Sister Wants to Know if I Watched Saturday

My sister, for whom I hold great affection and with whom I rarely discuss religion just texted me to see if I watched Saturday's conference sessions. She wrote that Uck-dorff's talk reminded her of me.

I do not have the desire to go into his talk. Anyone want to help me out here?

Just respond, "No. Really not my thing."

+1. No. Such a beautiful word. So under utilized. Holds so much power when used purely with no explanation. It leaves nothing to grasp on to;nothing to cling to. Mystery trails it. No?

"Would you trust a car salesman who told you to only listen to what he had to say about a car and to whatever you do, don't go online and see what other sources were saying because the internet can't be trusted?"

A mormon I know locally asked me if I had watched any of it.

"I'd rather have my toenails pulled out one at a time by tweezers," I said.

He laughed. Then said, "Yeah, it was kinda boring." :)

I already informed her that if it had anything to do with lost family members returning to the fold that she shouldn't hold her breath. I was just wondering if anyone knows of specifics.

If someone asked me I would reply: "Why would I watch any of GC? I am not a member and not interested. Besides, there are too many other things to do that are fun and enjoyable."

Tell her that you missed the talks because you were busy online trying to order a Ponderize t-shirt before they sold out.

So many good replies. Hard to pick one. Maybe the one about mattress surfing.
