She gave me these for the Sunday School collection plate. I didn't spend them... I just objected to giving money for that junk. My mum asked me if I really didn't want to go. I said no and that was that.
Excellent! I think brazillions of kids would skip that crap if their parents didn't send them off. (And then go back to bed, the bastards!)
