The Motel 6 of Heaven....

Ilyka and the boyfriend have a theological debate....

" "What happens," my boyfriend wants to know, "if you leave the Mormon church? What's supposed to happen to you when you die?"

"I think it depends. Like if I had a real testimony of the church, and then I left it, that's very bad, and I think in that case I go to something they call Outer Darkness, which is like hell. But I don't think I really ever got around to getting a testimony. I never quite advanced to the rank of True Believer, you know? So I think the worst I could possibly get is the lowest rung of Mormon heaven. It's like the Motel 6 of heavens."

"So no jacuzzi."

"No."

"Probably no room service, either."

"Definitely not."

"But you still get free HBO."

"See? That's what I'm saying. How bad is that, really? They're going to have to come up with a grimmer vision than Motel 6 to scare me back into three hours of church on Sunday."

Heh. I guess they'll have to take a page from Matt and Trey, then.

Ha! I'd actually never seen that South Park before. I love that they gave Hell's coordinator a British accent--lends a Pythonesque air of absurdity to the whole things.

Nearly everyone's site I visit has at least one "YouTube" video per week. It's annoying. I block most images anyway, but I still have to suffer through flash animation. My question: How do I block flashplayer?
