Message Monks

[jordancpeterson]

So in true form following the great mother of the nuns I'm starting the Message Monks! Now the goal is to get more members then the Message Nuns. We'll have the alumni but I'm not sure if we can have any honorary members. Either your hitched or you ant'! No sitting on the fence fellows! So who's a gonna be in the running? :horseman:

I'm afraid they already have more nuns that there are guy members of the fourms... so unless you are going to get a lot more guys to sign up, I'm afraid you're fighting a losing battle...

[jordancpeterson]

Thanks for the encouraging reply! :p

[HotShot53]

well, if there was a mathematical way to win, I'd be all for it.. but it doesn't make sense to fight a battle you've already lost ;) I'm afraid my practical side is stronger than my dreaming side...

I am NOT married. And I have a shaved head. I think I should qualify to be a monk doncha think?

I had ancestor who was a monk... clearly he wasnt a very devout monk or I wouldn't be alive today.....

Oh yes! Some support! :D

Well, I'm already the Abbot, since I never did quite retire... and since I no longer have a reason to retire, I guess I'll stay as Abbot for a while longer ;)

I like this thread already. Funny post.

This post for the funniest post of the month.

Maybe he was an Emergent Monk?

Count me in.
I'm unmarried, without prospects (i think)... but havn't had a haircut in a while so maybe that means I'm a backslidden monk.
In the confessional "Father please forgive me, I havn't had a haircut in a while... but when overseas your hair is not usualy upmost in your mind"
Although I did see some monks in Germany that had full beards and long hair...

I hardly care about haircuts, it's kinda that this hair gets kinda unmanagable soon, so it won't get a chance to get really long... ;)

What is the point of this "message monk" thingy?

The point is to make jokes, and pretend we are never getting married, even though most of us probably will eventually... and say how horrible girls are, etc etc ;)

[mad_wrapper]

okay count me in as a monk. seems most the girls i know don't even really acknowledge my existence. and i got my hair cut really short :) ask candace (aka dream_orange) so yeah, really short hair and definitely no prospects. sounds like i am a cinch. maybe even for monk of the month. vote for me :yay:

Or perhaps it's just a trying to push away some heart longings for some :confused:

Just Hoooooold off right there. Don't let those nachos overtake you. I never said anything about never getting married. Or that girls are horrible. Joking or not... I wouldn't go that far. I just said I'm not married right now. Lol.

I don't know if he'll make good monk material here.

Yeah, I know... you have to at least be able to pretend to pretend... but unless things have changed recently, he probably can't ;)

[eagleendtime]

secretly guys.

How many of you would love to have a sweetheart, the right one, the missing rib?

Be honest now. There is an all seeing eye watching you!


So if you want a mate, and claim the single forever thing, isn't that being double minded?

How about Monks not by choice. or Just single and in a holding pattern (fact is some of us even lack a airport to land - ooops - maybe on a journey for a safe port)

[HotShot53]

the thing is, when you are in the message monks or message nuns, there is no law against getting married ;) So no-one has to say they never will ;)
