Prayer Rug

This letter came in the mail today.


I wasn’t sure what to expect opening this letter, but the contents were great! Mail order prayer for pretty much anything you want. And a fee isn’t even required. All of the images have high resolution links to them if you wish to read the small print.

First up, is this dude.

They lost me right here. I can’t trust anyone with hair that big.

On the backside of Mr. Bad-hair, we have this lady,

who is also full of poop.

The included letter/form.

And finally! The Prayer Rug! You are suppose to look at this thing until Jesus opens his eyes, then make a prayer.

Prayer Rug

Fine enough, expect that it isn’t really a rug, it is a piece of printed paper. This “rug” wouldn’t last a day in our foyer soaking up the wet from our shoes.

I also don’t like that it is soaked in prayer. I think it may rub off and discolor my socks.

Well. I was going to fill the stuff out, and send it back, but probably won’t. See, my brain kind of rushed in, and took two approaches to the humor, which I don’t think make sense together. And I have standards I need to live up too. But I’ll show my work anyways.

My first idea was to just be simple and fill out the prayer form and send it back. I filled it out, it may or may not be funny. Here is the filled out form.

My other idea was pretend that a child got a hold of the rug, and did child like things to it. Here is the modified rug, along with the child’s note.

Much more clever I though, but considering the drawing doesn’t look very childish, and the handwriting matches the handwriting on the form, these scam artists would be onto me. Remember, I have standards to hold on to.
