I'm looking for my brothers in Christ to help me.

To you, I extend a most cheerful

servants of the

You, Larry dear, have to take precedence over random strangers who think this is a "dating site".
With fondest wishes,

Oh, how I do agree with you, dear Sister Joanna, and I thank you for raising this. I had not posted a welcoming message as early I do usually, but I have been watching this thread and waiting for an appropriate time to respond. And, now, seems to be that time. Goodness, I did not find you or our beloved Sister Basilissa to be harsh -- merely informative -- and I hope that Mr. King will be accepting of this. We do have our standards here, as I'm sure everybody can see, and whilst dating agencies might be a dime a dozen online, there is only one
part of the interwebs which is

Now, then, my darling Great-Grandbaby Brother Larry: I do hope that you do not truly think of our blessed Sisters Joanna and Basilissa as being "petty". Heavens to Betsy! Since I have given our sisters much-needed support here, especially that from the perspective of an elderly
lady
of substantial means, I would hope that my words are not, also, taken to be "petty". Gracious me, we do have to be careful, you know; especially with online situations. But, you can always confide in me and let me know if you think that Joanna, Basilissa and I are really "petty", or if that was just a careless slip of the tongue, and one that you regret deeply. That reminds me: as I was dusting the epergnes this morning, a "For Larry" tag fell from one of the sterling silver ones. When I retrieved it and put it back in its place, I was reminded of where this shall be finding its way some day, and of how much you will enjoy having it -- should you still wish to have it.
