My wife is a witch (a tradition of the Welsh part of her family) and someone said something derogatory about witches, so my wife said: "That's not right! I am a witch and I am upset that you said that!"
The person back-tracked and said: "Well, you are a white witch! I didn't mean white witches!"
My wife fixed her with her evil eye (it's very evil, when she's angry. the irises go yellow! :oO ) and said: "I am not a white witch. I am a witch!"
Ouija boards are awesome! I played with one once and it really stoked my ego because it announced to my friends that I was coming over, and vibrated a lot once I joined in.
Ah high school. The littlest things make you cooler.

Ouija boards have nothing to do with not believing in God. Years ago, as an atheist, I had some very interesting experiences with the ouija board. It is quite impressive, whatever the "scientific" explanation for the phenomenon is.
My brother took it with him to BYU. He lived in Helaman Halls which was men's housing back then. He said there was on RM in the dorm who was scared of ouija boards. So they played a small trick on him.
The building was built with dressers built in. If you pulled out your drawer there was only a sheet of plywood between you and the dresser in the next room. All you had to do was drill a hole in that plywood and you'd be in contact with the back of the drawer of the dresser in the next room.
They drilled the requisite hole from the next room where a confederate was ready with a long, thin stick.
So in the RM's room my brother and a friend are fooling around with the ouija board. They tell the RM, "we asked it if the Church was true and it said it would give us a sign."
At that moment the drawer containing the RM's garments suddenly starts to slide open "all by itself."
The look on his face was priceless. Unfortunately my brother and the other guy couldn't stay in character and burst out laughing.
My brother, after he told me this story, told me that he threw away my ouija board because I should not have such things.
Ironically, when my mother found out I was studying witchcraft, her response was, "I don't even know you anymore. What else don't I know; are you going to become a lesbian, too?" I didn't have the heart to tell her I was also bisexual.

I'm with you entirely and the same; Atheist Democrat with silly mother except I'm Bisexual.

Hey Mom! I'm sorry, but I changed my mind about becoming your little Liberal Lesbian Luciferian and have decided to try Gansta-Rapping Metermaid with a million bucks to liquidate in Nigeria instead.
