Tannerism

Tannerism is a religion based on a set of core principles: the mini-dab, poorly formed puns, expert puns, and the Most Holy student teacher in existence. His state of holiness was discovered when one of his students realized a correlation between him and Jesus Christ: they both were present in the Beginning, both came back to teach us important concepts, and both shall come back some day. In Tannerism, there is a holy trinity that consists of A Man Named Zucc, Tanner, and the Amazon Box Man. Since it was formed recently (March 14, 2019), there is not much information currently in the public domain.

(Separate from the Anti-Mormon institution. One of the newly created rules of Tannerism states that all should respect Mormons, and never eat them or their books.)

Oh, yeah, he's recently Converted to Tannerism; that's why he told you the mini-dab is back in style.

turnism 

Turnism is an illness that effects about one in twenty thousand people. A Turnism sufferer has to face the other way when they are feeling awkward or anxious. Turnism sufferers find it very difficult to meet new people or date, as they often turn their back on the other person within seconds of the first meeting. Turnism sufferers cannot look themselves in the eye, and are very uncomfortable around mirrors. Turnism sufferers, like to eat alone, and will take food to a private place, like a toilet cubicle or broom cupboard. Acute symptoms of Turnism, will lead sufferers to turn their IDs back to front in their wallet and even request to face downwards in their coffin upon their death; which typically occurs through a road traffic accident.

"John, what is wrong with your friend; why is he facing the other way?"
"Don't worry Bill, Peter sufferers from Turnism!"

Alex Turnerists 

a religious group where you worship our god and daddy Alex turner whom we love oh so very very much. he is so sexy we love him so much. we show our devotion by staring at pictures of Alex turner and dreaming about him. He is the leader of the Alex Turnerist group, with his followers (the Turnerers) being the legendary Matt Helders, Jamie Cook, Nick O'Malley, and Miles Kane. They are mentioned in the book Cornerstone, which is currently being stored at the Heartbreak Hotel on Last Laugh Lane. That book contains testament 505, which says "All life must be devoted to Alex Turner." We believe that all people look good on the dance floor and that love is a laser quest. We must always keep on our balaclavas and put on our dancing shoes until the sun goes down.
