Q: How to get single Mormons to attend LDS Institute classes?

Chino Blanco, January 14, 2011May 25, 2011

A: Guilt and sex.

Tonight? Oh, behave. Rrrrr.

h/t: r/exmormon and t.t.a.n.s.

I know I shouldn’t be shocked and outraged that this comes from a church whose finest entertainment moment was the depiction of Johnny Lingo bartering for an 8-Cow Wife. And I know I’ve heard more returned missionaries than I can count who’ve been promised “a hot wife” in exchange for their faithfulness. But it is different when the video comes straight from the Church’s official website.

Deseret News recently mentioned David Cross’ latest release and called it “a probable R.” After listening to this track, I’d probably agree (technical note: the clip ends at 3:40 with Dave’s “sowwy” … nothing but dead air after that): Memo to hipster comedians: If you’re gonna rail, make some effort…

Read Twilight. Seriously, do it if you haven’t. Because when it comes to entertainment on the Internet, there’s not much out there that can beat Mormon discussions of Twilight. That’s why I read it (explained in the comments here), and I don’t regret a single page. (And with the movie…

    Well, you gotta have a line somewhere right?

    Otherwise even I could qualify.

    You *would* qualify, if you weren’t such a stubborn NPD piece of work 😉 …

    Until then, you still don’t get it, do you? This stopped being a negotiation about where lines should be drawn … years ago. We’re moving on, the demographics are in our favor (in terms of finding a ready audience for our flavor of concerns), and the rest of y’all can stew for all I care until you find the cojones to start posting at MSP.

    Chino, what makes you think I give two figs about your demographics? I’ve never been incredibly concerned about this issue.

    Besides, doesn’t this belong on the other thread you’ve got going on right now?
