NOM

I didn't watch. It's just too much of a waste of time listening to them drawl on and on......... so, did the Hosanna Shout save our world yet?

Since you didn't watch, I will summarize it:

Hosanna to the left
Hosanna to the right
Hosanna up
Hosanna down

Shout
Shout
Shout

Yay Hosanna!

Nelson and Holland were able to synchronize their waving while Oaks displayed the dysrhythmic version of the wave.




Gentlemen, you may now wave your undershorts!
Wait... who is the guy with the bikini underwear?

DW asked if I wanted to join them in doing it as she was hurridley searching for Mr. Hankey's to wave around.

My simple reply, "No."

She was clearly not happy with my response. Magic Mr. Hankey waving for no apparent purpose is clearly very important when a profit says we have to do it.

I did, merely to keep the peace. It's just weird, but it cost me nothing to wave my hands about. (I can't remember who likened this to the hokey pokey during the thread, RR maybe?)

Nope. Doing anything in unison (well, other than singing) feels dorky and culty to me.

You put your hankie in
You put your hankie out
You put your hankie in
And then you shake it all about.
You sync with dear old Rusty
And try not to glance around.
That's the Hosanna Shout! (Yes sir!)

I added a little beyonce to my hosanna shout. https://media1.popsugar-assets.com/file ... haking.gif

That's right. Thanks for the memory!!

I didn't take part, but my teenagers rampaged into my office after and said there were several "meme worthy" moments during the shout. The out of sync Oaks was one of them. Made me smile.

I hope that Nelson lives a LONG time and keeps living his prophet life to the fullest. It is such a testimony killer!

This made me giggle so much. Thank you.

Omg! I just watched it and was laughing hysterically. My nevermo partner asked if I was ok. At one point RMN gave Oaks a look, I lost it at that point. lol

Oaks was the 2020 version of the Left Shark.

As they say, the brethren have never been so United as they now are......and this pic proves it.

Mrs. Hagoth wanted to do it so I thought, what the hell, have fun with it. I may have been having a bit too much fun with it and Nelson's double-take of Oaks cracked me up.

We used Kleenex.

I did participate with my wife and daughters. It was the easiest way to comprehend the awkwardness I was seeing on screen. Let's also be clear that the "shout" part was mostly a mild mumble because the Spirit of Boyd Packer remains firmly against outbursts like this. It was unclear what the effect was supposed to be.

It's further unclear what the Solemn Assembly was all about. The Hosanna Shout was easy enough to identify, but the Solemn Assembly seemed virtually transparent other than Nelson announcing that one was going to occur at some point. I think the whole thing was intended to be some kind of cheer to buoy up the spirits of Mormons stuck at home. But most of us would have been stuck at home for General Conference anyway.

Yes. I literally chanted Pay Lay Ale instead.
