I'm in Utah right now and I just went to Walmart in Layton to pick up a six-pack. I love the looks on faces as they read my t-shirt. Some laugh, some GASP and reel in horror, and some ask me what the shirt is all about. The checker I had couldn't see the whole shirt so she asked me what it said.
There was at least four people within earshot and at least 3/4 looked like probable Mormons so I answered fairly loudly so they could all hear. "It says, 'I pantomimed my own murder in a Mormon temple and all I got was this lousy t-shirt'. Up until April, 1990 in the Mormon temple endowment ceremony we all had to pantomime slitting our own throats and swear we would never reveal what we did in the temple. [I did the throat slitting motion as I explained this.] Just Google 'Mormon temple penalties' for details. Or, you can go to YouTube channel NewNameNoah and watch hidden camera footage of what they do in Mormon temples now. I filmed it myself with a hidden camera. It's pretty creepy stuff."
She replied, "Well I know that's Michael Ballam," as she pointed at Ballam's face on my shirt. As she handed me my receipt I replied, "Yeah, Michael Ballam used to play the role of Satan in the endowment movie. You can watch the whole movie on my YouTube channel. Have a nice day!"
The checker and two women in line were clearly horrified. I'm not gonna lie, I love doing that.

Seriously, how do Mormons not know who you are?
I am a nevermo and your video was one of the first things I saw when I went down the rabbit hole.

I pretty much always wear this shirt when I fly into or out of Utah. It rarely doesn't result in a fun conversation or two in the airport.
