How To Annoy Wiccans


1. Preach to them about the "True Religion".

2. Borrow their eyeliner and then don't give it back.

3. Snicker when the fat ones go skyclad.

4. Be considerate. Arrange their Altar so it looks neater.

5. Clean their "tools."

6. Untie the knots in their cords.

7. If they mention Magick, ask them to explain... you never understood that dumb card game...

8. Step into that drawn circle and ask them what their doing.

9. Sharpen that dull knife of theirs.

10. Claim to be a non-Wiccan witch.

11. Ask if they can wriggle their nose like in Bewitched.

12. Put on your best Judy Garland voice and ask "Are you a good witch, or a bad witch?"

13. Throw water on them and expect them to melt.

20. Tell the goddess to put up or shut up during the invocation.

21. Ask if they can do those things like in that movie...what was it?... oh yeah, "The Craft!"

22. When they start talking about "the Goddess" start chanting things in Ouranian barbaric or Enochian. Explain later that you have a subconsciously wired bullshit-cut-off switch.

23. See if they know any Hebrew attributions for, say, Tarot. Then ask them why they know.

24. Ask them who Gerald Gardner was. Ask them which degree rites they've been through. Ask them why they haven't, if it's part of the authentic Celtic tradition. Duck, and remind them about the "an' it harm none" bit.

26. Scream "KALI YUGA!" when they invoke the Goddess.

31. Ask them to recommend a good book on the subject of Wicca. When they respond, repeat that you wanted a good book on Wicca.

32. When one tells you that s/he is a Witch, tell them not to be so hard on themselves.

33. Explain the difference between 'skyclad' and 'houseclad';

34. Remind them the moon has four phases, not three;

35. Men - wear amber and jet.

40. Point out that you can't meaningfully be a Kabbalist unless you're Jewish. No, wait, that's for annoying Hermeticists...

41. Ask "You're not going to turn me into a frog are you?"

42. Put fire wood around the maypole.

43. When they tell you they're a Wiccan, nod and say, "Oh, ok, so you worship Satan, right?" When they get upset and try to explain that they're not Satanists, they're Wiccans, say, "Did Satan tell you to say that?" As they get more upset, ask them if they're going to sic their Satanist friends on you.

44. When they paint their nails, ask if them if they are tuning Goth. When they say no, ask them if their goddess likes them to be pretty.
