OMG is too common by far. Like Jeez or Crikey. A more serious one for Christians is to make claims about what God says or does. "God told me to..." Or "the bible says God says..." Or "the bible tells us to give money to...for...".

You shall not take the name of your Lord God in vain.
This one is easy to skip over. Yet there is nothing so serious as misusing someone's name. Just look at how incensed RBB was when I innocently adopted Testero! We invoke the owner of the name when we call. Romeo and Juliet was all about surnames. Scripture says "at the name of Jesus every knee shall bend". When we use the name of God to back us up like in court it gets very serious."I swear by God I am innocent your honour".

“Oh my god” is the most commonly used phrase in porn movies (so I’m told). Are the actors breaking the third commandment?
ReplyDeleteIn that case it would probably be a ten pin strike.
ReplyDelete"Today's blog is written by Robert Testore" you say but then, in the post you say
ReplyDelete"Just look at how insensed (sic) RBB was when I innocently adopted Testero!"
I guess that's what's known as a double whammy. You steal the name and then cannot spell it properly.
"In that case it would probably be a ten pin strike."
I'm changing my name to Robert Prosew.

Bob Powers would suit you better.

I changed the name of the post. Nobody noticed that I had slipped into the protestant numbering. As I continue this very popular series I'll abandon any numbering system!
DeleteNo.

OK Try Bob Orspew then.
DeleteMind you, given your proclivity for spending at music shops, card worship(p)er might suit.
DeleteThanks, Peter McDong.

I might go with The CurMUDguy.

I guess Lower Hutt doesn’t stand for high brow humour.

You have to go passed Upper Hutt for that.
Delete...eventually you arrive at Highest Hutt where all the High Bros live.
