My Sister was a basket case when her baby was Baptized. She's already a nutcase when it comes to her own health, and when everyone in her church wanted to see her baby, she freaked.prfsnl_gmr wrote:(2) we have small children; (3) the churches we attend are full of elderly people who fawn over them before and after the service...
"PLEASE DON'T TOUCH! Sorry, but please don't touch her."
I could see where she was coming from, as some elderly people would get right up in the baby's face. And I love our elders, but that's another reason I don't like the Peace be with You's; creepy old people handshakes. The willies it gives me (plus, can't we just move the service along).
Another weird thing about my wife's church is after "All the kids, come here for kid's time", all the kids go to some other wing of the church for "Kid's service". At my old Lutheran church, the kids would run up to the front of the pews, listen to a story from the Bible, and then go back to sit with their parents.
At this church the kids have their little talk as the old people "Awwww" and then it's as if the Pastor says, "Alright kiddies. Run along, time for the adults to talk". The "kid's sermon" is only there for show and serves no purpose if the kids are just going to wander off afterwards.
If I had the keys to the church van, services should not last over 45 minutes, even including communion.
Can't. Fucking. Wait.
Bought Mega Man X: Maverick Hunter on PSN, and was very excited to play this revamp of one of my favorite games ever. Apparently you can't paly PSP games purchased via PSN on the ps3. I don't know why I didn't think of that. Total waste of $10, and very bummed that I can't try this out.
