To be more fitting of an apostolic and to appear more sober, I have changed my pic on my avatar.

A few months ago, I tried talking to an eldely woman and she would not even acknowledge that I was speaking to her. All I can do is ignore the fact that she was so rude. I have no scandals in my life. I've never given her any reason to treat me this way. I wish I had asked her, "What is your problem with me"?...Funny thing is that I was complimenting someone in her family. What gives - do you think? Yes, she is an elderly "Pentecostal" woman and I don't think I have ever seen her smile in the 5 to 10 years I have known her. That's a long time not to smile!

Eh...note that in her case the other women did not know her from a former Standard keeper.

I too have seen this in regard to local Apostolics. It's interesting to say the least.
My personal take on this borrows from Rush Limbaugh...he always says that liberals don't have a sense of humor. That is my view of good UC Apostolics....no sense of humor. Just as when Rush says something tic and they go nuts...same with a good UC....we may be just having fun***but fun is NOT allowed!!

Excellent example. I notice the exact same "closed mindedness" and total lack of any sense of humor among Ultra cons as I do the loony left.
Also as Rush says, they are so fun to tweak! Just look at how a COUPLE here fly off the handle so easily (and no doubt loose half a night sleep) by some random utterance of yours truly!
