    Hey, great list, LOL

    I've thought of one.

    How bout if you own & love a cat but don't have fun with a holiday because some people eons ago used to worship a sun god on the same day you would be a JW.

    Or decline military/civilian service but spend countless hours with every new video game killing everyone, as soon as they come out....

    Condemning homosexuality while dancing to suspect lyrics by gay artists at your wedding..........

    nothing funnier than real life - you can't make this stuff up!
