If only these people had been around in the late 70’s, when my dad and stepmother converted to Amway. (I suspect their Amway gatherings were really key parties, but dad is mum about it.)
@Pedonator: Now I want to watch Ice Storm. Fuck.
It’s a sad night in Stinquelandia when an After Dark post hangs out like a wallflower, lonely, too meek to beg for comments.
This is not a reflection on you, Nojo.
@Promnight: Thank you! Can I buy you a drink?
@Pedonator: Oh, my. Amway! My cousin/Godmother got into that shit. Mormons are especially adept at starting these multi-level whajamacallits. The ex-Mormon message board has some multi-level thingamajig horror story on it every month. Mormons are supposed to keep a stockpile of nonperishable food on hand for their version of the End Days, and that mentality seems to make them especially vulnerable to must-have survivalist merchandise. Hmmmm…maybe we should hang out with the Mormons during The Cannibalistic Anarchy.
@JNOV: I’m with you sister. Anyway, I hear Mormon boys are especially tasty.
@Pedonator: Indeed they are.
