I can only hope that if I am ever in a home, the likes of Stevie won't darken the door!

What I don't get is why they feel the elderly are a safer, less sinful or more polite crowd to minister to. I get this impression that they do this because others are too wordly.

Do they know about the STD rates in homes?

They should meet my grandfather, son of a preacher and hates religion -- he wouldn't let Steve get a word on edgewise. He'd tell dirty jokes to Sarah too.

Apples to Apples?

They had to probably throw away at least half the deck from either not knowing what it was, or because it was inappropriate....

Ruthanne has leggings on under her dress. She's not even 2, do they really think it'd be immodest for people to see her bare legs?

Not quite sure about Apples to Apples. I'd seen it before in various Shupe albums, and from what I've found out it's something to do with ascribing an adjective to a noun, or vice versa... can someone explain it to me please? :)

I... don't care for Cards Against Humanity or Apples to Apples. Every time I've played we either ended up changing the rules (because the actual game is kind of lame) or just got distracted and started flipping cards and making weird matches. I think CAH could be fun with the right group, but if you know the people you play with well, it becomes way too easy and therefore boring.

I don't know how the Maxwells managed to play though. Did Steve go through the deck and remove all references to pop culture, actual people, history that his precious children didn't learn, and anything else that could be offensive? Did they play with the Jr Set? I don't get it. Do the Maxwells get in trouble if they try to make "amusing" matches instead of trying to make the "best" match?

Basically, everyone gets a set of cards in their hand that has various nouns and verbs on it, any thing from: Barack Obama, Harry Potter, Skis, Having Sex, a dumpster. Then one person draws a card from a deck that is usually a descriptive word like "intelligent" Then all the other players choose a card from their hand the think best fits the description. The drawer of said card picks the winner. If you are picked 7 times you win. I like it in small doses.

That really funny about your grandfather. Hate to change the subject but I think Steve started the nursing home church so he & the family could be in charge of the whole service.

I noticed that since I made a comment here about their "Every mom DESERVES" heading on their blog, it has now changed to "Don't you want a peaceful home?"

Hi, Stevie! :dance:

I checked the wayback machine and it said "deserves" up to the most recent save on July 17. So I saved it again, to reflect the change. But it still loads as "deserves" on the wayback machine. So I went back to Titus 2 and it displayed "deserves" for an instant before switching to "peaceful." What kind of lazy coding? :naughty:

I inadvertantly posted this in the other thread and couldn't figure out why it wasn't showing up here, which resulted in some double posts and deleted posts. smh at me

My mom is at a nursing home. Every activity, meal, etc. is planned way on advance. There are always events planned so people don't get bored. No way a nursing home had a game night because the Maxwells asked for one. It was likely the monthly game night and the Maxwells decided to join.

Possibly. I do some part-time work in a nursing home, and there have been times where a pre-planned activity has to be cancelled because of the circumstances of volunteers coming in. Maybe that's what happened and they thought they'd call the Maxwells and see if they can do whatever was similar to it. This can lead to interesting things.......but we'll see. I'd like to think the other church families just didn't want to be photographed, but we'll never know for sure if they were there or not.

The only picture of John is one where you can't see his face (I'm assuming it's John because I don't know any other guy who it could've been. It's the guy in the orange plaid shirt). It's probably so we aren't defrauded by him. :lol:

I've never played Apples to Apples. So, there are adjectives in it?

Sarah, look them over again -- find something to expand beyond "sweet."

Your grandfather sounds awesome!

I used to work in a nursing home. Among our residents was a 93 year old Vegas dancer (she would entertain the night staff with shocking stories of her colourful past), an elderly gentleman who would smuggle in hard liquor, and another elderly gentleman who would amuse himself by wandering the halls in a bathrobe and flash the ladies. It was great times.

Dementia means that many of the elderly lose their inhibitions. Now how much of that is true, and how many of them just use it as an excuse I don't know :think:

Still unless all the residents of that place are incredibly advanced, there must be time for some Maxwells to get a bit of an education about the world :pink-shock:

My grandfather is pretty much blind and has Alzheimer's. He frequently hits on me, not knowing who I am. A quick admonishment from my grandmother usually dredges up some memories, but if I were as innocent as a Maxwell, I would have gained quite an education from his remarks. Given this, and some other comments people have made on this thread, I wonder if perhaps Sarah isn't as "innocent" as we all presume her to be. :lol:

Sorry, Steve, but I had to go there. You know I may be right, and it just kills you, I know it. :D

I'm not sure they see the elderly as better than the rest of us - it's more likely to be the only group that tolerate their silly ministering, probably out of boredom. If I lived in a nursing home I might attend their sessions. You can always make it less dull by playing spot the button on the frumper, or by placing a small bet on how many times Sarah says "fellowship".

I think once you're not a virgin anymore in the Maxwell family, you get to dress without the undershirts if you choose (well, subject to your headship's approval).

Sarah will always have to wear her undershirts. I hate her head band.

I also wonder if any of the "elderly" ever ask her about her marital prospects. Women of that age often are very interested in that kind of thing. I'd love to hear her answer.

The lady on the left... not only is she wearing bright red pants (pants on the card flipping lady, too... sinful casino history, maybe?!) but also a shock pink leather jacket! And the other one has a sleeveless top with a v-neck and no modesty panel or t-shirt... Steve's head must have exploded :music-rockon:

I wonder if the residents were told it was Casino Night and then it turned out to be a bust because it was just the Maxwells with some chaste board games and Bible time? Might explain the, er, bawdy clothing on the older ladies.

I can easily see the residents thought it was Casino Night, showed up for a great party aaannnnndd...it was only the Maxwells (again).

Agree about Casino night!! I wonder if any of the residents left once they realized it was the Maxwell's.

Same here. Thinking "Oh shit, it's that family AGAIN."
