“Just as God guided Joseph Smith’s hand
to pull the box containing
the golden plates from the Earth,
so shall you pull this
holy fence post from my yard …”
This is just your yearly reminder that when the two Mormon dorks show up on your doorstep to preach their decaffeinated, alcohol-free brand of Christianity, you can put those virgin muscles to good use and make them do chores around your home.
It’s the service part of their mission.
You might have to hear about Joseph Smith, but your lawn will be mowed and your weeds pulled.
I have done this after my friend’s grandmother told me about how she always does it.
Protip:
Tell them:
“I’d love to hear you out but I have to do yard work (sadface)”
then they will legit volunteer to do it.
