A while back I was playing some on-line game... I think it was Planetside. I was using the name Gideon, as I often do.
So here I am, running around blasting the fools who enter my sight, and I get a tell from some fellow.
Other-dude: "Hey, great name! Are you a LDS?"
Now, I have several mormon friends. I dated a mormon (but I wasn't mormon enough, or at all), my best friend's whole family is mormon, though he left the church as a teenager. So I knew what LDS meant. But I was in a wierd, ass-like mood, so I decided to mess with this guy.
Me: "No man! Drugs are bad, just say no!"
Other-dude: "No, not LSD, LDS."
Me: "What's the difference? You're stuff stronger or something?"
Other-dude: "LDS! Latter-Day Saints"
Me: "Oh, are they like the Jehovah's Witness dudes?"
Other-dude: "No, the Mormons."
Me: "Oh, I try to stay away from cults. Thanks for asking, though!"
Other-dude: "The Church of Mormon is not a cult! Would you like me to explain it to you?"
Remembering some comedians rip on Latter-Day Saints, I replied...
Me: "Naw, I gotta launch a few grenades at these asshats... maybe latter in the day!"
Was that insensitive of me?
