Mormon pill poppers feature on CNN

Post by _Polygamy-Porter »

Happy valley?

Out of all 50 states, Utah ranks eighth in the number of prescription drugs overdose deaths, according to Susannah Burt with the state's Division of Substance Abuse and Mental Health. And, despite a dip in 2008, the number of pill-related deaths in Utah over the past decade has increased by 400%, according to Burt.

And with pussy.

In Hungarian, it is rhyming better. Our word is "pina". Translate it with google...

Not sure that counts as strictly a Utah thing, everyone has a problem with pussy, every man and most women, they have doctors for just that alone.

I've never have any problem with it (or with them). May I say, I am lucky.

Pills, pussy and porn. Tremendous. And I thought I was the only one. Sort of like when I found out about masturbation from my professor at UofU. Up to that time I thought I did my secret deed in the dark and was cursed because of it. Then I found out that 95% of all boys masturbate and the other 5% lie.

My mother drank only caffeine free soda but popped prozac like candies from a pez dispenser.

A good friend was excommunicated because he went to bed with his future wife and refused to feel sorry about it, while his wife, who had broken up his marriage a year earlier by seducing a missionary, "repented" and stayed active.

The third part of this equation, porn? Well, that is my business, and none of yours. lol

LDS substitute prescription pill abuse for alcohol and other soothing substances, like marijuana. Prohibition failed for a reason. Everyone needs a break once in a while from the grind of life. If not a toke, or a drink, then a Prozac. So long as a physician prescribes it (and gets to bill an insurance company, Medicare or Medicaid for doing so), then its wrong, to self-medicate that is. There needs to be at least two money transactions involved to get the substance for it to be okay with the LDS Church--if just one transaction, that between the vendor and consumer, is involved it's bad.

As long as you'll share the dirty details and act contrite to a bishop/SP, you can have extra sex once in a while. If you realize that's part of the biological experience and won't subject yourself to pleading for mercy of a bishop/SP, then you're an adulterer that must be ex-communicated. (Unless of course, you were one an early LDS prophet or apostle, or in their favor--then they'd sanction you getting extra tail, calling it The Principle.) You can also divorce your spouse that perhaps is frigid, and remarry to get more sex--but, make sure you take the pre-emptive strike within your local LDS community of castigating the spouse you are divorcing before she might beat you to the punch and herself win in the court of local LDS opinion.

Extra tail....and call it a principle. You have to admire their pluck.

(I just tried to say "pluck" holding my fingers at the corners of my mouth. It works better saying "puck")
