.....care more about your family looking happy and wholesome on Facebook than you care about what's actually happening to your family behind closed doors.

Love this one! When my never-mo wife met one of my TBM older sisters for the first time years ago, she asked me why she talked like she did (high pitched voice, slow speech, eyes wide open, nodding her head, etc.) and said she sounded like she was talking to a child.
That's when I explained to her what "primary speak" was in the mormon church. My wife thought it was very strange.
Date your cousin by mistake. Hey, it happens. Like to me! I think it was on the second date at BYU that we discovered that we were something like 2nd cousins once removed.
Can they help it if they were more valiant in the preexistence? God likes them best, and everyone else is just jealous. It's hard going through life knowing you are going to God's special heaven and others aren't so worthy!

I was watching an episode of People's Court on Y/T the other day involving two women disputing the costs of stabling a horse. They both sounded like 12 year olds. I wondered if at least one was a member of the church and boom! One said in that primary child voice, "The horse wasn't ready when the young women of the war..."
She caught herself realizing that Judge Milian (and 300 million people in the US) have no idea what she was talking about. The lady changed it to "My church group wanted to ride the horse."
Are fine with that old family picture of great grandpas family…that third wife was only fifteen and grandpa was not a perv….use that term often ….those were different times and it was common to rob cradles…it was all about looking after widows…no widows were looked after for free ….gotta love mormons haha
Luckily the Native American is only kneeling on one side facing the same way as BY with a trapper on the other side. It's in an intersection kitty-korner to the temple. I guess it's still there. Been a while since I've been anywhere near it.
Considering what Brigham did to Native Americans I see it in somewhat the same way as if there were a statue of a Jew kneeling beside Hitler.
Thank you. Been so long since I've seen it and in my memory I pictured the trapper and Native American kneeling. At least they aren't doing that but I still don't like it at all.
I have the Cutco set my mom had. My Mormon aunt was selling them to everyone and my mom felt obligated to buy. My set is now over 55 years old and I still use it exclusively.
Last year one of the knives broke when I dropped it. I remembered my aunt pushing the sales promise that they had a lifetime guarantee. They were very expensive even back then. On a whim, I contacted Cutco and they actually replaced it.
My Mormon relatives were always selling stuff! Amway comes to mind.
I learned about it when my good friend invites me over to dinner in my twenties and I sat through that spiel.
Then over the course of 20 years, I would get several Amway invites each year from various ward members, but I was really good at asking questions that told me it was Amway
Which always resulted in a polite "No Thank You".
That was another Mormon thing to solve all their financial ills.
