    I was counseled because I wore (faux) suede shoes to the meetings and in service. They weren't blue suede, and I wasn't trying to be Elvis. They were a shade of brown.

    I was couseled for wearing a jacket that was deemed inappropriate for field service. It wasn't the trench-coat style everyone else wore, instead it was kind of styled like a Members Only jacket.

    I was counseled for reading a Bible verse at a door on a Saturday morning. The elder pulled me aside and said that reading the Bible during presentations was reserved for Sundays.

    One brother told me he was counseled because he drove a convertable in field service.

    I got counseled for having a soul patch even though two of our elders did. When I pointed that out, I was told it was OK because they are black and not OK for me because I am white.

    I got counseled when I was about 7 or 8 for wearing a tie that had footballs, baseballs, soccer balls, and basketballs on it.

    I was about 13 and had crappy little facial hair (like any teenager) and the one brother made sure I cut it all off. I don't know how many times he commented on it.

    I was counselled for not keeping my knees together or crossing them at the kingdumb hell.

    Oh and laughing too loudly if the rare humorous thing was said.

    No playing paintball. Shouldn't eat Lucky Charms. Shouldn't watch the movie Matrix Reloaded. Actually, now that I think about it, that last one was probably good advice.

    No Beatles. From a CO "You aren't going to give a public talk with your hair that long are you?" Wasn't even really that long. That CO should see me now!

    I was advised to stop feeding my children before meetings to eliminate the possibility that one of them might vomit and cause the family to miss the meeting.
