I felt outta place; a Christian Friday night...
So, tonight, one of my Christian cousins whom I haven't seen in months invites me over to a 'meeting place' that he and his friends go to every Friday night. I decided to check it out cause I'm always down for something different.
I go to the meeting place, actually a well-decked out shed(complete with kitchen/bathroom)in the middle of farm country. I run late and see that everybody there(all in late teens to late twenties) is sitting down, listening intently to a speaker on a little makeshift stage. Since I don't really consider myself religious, all I really heard was: "Jesus this, God that, live your life for God, porn is bad-do not look at it online, try not to cuss, blah, blah, blah... Let's pray. Amen." Applause.
After the speech, which I figured must have gone for maybe an hour and a half(I only caught part of the last half hour), everybody got up and started playing pool or cards or foosball table or just ended up talking to each other. People started drinking... Pepsi(and only Pepsi too). An older guy came in the shed with a bible and started talking to one of the younger guys(who I knew was just recently baptized). The older guy was pointing out passages to the newbie. Christian rock blared in the background. It felt like a cult.
I was so out of place... and all I could focus on was this girl with a big, nice round ass playing pool. Everytime she bent over to shoot, I just stared! Then I started noticing about 95% of the people there had silver rings on(which meant abstinence till marriage)... including the girl with the big ass. There was a couple other nice looking girls there too but they all had silver rings. That was it.
Went up to my silver ring wearing cousin, told him I had to go. "Aren't you having fun?" he asks. I lied and said, "Yeah, but I got somewhere else I got to be." And I left.
Usually my Friday nights are spent on alcohol, clubbin, and/or strip clubs... different strokes for different folks, huh?
