Is anyone else accused of being in a cult???

[Hermit]

I forget what my 'passion du jour' was at the time but my wife said, "I think you love that more than me". I replied, "That's silly. You really shouldn't have to think about which one I love more". She smiled and walked away and I didn't even have to lie to her.

We are way too big and global to be classified as a cult. Definitely qualify as a religion.

We are the Mormons of Beer. Spread the word brothers and sisters.

yes, but for other reasons.

That'd be like saying that BMC is superior to craft brew. Amirite???

Lots of people have called me a cult. Lots of people never use their spellchecker either.

I just find this absolutlely humorous. SWMBO has asserted that I have joined a "cult" by becoming obsessed with home brewing. Apparently she is not alone in this- I have two friends who also started home brewing at roughly the same time and thier wives also accused them of being in a cult. Now the funny thing is, is that all 3 of these women came to the conclusion without talking to the others!

If you believe this, I have some buckets of condensed steam for sale on craigslist you should check out.

Never been accused of being in a cult for my brewing. For being a Unitarian on the other hand...

Congratulations lextasy. You resurrected a 1.5 year old thread just to be an a$$. Keep up the good work.

Aw cut him some slack. He just wanted to bust out with the bucket of steam joke. You see, the bucket of steam is like something that it's not because there is water where you thought there would be some other kind of steam.. you know, like condensed steam. But it's not. It's just water.

I wish I were clever, now I'm just sad. Sad because I really wanted to have a bucket of steam... or something. What was I talking about again? Hey, how did I get inside? I thought I was outside. Did I mention I'm not outside? That's because I'm inside. Inside the CULT!!!! :rockin:

I personally think it is hilarious to "resurrect" the "cult thread"...

 

[edmanster]

<chant singing voice> Relax, Don't Worry, Have a Hoooomebrewwwwww...

Ever since I read this earlier I've been chanting this to a doors song... Instead of "hello I love you won't you tell me your name" it's been "relax don't worry drink a hooomebrewwwww" ... WTF... This is a cult...lol..

Does she think you're the only one that makes beer by a full moon after sacrificing a pre-pubescent goat? Have you shown her the official brewer's costume?

off topic --- that image from highlander?

We need a symbol and a secret handshake for elders...

Nah. Just a stock image i came across. Kinda Monty Python-ish...

To be a cult, it should embody beliefs shared by the members.

Secret handshake.

 

[birvine]

I've been know to listen to The Cult while brewing....

 

[Scooby_Brew]

Secret handshake.

The Home Brew Secret Handshake symbolizes pouring of a pint from a kegerator.
It's a two-hand (both left and right hand) fist bump.

1. Bump the left fists in the position like you were holding a beer tap handle. At the same time bump your right fists in the lower position, like if you were holding a pint glass underneath the tap.
2. Slowly move your upper left fists to the 90* angle like you were pouring a pint.
3. Bump your lower right fists again like you were saying "cheers" with your pint glasses.

A picture tutorial of the Secret Home Brewer's Two-Fist Bump are coming soon. Unfortunately right now I can't find a big enough geeky loser like me to pose to the pictures with me.
