Utah Reforms Blue Laws
Salt Lake Tribune | Submitted by: torchstar
"It just makes it seem less weird here in Utah," said a patron at Piper Down in Salt Lake City. The membership requirement was bizarre to people from outside the state. "When they come here they always gave me shit about the liquor laws here." It had been 40 years since Utah adopted its private club law, requiring patrons to purchase a membership, which usually cost between $20 and $40 a year."

I remember when I was in Utah back in 1989. There was a huge Alcoholics Anonymous meeting at the hotel I was staying at. The Mormon religion forbids alcohol, so naturally, Utah has the highest per capita alcoholism rate in the country. I also met a $2.00 hooker in front of Nordstrom's in Ogden. I declined her offer, because if she thinks she's only worth $2.00, who am I to disagree?

This fucking pisses me off. These magic underwear wearing, Moroni worshiping fiends have been able to get their shit together on this club card requirement issue, but my hometown in Texas can't. It just goes to show you that Southern Baptists really are the fucktards of Christianity.

Stupid mormons. Round them up with muzlums and scientologists, then shoot them all.

Welcome to the 20th century, fuckheads. Maybe in another 100 years they'll make it to the 21st.

How can you tell which house a redneck Mormon Missionary lives in? It's the one with the bicycles up on blocks in the front yard! I wish them cute little missonaries would go 'round nekkid! Joke: The head Cardinal comes into the Pope's office "Holy father I have good news and bad news!" "What's the good news my son?" Jesus has returned and he's on the phone asking to speak with you!" "That's truly wonderful, what's the bad news?" "He's calling from his office in Salt Lake City!"

Yeah, the multiple wife thing would be cool but I don't believe you're allowed to sleep with more than one at a time. Of course that could be Islam.

I dated a "good" mormon chick when I was in H.S. She didn't drink, didn't smoke, didn't curse, went to church weekly, etc. What she did do is put out big time. I would throw a move on her, get her hot and she would be begging for the bone. It was great! She earned her nickname Regina Ragina.

Its so sad, now in Utah you don't need to be a member to get into the bar, but sidecars for drinks are illegal now. So basically you can go in, but you can't drink until you're retarded (on the cheap.) Living in Utah sucks more and more each day.
