Why Mormon Men are So Grumpy

1 -

Because Mormon men believe in the next life,

they pace themselves in this life--

there's plenty of time to have fun...

in the next life!

2 -

Because this life is a test

and tests aren't fun.

3 -

Because this life is meant to endure

and enduring is not fun.

4 -

Because if Mormon men are happy,

their friends and family might think they are too lighthearted

and if their friends and family think they are too lighthearted,

they might start smoking and drinking because of this.

5 -

Because men are that they might have joy

was only meant for those who lived

during Book of Mormon times.

6 -

Because having fun is not as rewarding

as feeling a sense of control over one's environment

by being grumpy.

7 -

Because they are preoccupied with the fact that they cannot sin

and possibly Mormon men would like to sin

if they really had the choice--

or at least this might be their perception.

8 -

Because the idea of having a wife and children

and grandchildren and great-grandchildren and so on,

really does bother them.

9 -

Because they never get what they really want,

which raises the question,

what do they really want?

10 -

Because, for them, being grumpy is so much more fun

than being happy!
