Youth Conference

chanson, April 16, 2007April 16, 2007

The very first thing I heard upon arriving at Youth Conference was a dirty joke.

Somewhere behind me in the long line of kids walking from the buses to the registration tables a boy’s voice said “Why did the condom fly across the room? — because it was pissed-off!” Not very funny, really, but it made me smile to myself. It seemed like a good omen for how the conference would go — hopefully not one hundred percent goodie-goodie. Read the rest of the story ร‚ยป

    It probably isn’t possible. That really is a joke I heard some kid tell when I was at Youth Conference though. I’m not saying everything in this story is taken directly from real life — just the parts that seem too absurd to be made up… ๐Ÿ˜‰
