just as annoying as my sensitivity to religious memes and my inability to say no to anyone.

Sounds like you need to undergo reverse rejection therapy. Ask some people at the next meetup to ask you for things/favors/anything, and your goal is to say 'no' to all of them. May be everyone can be a target and all of you can rotate.

I suggested "Learning to say 'No'" as an addition to Swimmer963's goal list at one of our first meetups. This sounds like a good way to implement it (should she so desire, of course).

Ok. Next meetup (that I can make it to), let's do it!
