reminds me of, during Covid, the JW´s made homecalls to folks, and i got one. Think the person calling me regretted that for along time after. My father said to me " i know they are annoying but you could been nicer" and i said " no,because i do not respect them"

The sacrament bread has been blessed for the special occasion. It's like the Seth Andrews talk "Christianity Made Me Talk Like an Idiot", it's not Jesus until you say the special words exactly right. The bishop will make you do it again if you mess up. But yes, we can eat the special bread before it's been specialated.

Not just a Mormon movie month, but a Heather Beers retrospective. Charity from this movie is Charly in next week's.

They are heathy because they are mini! :)

Not for nothing, but when it comes to movie prudes, JWs are solidly in 1st place - not even sharing the top slot with Mormons.

My very atheist ex catholic husband is intrigued by pretzel casserole

Maybe Google likes me? Cuz I looked for pretzel casserole and it looks like boring, normal Thanksgiving stuffing

Tartan sounds like a character from a fantasy novel

I was not ready for Tartan backwards in the preview and snorted loudly at work, THANKS GUYS.

Can Mormons just eat Wonder Bread any old time? How is that allowed when they use it in their communion? It seems, y'know, blasphemous.

" there is no Flavour here" sums up Mormonism. the white wonder bread of religion

"dress her like Fran Drescher in the nanny" Jokes on you Mormons, i am into that

So excited for next week's movie! It's based on a book that was super popular with teen Mormon girls in the 90's where I grew up. Only to be displaced by Twilight.

Or that Talking Heads movie with John Goodman! Because: (1) takes place in a small town full of weirdos. (2) There's a talent show. (3) ... It's a movie...?

This movie is starting to feel like that Twilight Zone episode where a couple is trapped in a nightmarish small town they can’t escape from.

Chicago calls its world-renowned casserole a "pizza."

I wouldn’t want to live in a nightmare world where there is a “Baptist discount” sign hanging in a business. Also I live in a small Texas town and no one has ever asked me what religion I am.

Utah. I realise that's supposedly a 'where' and not a 'when', but I maintain my answer.

I just started watching the movie. The main character, what’s his name, something bizarre, drives into town in his 1970’s Ford pickup after passing a woman in a 1960’s Datsun roadster and is passed by a police car from the late 50’s. When the hell is this supposed to be happening?

What the hell? What is it with mid-westerners and “casseroles?”

Strawberry Pretzel Salad is so good. I'm a midwesterner so many of the salads I had at potlucks involve mini marshmellows so I don't have the best taste.

My aunt used to make that stuff for family gatherings and I loved it. It became a joke between us because I always ate most of it. I guess what I'm saying is it's delicious and everyone who eats it is super cool. That's locked in.
Markus Nävergård
what sort of unholy abomination of food was that? It sounds like a crime against God and Nature

My great aunt used to make “pretzel salad” for every family event -think jello, pretzels, some kind of sugary cream cheese mixture - and she would be SO confused and hurt when it was not set out with the salads and instead was set with the desserts. Because it’s OBVIOUSLY a salad.

My whole childhood we met for church in an old used car dealership building. Sometimes the heat went out in winter and we got to go home early. The back was rented separately as a private garage, and sometimes the fumes were so bad we got to go home early. Before that we met in a community center, and before that in a private home.We never had more than 30 members though. Over 200 definitely qualifies the Branch for a building.
