1. Fast Sundays are never fast.
Nothing is worse than going out of your mind from hunger while having to listen to people have mini emotional breakdowns in front of the entire congregation for testimony meeting. There's a reason my family calls fast Sundays “cry and tell”; its because you can tell from hem crying that their probably not in the headspace they should be. I'm not trying to be shady, but if you burst into tears after being at the podium for less than five seconds, you're not feeling the spirit, you're just an emotional wreck.
2. Going shopping for modest clothes is a nightmare.
Why is it so hard to find a decent maxi skirt and a shirt than can cover both my stomach and shoulders? Is that combination really too much to ask for? Or maybe some shorts that don't show off almost my entire butt (which by the way kind of eliminates the point of wearing the pants in the first place)? You can sometimes find something appropriate at H&M or Forever 21 during winter months, but once April comes along you'll be stranded with nothing but Crop Tops and mini skirts!
3. You have a large array of alternative curses to use.
From “Oh My Heck” to “What the Freak”, your always ready to circumvent a not-so-nice-word whenever you please, and you never slip! (Yes, NEVER!! Well, at least that's what you might tell yourself to feel better… but we all know the truth.)
4. You've seen Johnny Lingo at least a dozen times.
And you never stop bragging about how you’re an “eight cow woman”
5. No matter how hard you try, you still can't understand most of Isaiah.
“Why is there so much symbolism! I mean, the symbols have symbols! How is anyone expected to understand this!”
6. Elder Uchtdorf is the coolest person on the planet.
I mean, he's a total silver fox!? I know he's old enough to be my grandpa but that doesn't mean I can't find him attractive! It's only weird if you make it weird!
7. Mutual Activites that were planned by the Deacons are always a mess.
We’re either playing basketball or dodgeball… No exceptions!
8. Buying something from Starbucks and telling all your friends it's not coffee
“I SWEAR ITS JUST HOT CHOCOLATE! THERES NO CAFFEINE IN IT! I KNOW IT LOOKS LIKE COFFEE BUT I PROMISE IT ISN’T!”
9. Falling asleep during conference every. single. year.
“I promised myself I was gonna watch six sessions this year… I can't fall asleep agai….
10. The happiness you feel when you go to an activity and there are refreshments
“YES! DONUTS AND LEMONADE! THANK GOODNESS!” An activity without treats is like a boat with no sail… pointless!
