10 Ways to Piss off a Pagan


1. Ask them if they are Satan worshippers.

2. Rearrange their altar so it will look neat.

3. Blow out their altar candle if it is still day light.

4. Pick up their gems for a closer look.

5. Sharpen their dull blackhandled knife.

6. Witness to them about the "true religion".

7. Untie the knots in their cord.

8. Take hold of their jewelry for a closer look.

9. Play card games with their Tarot cards.

10. Ask them if they are Satan worshippers.


I found this at the Cafepress, and it's hilarious. I can relate to some of these... And you?

Ha... Yes.
I can't imagine someone coming in and touching either of my altars!

I would be infuriated. And the satan worship is the one I hear the most! VERY silly!

Those are funny though!

Not to mention the one about eating/abusing children! As if we could ever harm our future!

Oh the satan worshipping one is so annoying isn't it? Considering we don't believe in the idea of satan which to most people is unthinkable, it's very frustrating! Perhaps they would find that even more constroversional, LOL.

I have a list that's for the slightly more gothy witches of stereotyping:

top ten ways to annoy a witch

1. borrow their eyeliner, and not return it.
2. snicker when a chunky witch goes skyclad
3.step into their circle and ask them what their doing.
4.ask them if they can wiggle their nose like bewitched.
5.Put on your best Judy Garland voice and ask"are you a good witch or a bad witch?"
6.Throw water on them and expect them to melt
7. Take them to church.
8. Turn their pentagram upside down.
9. Cast a cirle deosil.
10. Put fire wood around the maypole.
