Sounds like she’s just not that into you. Sorry.
[Dracula from Symphony of the Night]
Perhaps the same could be said of all religions…

I bet *Covered In Bees would agree, but Christopher Lee’s version was way better, and better for getting a pagan chick into bed. Instead of having the central conflict as patriarchy vs. matriarchy, it was Presbyterianism vs. Paganism: the, uh… the, um… The Crus-ide in the He-brides!
I’ll keep working on it .
OK, I gotta speak up here. I have several in-the-flesh Wiccan/neo-Pagan friends. Most of the women are hot. All of them are eccentric to varying degrees, but few are social outcasts or emotionally unhinged.
Also, if I believed that the Creator did not reveal Himself to us through the prophets of Israel & the apostles of Jesus & their Biblical writings, and instead left it up to us to cobble together a workable religion, then I do think Wicca or some similar faith would be a pretty good option- Deity revealed through Nature- masculine & feminine, celebrating the seasonal cycles of death & rebirth, focusing either emotional or Natural-Divine energy through ritual, treating each other decently with an underlying motivation of Karma, not to mention an open-ended Afterlife & a freer view of sex.
saoirse, the 2006 version of *The Wicker Man *was indeed terrible… But it was so terrible it was awesome. I saw it when my friends and I did a local version of B-Fest 'cause we couldn’t haul down to Northwestern this year.
Technically, Sgt. Howie was an Anglican, but a very conservative one (in the book, he applied for the priesthood in his youth but was rejected because of his strictness. Interestingly, he was also a Socialist in politics and a philo-Semite.)
Rubbish. You did it because Nathaniel Webster told you to.
And Webster told us to because now that we were our own special shiny happy country, we could have sensical spellings instead of all those stupid extra letters the British left in.
This is like when I see hot LDS boys in their white shirts and name tags. Why’s the Lord gotta make the sweetest peaches so damn intent on staying pure? And sure they’ll talk to you, but it always turns back to (sigh) God.
So why if I just glance at them and keep my eye on them covertly on the subway they don’t look up from their book, but if I stare at them they look up? And why is this phenomenon sufficiently reproduceable?
Yeah, some people just don’t know what the fuck their talking about. He’s out of touch.
Well then how come I can never stare at pretty girls on the subway? They always turn around to look. You’d think that there would be some large proportion that I could stare at unnoticed, but no.
Are you kidding? Those guys are like the most generic “male” you can have.
Story Time:
A few years ago I was wearing this shirt when I accidentally opened the door for some LDS guys.
I’ve never seen them so nervous! It was hilarious. I just stood outside with them for a bit, grinning and watching their eyes. Every few seconds they’d look at my shirt as if I were Satan himself and they were just waiting for me to reveal my true form to them.
We ended the conversation by saying I didn’t have a lot of time to keep chatting with them (True, not a lie), so we made plans for them to come by later.
When they came back later, I stuck my brother in this shirt to go and talk to them, while I waited inside.
He said that it was so awesome watching their eyes constantly glance at his shirt.
contented sigh
Good times.
Hey, I’d be worried if I was a Mormon missionary at the home of a couple of Juggaloes too.
It is time to link to the BEST SOMETHING POSITIVE COMIC EVAR!
That is all.
Exactly, we need a way to talk about REAL magic/k. :rolleyes:
Did you even read any of the thread before you responded because it doesn’t seem like you did.
Seriously! We’re not even talking about that anymore. We’re talking about freaking out the Mormon boys. 
I’m an orthodox scoffer, not one of you damned Reformed Scoffers. splittists!
Letters the English (well, their continental forbears) added to the original Latin, FWIW. So think of your spelling as re-normalising the lingo.
Well, there are quite a few explanations that come to the obective mind:
1: You’re lying about it, which I doubt, and I’m willing to give you the benefit of the doubt hat you actually think this is happening.
2: You’re using selective data; i.e. you’re recognizing all the times that it happens and discounting the times it doesn’t.
3: You’re misinterpreting data; i.e. finding a cause and effect that doesn’t exist. Just because A happens before B doesn’t mean that A causes B.
At any rate, it’s a very dangerous proposition using your own subjective data to prove your X-Men like powers. A much more objective viewpoint is needed.
