Stuff Christians Like: #390. The 13 things you don't want to hear on a mission trip.

This is pretty good comedy:

1. "Quick, quick, quick, which snakes are the poisonous ones?"
2. "I know, I know, but I've always wanted to see what it was like to drive on the other side of the road and I didn't expect that to happen."
3. "Do you mind carrying this through customs for me?"
4. "Do you know the Swahili for 'I dropped my souvenir machete on my foot?' Because I don't, and I did."
5. "I don't own a tankini."
6. "It's so hot here. I mean I know we're in Africa, in the summer, in the desert, but I didn't expect it to be this hot."
7. "It's so cold here and no I don't want to wear that mission trip coat. I don't like the color. "
8. "Does anyone know how to fix a flat tire/put out an engine fire/completely rebuild a 1987 VW Vanagon?"
9. "Has anyone seen my passport?"
10. "I think it would be a cool sign of Christian brotherhood if we all didn't shave/bath with soap/brush our teeth while we're here."
11. "Sure, bug spray is nice, but the jumping spiders just consider that a condiment, so save it. "
12. "This time it is love. No really, this time it is love."
13. "I think I sprained my ankle."
