ok I have to ask - what is a "Christian hedonist"?

yes! i love answering this question.

ok hedonist means you live for your own pleasure. God commands us to pursue our own joy, "serve the Lord with gladness" and delight yourself in the Lord" and "in His presence is the fullness of joy" and "These things I have spoken to you so that My joy may be in you, and that your joy may be made full"(john 15:11)-one of my favorites now.

so hedonist has a completely different meaning when christian is in front of it. a christian hedonist lives for their own pleasure in God. johh piper made a phrase that honors christian hedonism.

"God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him."

so delight yourself in the Lord, it glorifies Him for you to do so.

22. You know the profound meaning of "WAX ON, WAX OFF " (why was that such a cool line again?!)

It was totally the way he said it; all short and clipped straight from the gut. And who didn't either want to BE Daniel Son or DATE Daniel Son... or sometimes both? I did a mean Crane Kick.

29. You still get the urge to say "NOT " after every sentence. (hahahaha)

I still do. I'm such a geek!

55. You know all the words to Bon Jovi - SHOT THRU THE HEART.
56. You just sang those words to yourself.(didn't you??)

Showing my age on this one cuz I totally just did.

59. You remember when mullets were cool!
60. You had a mullet!

Guilty! Yes, I have the pictures to prove it. And NO! You can't see them! :P

I agree. When I first saw this thing I realized that it was for people who were in elementary school during the 80s instead of jr/high school like me. But a lot of them still applied.

ya it did. man, i really miss those jellies and all my cool phrases. i said all of them, only i never liked "cool beans" for some reason.

guided_by_grace May 13 2005, 15:23:21 UTC
And yes, I liked my jellies too. They were so cheap that they were the only shoes I could buy different colors of to match outfits.

And "cool beans" was a lame phrase IMHO. But if you want a really lame one it is "bitchin!" What was that word supposed to mean anyway? (And if you're too young to identify that one, it was from the Valley Girl craze. And if you're too young to know what Valley Girl is then I'm going to shoot myself RIGHT NOW! :P)

Um, yeah. I think I answered yes to all of those questions except having a mullet. Never quite went that far. However, I did try to to the 2 foot bangs, but my hair was too heavy. I still sing Bon Jovi to myself sometimes. ;P

This pic is from my senior trip. Although it is quite weathered I think you can make out the abundance of hair going on. I swear the hair spray fumes in that room were so thick that if someone had lit a match we would have blown the hotel to kingdom come!

That was the funniest thing. We go all the way to Florida and two rooms down were these guys that lived about 20 minutes from us whom we had never met. We ended up hanging out with them a lot that week then never seeing any of them again. :/
