“I am ironing/cooking for my husband."
Her story inspired others to share why they stopped going to certain churches. One peep @mstamaar told how her friend invited her to a church service but told her to bring white plates. The tweep says that she thought they'd be using the utensils to eat, but they had to break them and "curse" their enemies. Teresa says she refused to break if you weren't so hard to buy. She said:
"Bazophula dinner sets zabo. [They will break their own dinner sets]".
In another hilarious tale, a man said he stopped attending his church because his pastor was spotted at KFC while you're supposed to be fasting. That isn't continued to pile on stories and others amused by the sayings people have gone through.

@Mihlalij19 commented:
"Ewe ne...churches have turned into cults."
