dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in !the_dunk_tank@www.hexbear.net, it's a great comm.

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

i have weird hands, where's my

spoilermormon temple?

[–] GriffithDidNothingWrong@hexbear.net 26 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Its more of a gothic cathedral really. Most of the mormon temples I've seen look like a midwest city capitol building

I believe it's being replaced soon if it hasn't already. By something much more bland of course

I think it's the Mormons' flagship temple in SLC that's pictured.

Ahh. I've never seen it. Is it at least mounted on the back of a giant robot?

on a trip to check out some National Parks, we stopped in SLC. i've been to the Temple Square and wandered around the Momo temple. the vibes are off the charts. i went across the street to buy some stamps from a "Bookstore" and the closest thing i've experienced to it is like Disney World type shit (with how manicured and curated everything is), except the workers BELIEVE Mickey Mouse or Donald Duck is going to walk around the corner at any second and give them all eternal life + omnipotence so long as they act nice and keep faith for the mouse in their hearts.

if anyone ever gets the chance to go inside the Momo Tabernacle, that is the supreme "this is why you need to shut down cults early on" experience. of course, i've never been inside the temple or the inner sanctum obviously. i'm sure that's jacked, but the Tabernacle is like this giant acoustically perfect room where the massive choir does it's thing around this gigantic pipe organ. it literally feels like the whole thing is going to launch into space with you inside it and you'll have to listen to insane choral music delivered by fake plastic smiling faces for eternity as this giant ellipse hurtles into an infinite darkness.

a uniquely american experience not to be missed.
