Subject: I confess just in time for the apocalypse
At first I was a little skeptical about the whole Mayan calendar doomsday prediction for 12/21/12. But then I saw women wearing pants to church last Sunday and I realized that it truly is the end of the world. So before I meet my maker, I'd better get a few things off of my chest.
First, to Bishop Zimmerman, I still have that hammer you lent me last year, and I admit I had no intention of returning it . . . until now. I'll try to get it back to you before tomorrow.
To Sister Renfro, I'm sorry to say that I'm the one who dented your fender in the church lot last April.
To all of you, remember how I used to get up in Fast and Testimony Meeting and apologize for offending people? Well, the truth is, I wasn't sorry. I mean, let's face it, Brother Harold does have doggy breath, Sister Riley probably has the biggest caboose on the planet, and the whole ward knows that Brother Gibson is gay. So I wasn't sorry and I apologize for lying to you.
I must also apologize to the 6 or 7 people I accidentally poisoned at the last ward potluck. That's right. It was my casserole. But honestly, who knew Spam had an expiration date?
To the Spencers, when I housesat for you in June I snuck into your file cabinet and reviewed your past tax returns. Also I used some of your "cooking" wine for medicinal purposes, and I'm afraid I'm responsible for that mysterious stain on Sister Renfro's thong panties. (My bad.)
To Brother Jeffries, I admit I've entertained many impure thoughts about your wife. Heck I'm not the only one. The woman has a body that won't quit. But I swear I wasn't the one who leaked those naked pictures of her onto the Internet. Also, I totally believe that it's just her head photoshopped onto another woman's body.
To Jenny, I really shouldn't have gone that far with you in the backseat after the stake Mix and Mingle. Your dad's right. I should marry you and make you an honest woman. Only now it's too late.
I hope this clears me with my maker and that tomorrow I'll see each and every one of you in the Celestial Kingdom, because you guys are the best ward ever!
Now I'm going to go out and return all of your Christmas presents.
If you would like to stop receiving these emails, just wait until tomorrow.
Also watch this review of The Girls From Fourth Ward and 2 other great Mormon-themed books by Bishop Flat Lander! Hint--Just in time for "Smithmas."
Don't you wish all Mormons were as refreshingly honest as Wilbur?
ReplyDeletePoor Sister Renfro...
They say confession is good for the soul. I'll bet there is a LOT of 'splainin' to do in the fourth ward. I am apparently soulless, so it doesn't bother me.
ReplyDeleteHaha, honesty isn't always a good thing, Ahab. And Jono, I sure hope for Wilbur's sake that his world ends tomorrow, otherwise he will have some major 'splaining to do.
ReplyDeleteI think Brither Nussel is going to have a pretty rough time in church on Sunday
ReplyDeleteI think so too, PM Girl, if we last that long. ;)
