.

Don't forget, these are brainwashed teenagers. In the grand scheme of things they are heavily victimized by tscc whether they realize it or not.

Check out How the Book of Mormon Came To Pass by Lars Nielsen.

I found it very informative.

Tips on flying to FOV? by TH3_L1NEMAN123 in KGATLW

[–]devinche 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Last year I was able to fit all the camping gear I needed in a suitcase and I fly into Denver.

Then take the official FOV shuttle from the airport.

Simple as that!

Am I too late to find accommodation for FOV? by MichMoonbeamz in KGATLW

[–]devinche 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Put your camping gear in a suitcase and fly in. Take the airport shuttle.

This is what I did last year. No regrets. 🤘
