Redmond

A nice affluent town in Washington state. The demographics are probably 60 white and 40% Asian, and black people are virtually nonexistent here. Redmond is about 15 miles east of Seattle by 520, and is home to Microsoft and Nintendo of America. I live there, it’s a nice place to raise a family and very safe, but like any suburban town it’s quite boring, and housing is expensive as fuck now. Popular hangouts are Redmond town center (RTC) and the Bella Botega regal movie theater, though everybody really wants to go to Bellevue or Seattle to do fun shit. Overall it’s a nice, safe, and wealthy town that is way better than shitty Sammamish and kirkland.

Get the Redmond mug.

rechoirment

A bu**s**t stipulation dat you must meet if you wish to look (and sound!) like a total jacka** while sinning --- er, SINGing --- in front of a group of a**h**e conscience-deprived hypocrites in a congregation every Sunday.

It really broils my bacon that some of the most socially-insensitive and self-centered folks (think, the foolishly-proud/stubborn Grangerfords and Shepherdsons in The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, and the devious and habitually-lightfingered Macklins in The Forgotten Door) are members of church choral-groups. Many of them do this to selfishly feel better about themselves, since they arrogantly view themselves as being "closer to God and His divine forgiveness and salvation" for their rampant misbehavior in the world outside the church, rather than their actually going to those whom they've wronged and admitting it and trying to correct/alleviate whatever injustices they committed, plus they think it will look better for them in the eyes of other townspeople --- and possibly even the law --- if they are in the church choir, since many people --- especially blindly-trusting religion-steeped ones --- tend to automatically associate church-singers with piety and purity. Pathetic! I think that one of the most vital rechoirments that a church would have for someone's becoming a singing-group member would be that he should first settle any and all matters that are weighing on his conscience (and any complaints that others have against him, as well) beforehand. Otherwise, people's seeing those unfeeling jerks in the choir just breeds resentment and makes the church look bad, almost as if they condone misbehavior like that.
