Demotivator Caption Winner

Here’s the winner for the Demotivator Caption!  BTW, there was another caption that was submitted anonymously which read: “Cal Football: No matter how much you pump it up, it always deflates”, which came in a close 3rd place in the polls.  This past Thanksgiving Retreat, I was notified that that was submitted by a brother from UT!  I am not a football fan, so I personally found it pretty funny that it was submitted by a Gracepoint Austin bro.  Not sure what Pastor Will thinks about that, though..  Nice.

English Patient: A Solution to Our Economic Crisis

submitted by Mark

"My 7th grade teacher was so scary that no one dared to go out, even when the bell rang.  We didn't have any recessions."

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Let's give thanks to God and appreciate everything that He's given us, including our ability to laugh.  What would life be if we didn't have this odd ability to find life hilarious?

Pronunciation Confusion

Setting: Two sisters goofing around, and one scares the other pretending to hit her.  The scared sister falls over.

Friend1: Oh my gosh!  I didn't hit her at all!  My feast was so far away!

Friend2: You mean your "fist".

Friend1: Yeah, that's what I meant.

Sister F: Umm.. what's the difference?

Thank you Erickson for the submission of the personal cam video of Steve and Suzanne's dance. I've re-edited the video, which is found here.

Happy Thanksgiving Celebration!

Hello disgracepoint readers,

Since we're having Thanksgiving Celebration today where you will be exposed to more disgraceful acts than you care to witness, we will not be posting anything for this day.  We would probably need a few days of rest to recover emotionally from TC.

Literal Understanding: Les Mis

One of the Gracepoint kids was listening to a Les Mis song, and it came to the line where it says: "Just for stealing a mouthful of bread!"

And she exclaims, "Gross!  Why he steal someone's bread when it's in his mouth?"

English Patient: Eye Doctor

Setting: Sister Y goes to an optomologist and fills out a form, which asks for the reason for her visit..  And this is what she writes:

"Short-sightedness"

Vegetarian Smokies

submitted by Tracy

Setting: At Gracepoint SD, they were preparing the lil' smokies for the post Bible-study bonfire.

Brother R: Hey, I bought some vegetarian smokies, so don't mix the two packages, okay?

Sister: I don't see any vegetarian ones...

Brother R: It's right there.  (points to bag)

Sister: But that bag says it's turkey smokies.

Brother R: Yeah, so set that aside for vegetarians.

Sister: (pause) But turkey is meat.

Brother R: [silence]

Blasphemous Career

Sister Y: So, Brother W, what do you do at your job?

Brother W: I work at a solar company...

Sister Y: So you make solar panels?

Brother W: Yeah, we do that, but also work on the entire system from batteries to wiring and things... So we set up the entire solar system.

Sister Y: (quite serious) What? Only God makes solar systems!!


NOTE: Sister Y claimed later that she was just joking, and that she was just making fun of Brother W's awkward expression "solar system".  It only goes to show you the prejudice against English Patients, who can't even say clever word puns without being misunderstood.  I believe Sister Y.

Difficulties of Spelling

Sister H: Do you know how to spell 'cat'?
Child: C-A-T?
Sister H: Good! Ok how about 'mat'?
Child: M-A-T?
Sister H: Good! How about 'pat'?
Child: hmmm...
Sister H: What makes the 'puh' sound?
Child: A?
Sister H: No...
Child: C?
Sister H: No...
Child: 6?

Sister Y Strikes Again

submitted by Grace

Friend1: Today, I saw a girl with a British accent come into the store, and when she realized that the price she had to pay was higher than the price listed, I heard her mutter "Americans" under her breath.

Friend2: Yeah, because in England, the sales tax is included in the listed price.

Sister Y: In China, there is NO SUCH THING as tax..  (after a short pause, softly) Americans.

English Patient: Goosebumps

Sister K: Oh my gosh, it's so cold.  I have chickenpox all over my skin.

Friend: Umm.. I think you meant to say "goosebumps".

Moving Boxes

  Setting : A Slack message goes out regarding moving boxes -- "For the smaller boxes, let's try to fit them into our trunks of car...
