Gee, I don’t know. What the hell is LDS?

I’ll answer your question with a story:

A client of mine was a former siding salesman. One day, accompanied by a new saleswoman with his company, he called on an elderly couple who, as it turned out were Mormon. In the course of chatting, the new saleswoman said she had gone to BYU and was LDS. Turning to her and thinking she was referring to some type of disability, my client said something like, “Wow, that’s very impressive. You finished fours years of college even though you’re LDS.” The older couple nearly fell on the floor laughing. LDS = Latter Day Saints, a euphemism for Mormons.
