Tired of stealth prosthletizing by the fundies? "Blessed Day" et al?
Edited on Thu May-05-05 01:38 PM by Richardo
Do what your Uncle Richardo does: I sometimes throw a "Praise Allah" into the conversation just for effect.

I usually place it where a "Thank God" would go. ("I finally found my wallet, praise Allah!")

Always fun to check out the reaction. Especially if they KNOW you're not Muslim. :D

Yes, I'm easily amused.

5. Yeah use it, they shouldn't get offended if they don't expect you to.
Although I think most people mean no ill will when they stuff like that, people shouldn't assume everyone wants to have a blessed day.

11. That's it, all I could think of was food stamps
Edited on Thu May-05-05 02:15 PM by uppityperson
too much reading about poverty level people. Edited to add, one of my favorite swear phrases in the past was "jesus in hot tub" but I stopped and now do "rats, rats mice and gerbils" which also gets looks.

23. I'm partial to "Christ on a sidecar!"
Which I actually picked up from my mother, who was a devout catholic (not too devout to use the lord's name in vain, evidently, but devout in her way).

7. Hee hee - good one.
When I lived in Gaithersburg, Maryland, the Arby's Restaurant at the local mall had "Witnessing the King of Kings" print out at the bottom of the receipt. Once when I was there with a friend, she pointed it out to the cashier and said, "Are they talking about Elvis?"

8. "Thanks to the Constitution you will"
I've only had one opportunity to use that line but I'll keep it in my evil liberal repertoire.

20. Religious humor is FUN!
I like to throw in Buddha to the conversation every now and then.

But your suggestion is great, esp. considering all the anti-Muslim feeling.

Praise Allah! Hey, I figure God doesn't mind what name we call him by.
