the single most annoying thing in the entire universe

"1.    flack
   
crap, or abuse; excess pressure on oneself; burdens or weight added by unecessary trials or psychological pressures"

Not all of us are clueless 12 year olds. Most of the kids in my troop are older teenagers and are extremely mature when they need to be, but can still be fun people. There's only, what? 1 annoying person in my troop.

Well first off, if you're any other religion besides Christian I don't believe you're allowed in.

That's a start.

EDIT: They exclude athiests, agnostics, and homoloveuals.

you must be in a good troup because most boy scouts I've meet are real annoying.

scratch that, absolutely annoying

No, you can be any religion, they have different services for religion at some camps. I just think they don't allow athiests in, but you could probably bypass that by not getting in everyone's face.

This, but partially because they may be mis-guided. In the Civil Air Patrol, a few of my friends really look down on Boy Scouts, its hilarious really. However, when we were laying wreaths for veteran's graves on Christmas, boyscouts were clueless as well. They were:

1. Taking no thought in the event
2. Taking armful of wreaths and just throwing them everywhere (Upside down, backwards, abhrlzht)
3. Stepping on peoples graves by accident
4. Prancing around a national cemetery like idiots

We got there and immediately:
1. Carefully Fixed the stuff they caused
2. Scolded them for walking on graves
3. Saluted every grave.

I think some boyscouts just lack customs and courtesy, and then if one person does something, they all follow along thinking "its so funny."

Well first off, if you're any other religion besides Christian I don't believe you're allowed in.

It's any reli- dang it.

I'm an Athetist Boy Scout, no flack there.

Don't get me wrong, its a great organization, and any thing like that is great for the nation's youth to join. They learn an education and get experiences they may not be abled to receive without them.

Because they don't have cookies

Because Scoutmasters are always Chester the Molester, apparently
