Not a huge fan of mormons myself. But danged if”n I have ever flicked a booger towards one.
I do remember this bit of advice from my High School days, “If you go camping with a Mormon, be sure that there are several fellow Mormons. B/c if there are no other bro’s or sis’s around, then the party is on like Donkey Kong. That Latter Day Saint gon’ drink all yer booze & smoke all the weed.
As long as there is accountability your camping stash is safe.
What I am saying is that If you go camping & are bringing any mormon persons, do make sure you have at least 2 present at all times.
That is all.
Bearing witness amongst their kind will save you $’s personally.
I am so not kidding.
in high school I dated a Mormon girl and it was so bizarre. she only ever showed ONE emotion, happiness. that’s it, and even then you could tell it was genuine. Like I remember she absolutely bombed an exam and it was clear she was upset about it to point she wanted to cry but she couldn’t. she refused or simply didn’t know how to show that emotion.
Also yeah she drank like a fish when her Mormon friends weren’t around.
The Mormon girl I dated in high school also tried to always appear in a good mood, put together, etc… but she really struggled, and had a lot of emotional outbursts while we were together. She even hinted at suicidal thoughts once or twice. Years later I realized she was probably dealing with some serious mental health issues. But the reason for the happy face is simple: they’re taught that if you’re unhappy that’s because of a lack of faith in the holy spirit. If you are truly faithful then it will always fill you up with happiness and positive energy. So letting other people see that you’re sad or upset about something will make them question your faith and dedication to the church. Even admitting it to themselves makes them ashamed, like they’ve committed a terrible sin. It’s really sick.

This has to be one of the most soul-crushingly evil things I’ve ever heard. What a monstrously simple and devastatingly unhealthy thing to do to a person’s brain.
I can attest to this story. And of course they never bring their own, so they’re consuming all of your stuff, throwing your carefully planned intoxicant inventory completely out of whack. But also don’t get them in groups of more than 3, or they’ll wake you up before breakfast making a racket playing basketball.

I’ve experienced this. Its real and kinda pathetic.

It really is. It’s maddening. But that’s what cults do. I’m glad I’m out.
Have you heard the good word of our dark lord and master, Satan, from whom all human advancements, intoxicants, and good music originate?
I’m a card-carrying member of TST! And occasional listener of LPOTL.
Hail Satan!

How does one play basketball in the woods?
