How about $1.3 million to study the effect of classical music on cats. Because that couldn't possibly have been done for free in someone's spare time using YouTube music.

Seriously; what's so unattractive about her that she can't find any prospects at all? This really sounds like a smokescreen for her not wanting to be in a relationship, but wanting a baby anyway.

Maybe just stop stealing everything from their cultures: https://babylonbee.com/news/woman-singles-ministry-gets-married-promoted-real-christian https://babylonbee.com/news/local-woman-hopes-husband-listened-closely-to-pastors-sermon-on-self-righteousness https://babylonbee.com/news/pastor-who-breathlessly-praised-mothers-last-month-absolutely-thrashes-congregations-dads-on-fathers-day (Yes, once again, the Bee is far more on-point than any other religious periodical. The Onion can't make satire more ridiculous than reality anymore, and I've a strong suspicion the Bee is having the same problem.)

Long before that; try George Washington in 1758.

You should say "Great; now that we've identified this important underlying assumption, why don't guys like you and what can be done about that?" I mean, come on, somebody knocked up Honey Boo Boo's mom the old fashioned way multiple times. Even Hillary Clinton found a husband.

Nah; his fashion sense pretty well kills the swagger. You haven't been here long; there are people here I'm sure will argue with God if anything turns out to not be exactly as they're sure it is. Personally, I'd say we have our orders, and arguing about whether they're written on fair trade organic hemp paper or not is only a distraction from devoting ourselves fully to following them.

You've clearly never seen me after 36 hours awake. Two competing wills is just a start.

Sneak into a mid singles activity. After a couple hours of that you'll be dragging his butt down to Vegas for a drive through wedding.

Nobody can at first, but if you work hard, then by green belt you should be able to throw any untrained person pretty easily.

Transsexual Nazi Tuvan throat singers? So, a bunch of noobs. Got it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electroconvulsive_therapy One machine should be able to kick out enough juice for 3-5 people. One friend has the policy that if you bring up politics in his dojo you will get thrown hard by the nearest person or people capable of it. Maybe you could try something similar.

Not a credible one.

They do? I was raised Methodist and I don't think any of us ever read those outside the bathroom. They even come in different sizes depending on whether you have the whole toilet tank lid to keep them on or if you keep the spare TP rolls up there too. Honestly, I think their real purpose is to showcase some of the worst Christian artwork in history. The cover art is amazingly bad most of the time.

No more than her unwillingness to change for him. It's a two way street.

Dude's just having a dry spell. Granted, it's a lifelong dry spell so far, but still, there's no need to push him into a coming out party.

Well, I don't see a lot of incompatibility between SBC BF&M and LDS beliefs, to the extent of causing problems in a marriage if both are willing to fully respect each other's beliefs. Please, for the sake of anyone with actual taste who may come into your life at any point, seek professional help. In that case, I could suggest an ancient ritual that involves a very small concrete or metal storm cellar and about $300 worth of the loudest firecrackers you can find. It may not undo existing damage, but it should at least shut out the demon chants. Bleeding from the ears means it's working. (Though how you avoid that from listening to them in the first place is still a mystery to me.)

You're a little behind the times: I've heard that exact desire expressed by teens more than once over the last few years.

Regardless of anything else, Trump did exactly what anyone else should do in a religious ceremony not precisely matching their own faith; respectfully participate to the extent that you're comfortable with and avoid disrupting any other part. Calling him out for that is tacky, to say the very least.

Well, I was thinking there might be some hope for him until I ran across that mention of Hillsong. I guess we could look into bulk discounts on Clozaril. 😝

Ok, that sort of narrows it down in basically the same way that saying "I'm on the ground" narrows down your street address. Baptist ranges from SBC churches that wouldn't be caught dead drinking or dancing (not that they wouldn't do those things, mind you; they just wouldn't be caught doing them) to Primitive Baptists who have beer at church dances. If you can be a bit more specific, that might help.

Before or after the operation?

More unpopular opinion: it's the Achy Breaky Heart of LDS music, and it's long past due for folks to notice that there are over 300 other hymns, many of which haven't seen the light of day in years.

Interestingly, I have at least three coats in the car right now, but they're all for my own preparation. London Fog raincoat - not a trenchcoat (that's hanging on my closet door) but one of the above-the-knee length unbelted coats mainly for keeping dry, though I do have the warm liner in at the moment since the mornings have been fairly chilly. Medium weight leather jacket - excellent at blocking cold wind, and less formal than the London Fog. Not as warm or water repellent as my trenchcoat, but at least in theory we should have some warning if there's going to be a late hard freeze so I can switch coats around. Work jacket - got it free from the last job, and it now serves as my "beater" jacket that I can wear into the shop at work without worrying that it'll get filthy. Also the only jacket I own that specifically states it's machine washable. Doubles as shirt protection for roadside repairs and such. There's probably also a sweatshirt under the passenger seat that can be yet another layer if it's that cold. Obviously in a pinch, they can be shared; I'm not going to leave someone to freeze while I've got two spares unless they're really annoying. As for 72 hour kits, I consider them mostly a comfort item, beyond things like a spare knife, butane lighter, emergency blanket and a couple of bottles of water. I don't absolutely need to eat in 72 hours, though it wouldn't be fun fasting that long even if I wasn't moving around much. I do, however, need to stay warm, which generally includes staying (or getting) dry, not get too warm, and stay hydrated. My emergency kits generally focus on first aid and things that will be of use in a situation going well beyond 72 hours. That said, I do usually include a couple of "fast burn" energy items and some more filling foods in the car kits, where bulk and weight isn't an issue. If I have to leave the car, I can reconfigure the kit before leaving.

Yeah, but he meant Hasselhoff.

It didn't. PreChristian Egyptians used bread mold on infected wounds. Fleming just figured out why.

I thought we established they gave up on Bednarbot. The struggle to make it both accurate and realistic was beyond even Disney. Besides, I think they're really going to take on a Ninja Warrior course, with the losers having to convert to the winners' faith.
