If you didn't want me making jokes about the casket, why even invite me to the funeral?

My first experience at a funeral was my friend's mom who died of cancer when we were eight. He was totally unemotional about it. Kept touching her nose and saying how sticky it was. Didn't seem to give a shit about anything.
I left with no idea what to think. Funerals are weird.
That sounds like a formative memory
Hmm, which one of these categories covers being raised in a cult?
...or is it just all of them?
1,2,4 and 6
Because if you where raised (born) in a cult its not your choice.
Ah, but it can lead to poor life choices... and also fill my brain with things I shouldn't say...
I pick things I shouldn't say 100! (If ya want to share something)
crosses finger that i can solve it
Hmm, ok...
"Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife..."
Hmm... What sentence will you find in every patriarch religion?
Religions Around the World
There's definitely levels to this.
I feel seen
In my mind, the "getting to know you" phase is when you conceal all that stuff. Not in a dishonest way. Show them who you are. They just don't need to know why you're that way.
"Le tits now" for $1000, Alex.
Disappointed there is no "Potent Potables" category.
No Potpourri either
Bonus points for hitting all categories in a single sentence.
All of my poor life choices were based on lies and omissions. I recently found out that my highschool lied to me about that honors placement test to keep me in the remedial classes. The guidance counselor who slipped up and told that to me refused to say that that was wrong.
That's all the fun stuff tho?
Is "never learning how to set vertical alignment" one of the spaces under "poor life choices"? /s
