  1. Have you ever been extolling My Little Pony's virtues unflinchingly and biasedly to someone not willing to listen in a holier-than-thou fashion? You have? Then think for a moment about your reaction to people who knock on your door trying to convert your religion, and wonder if that's a feeling you should really be trying to instil in other people.

    1. @thelastgherkin I love those moments. The religious preachers are fun to argue with.

      1. @nerthos I'm more of the opinion that if I wanted to practice religion, I'd already be in a church/mosque/whatever.

        1. @thelastgherkin Don't get me wrong, I just argue with them pointlessly until I get bored or they leave.

          1. @nerthos I'm tempted to get a death metal band t-shirt just to wear when I open the door to them. It sends them packing almost instantly.

            1. @thelastgherkin Hehe, that would be fun. I'm going to place at least ten speakers and play Slayer at full volume to scare my neighbor's zealot kids. They are so annoying. All that while wearing a cultist suit with an inverted cross in the back.

              1. @nerthos Just wear a regular cross and walk on your hands

                1. @ceruleanspark I'm not sure I can even do that. The only athletic remarkable ability I have is being able to mantain balance always. And I can't shout things like "Satan will devour your soul" on a demonic voice while upside down.

              2. @nerthos Just once, answer the door naked and covered in pig's blood, I guarantee they will never bother you ever again.

                1. @colfax Exactly, if they don't bother again I miss all the funny moments. Maybe not in english, but in spanish, I can be very offensive and hurting while being polite, and they try to hide their rage.

                  1. @nerthos I used to live next door to an overzealous jehovah's witness... I eventually had to hang a goat skull on my door to be left alone.

                    1. @colfax You always have good solutions to everything. I only have a family of evangelists or zealous christians or something like that.
