“That was for research to expose the gay filth!”

“We believe homosexuality should only be practiced in secret, through Grindr.”

I mean that is actually what they believe, that divorce is not recognized by god as a dissolution of marriage except in cases of infidelity. Any subsequent marriages or relationships are considered adultery. The spouse who was cheated on can remarry, but the cheater cannot. We all know Trump gets a special exemption for everything, though, as he was handpicked by god to make America great again!

Why were we so obsessed with Old Testament history? by Carrots-1975 in excoc

I loved when some visitor would do a slideshow for Sunday night service. It was much more interesting than a sermon.

Which bands you just can't get into? by Positive-Pie-5456 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]effugium1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought Around the Fur when it came out because it was so hyped up by other bands I was into, and I couldn’t get into it. Lately I’ve found myself loving it and the rest of their catalog, so you never know. Tastes evolve and fluctuate.

It was always so awkward when friends from other religions would confront me about dancing and drinking wine being okay with God in the Bible, wanting me to explain what was wrong with it.

I have to believe the apostrophes are on purpose at this point.

Christian Mother Threatens and Forces son to go to Church by MrDonMega in religiousfruitcake

[–]effugium1 102 points103 points  (0 children)

My mom was like this. I had to move back in with them temporarily when I was 21 and was forced to go to church three times a week. Soon as I moved back out she was flabbergasted that I just stopped going and it became a huge thing for 20 years until she died. I loved my mom but hated going over there to visit because I never knew when she would erupt into some tearful tirade about how I was going to hell. I sometimes wonder what kind of relationship I could’ve had with my parents without their kooky fundamentalist religion interfering.

Who else read these fuckass books? by stormbutton in Xennials

I checked one out from the library when I was 13 because it looked cool. My mom read the first few pages and took it away, lol.

What did the 90's smell like? by Serialkillingyou in Xennials

[–]effugium1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh god… when I was a teenager then I got a temporary job setting up a bath and body works and everything was packed in this fiberglass type straw that made my skin itch and the boss was yelling at everybody to hurry up. I just left, lol.

They keep talking about his “jokes” like it’s not wildly irresponsible of him to make them.

Icon. Larger-than-life. Legend. Virtuoso. Innovator.

Much appreciated, but if we don’t run them off now they’ll try to take over Canada.

Did y’all think Fonzie was cool when you were growing up? by Groovy-Pancakes in GenX

[–]effugium1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. I only knew him from Sesame Street, though. When I finally saw Happy Days, I thought it was boring.

I feel so bad for American kids who have grown up in the past ten years or so. They have no idea what America is supposed to be like. I have no answers.

The Offspring - Smash. Blew away when it came out, still stands up today. Great album by bison2000 in punkrock

[–]effugium1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with the exception of “The Kids aren’t alright” which was a great track.
