Clever idea -- unfortunately the target audience has a lot of trouble with "sauce for the goose, sauce for the gander" concepts.
Sabio, that's awesome! Now I kind of hope someone knocks on my door so I can try that!
I'm afraid that might be a bit like trying to scare ants away by throwing sugar at them.
I did, long ago, read a post by a guy who had a rather good moment along these lines. He got woken up by knocking early one morning, and since he'd been sleeping naked, he put on a bathrobe, which happened to be black. So when he opened the door, he looked awful -- unshaven, hair in a mess, red-eyed, and wearing only a black robe.
When he saw it was a couple of evangelists, he looked over his shoulder as if talking to someone further inside the house, and yelled, "Hey, Frank! Start the ritual! The sacrifices are here!"
Hey there. I met Tara while on my mission and she told me I should get onto your blog. I was at an 'underground BYU' party yesterday and some people were talking about this video, that was funny. Thanks.
This was hilarious. Very cool blog! I love it.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Cognitive Dissenter!
ReplyDeleteI once stopped some persistent early morning door knockers by coming to the door naked.

ReplyDeleteSomehow, I wonder how many 'got it.'

ReplyDeleteYeah, it looked like no one "got it".
I can't believe he got through the lyrics of the song without a door slam.
ReplyDeleteWay too go!
ReplyDeleteBloody funny. If they'd knocked on my door they wouldn't have needed to continue, because I probably would have been wearing this.

They never came back.
