Hehe look at this quote from this guy's Mormon blog:
Have you ever wondered what a BYU Fraternity would be like? Well, BYU’s comedy club Divine Comedy put together a skit a while ago with their interpretation. Check it out below.

I remember doing crazy things like chugging root beer and staying up all night (no girls in apartment though). My roommates slept on the balcony and in an igloo they built in the snow. Yeah, crazy times. BYU students really know how to live on the edge.

I know it may not sound very “exciting” to people from other cultures, but it goes to show, you can have a good time and remember it too. To be it is better than waking up the next morning wondering what you may have done in your drunk stupor.
Hehehe... I don't think I'll say anything. I don't think I really need to...
Here's the video he referred to:

They say they're a comedy group, but I'm not sure what exactly they were going for with that scene. It seems like they were deliberately making fun of their own Mormon abstinence from all things fun.
They can't watch fucking R-rated movies at BYU?
I've never understood that. Abstaining from alcohol, tobacco, drugs etc. makes sense to me that people would want to do that, and I respect that, if I disagree.
Caffeine, abstaining from that I don't understand at all...
Same with extramarital sex... If you use a condom, why the fuck not?
Same with profanity, of course, I generally think that people who find profanity offensive, well maybe thinking original thoughts is not their forte...

But I think really the ban on violence and profanity and everything else is really the most ridiculous and restrictive thing they do...
I mean, there's a lot of great movies and great songs I couldn't watch if I wanted to avoid all violence, sensuality, profanity etc...
I mean, how else would I watch A Clockwork Orange?
You can't really make a clean version of that, you'd cut out half the movie or at least blur the entire thing over if you tried to get rid of every tit and graffiti cock in the scene, let alone the excellent gratuitous rape scenes.
If you removed everything offensive, you wouldn't really have a movie.

Anyway, stupid rant over...
So, there's this cute little Asian guy I mentioned before, well I'm still wondering about him... So I fb friended him, so at least he wouldn't have any doubt I'm gay... If he is indeed wondering that... So many ellipsises...
But I don't think he checks it that often, so we'll see how long it takes him...

I'm kinda not very happy, had a swim meet today, and discovered that it appears that my libido is not quite what it used to be...
I dunno why, but it seems pretty well par for the course recently. That ain't good.

Anyway, reading the New Testament now. I've tried to read the Old Testament but it ain't easy. Genesis is okay, and Exodus, the only other book I've read, isn't quite as good, cause the flight from Egypt is good but then there's just pages and pages of rules, including a whole lot on how you should leaven bread, what days you can do it, what days you can't, etc.
And then God has to describe this whole elaborate way to build a tabernacle, using a few pages to do so, and then it goes through again to describe exactly how Moses did so, all the shit he did, basically repeating the instructions only they were describing what he did...

In the Old Testament it's just very repetitive, both within books and also across books, like there are some stories that appear to have common orgins in that their stories are so similar...
And it doesn't help that it's so motherfucking long, like 4 times longer than the New Testament.

The New Testament is so far so much better. It's more entertaining and the morals are also SO much fucking better.
Although, it does seem to me to be kinda like a lot of what I've thought, Jesus advocates deferment of basically all worldly pleasure and enjoyment, because you'll benefit in the afterlife...
Well, what if you're wrong? Then you'll just have a shit life.
It seems to me like a bank account. You can put in money, in the form of work and deferment of pleasure, and you can then take out more money (theoretically) in the future. But people like Mormons to me, it seems like they never stop putting into the bank account, they never stop deferment of current pleasure, in which case it's stupid, it may feel good to know how virtuous you are, but you've deferred all pleasure and then deferred it again and never enjoyed it, I suppose on the theory that you'll enjoy it in the afterlife.
Well, I'm quite sure you won't.

And I usually say I'd much rather enjoy myself and perhaps go a little crazy while young and have a fucking blast, rather than defer all pleasure to the end of my life, because then I can't do those things anymore, all I'll have is boring old retirement...
And what if I get a disease and die before retirement? Ugh...

Anyway, stupid rants over, g'night Oasies.
