Matasoga Geners Oh and mormons. They are insanely nice people but I have an irrational hatred for them. For them all. It's similar to a racial prejudice. This isn't irrational and is not bigoted... Or rather it could be, but Mormons have given many good reasons for rational, progressive, forward-thinking folk to regard them as enemies. For example, retaining their tax-exempt status as a religious institution (which is also obviously wrong, but a separate issue) while attempting an absolutely massive campaign to fund Proposition Eight, right in your own backyard. And let's not forget just how long their deity hated blacks and the sheer wackiness of their belief system. Anyone wanting more information should watch the film "Prop 8: A Mormon Proposition" and (for less information and more laughs, but also information, if you aren't familiar with their belief system) the musical "The Book Of Mormon." Exactly right. The mormon church used underhanded tactics to take away the rights of Gay couples to marry. I wrote an essay on it for school once. I know more about the mormon church than I care to. Josh have you ever heard of "Baptisms for the dead?"

Josh have you ever heard of "Baptisms for the dead?" Where they retroactively say that so-and-so would have been a Mormon, for sure, if they had lived longer, and call them baptized? Yes. This one married into a Mormon family for a bit, so I'm sure that she'll want in on all of this. Be watching for her to weigh in on this, after she moves us over to the Off-Topic thread.

I remember her mentioning that. But yes I had to participate in the baptisms for the dead. It's really creepy sir. They "bless you" with the spirit of someone who's passed on. It wasn't pleasant at all.

Lil Candy Princess I can't stand when people touch my face. No matter who it is I always have a problem with it. Peoples hands are usually always dirty... I was at a party and there was this very flamboyant fat man who, for some reason relating to the conversation, told me to open my mouth and then started to poke around with his hand like he was a dentist.....his fingers smelled like a poorly washed butt. It was disgusting and I would have bitten him if I didn't just want to back away and rinse my mouth out.

My newest pet peeve:
When my subordinates laugh obnoxiously as they flirt with customers. So. Annoying.
