Mormon Missionaries are the New Black
Perhaps you remember Brandon Malan and Graham Larson, the stylish Mormon missionaries who brightened The Stranger’s most recent “Worn Out” fashion issue.
Well, according to Hot Tipper Barak, Malan and Larson’s “Worn Out” appearance has instigated a season of love for Mormon missionaries across Seattle:
I was just walking down the street in the U District and ran into two missionaries. I asked how they felt about the missionaries in the fashion issue and they laughed and said it was great—that people have been more excited to see them at the door because of the issue and that they’d even been invited into people’s houses just to see the photo of the “Worn Out” missionaries posted on the fridge, because “they thought our friends were so cute.”
Thank you, Barak, for sharing this sweet story, and congrats to the adored-for-their-cuteness Mormons…
So you guys are responsible for more Mormons getting into people's houses to preach their bizarre message of Moroni and the Lamanites and the Golden Plates? Wow, that's awesome! I, for one, will continue to cross to the other side of the street whenever I see those backpack-wearing, nametag-adorned weirdos heading my way.
