Get there really early, and park as close to the door as you can, and keep setting off the panic alarm on your keyless entry for your car so the horn honks alot.

Re: I'm going to church tomorrow!
Bring a salt shaker and when the sacramenet tray comes to you, salt it before taking a piece?
Drop the tray of sacrament water?
At the end of some of the hymns, stand up clapping loudly and yell 'encore, encore'.
Go to Elders quorum meeting and ask the EQ pres 'didn't I see you at the magazine shop buying a Penthouse/Hustler magazine yesterday?'
Sit quietly through it for the sake of family peace.

Bring BCspace with you. Ask him to yell "CFR" and "That's not doctrine" anytime he disagrees with a comment, hymm, theme or point in a manual. That should disrupt about everything.
This is probably going too far. Do this only if you really want to be an a**hole.

(Nevo, Jan 23) And the Melchizedek Priesthood may not have been restored until the summer of 1830, several months after the organization of the Church.

That is the most insightful post I've ever seen quoted from Joseph.

Here's what I do. I behave like a good and respectful adult guest, not a fourth grader.

Well, some of the suggestions have been funny, others, not so funny - I'd hope that no matter where I end up relative to the church I'd at least be respectful of things that are considered sacred by it's members, like the sacrament. When I attend my mom's Catholic church, I'd never even dream of acting disrespectfully towards the Eucharist, even though I think transubstantiation is the weirdest thing I've ever heard. But, enough nanny-ing....I'm starting to sound too stern.
If you want to have some real fun, you can do what I do... I sit through sacrament quietly, but when it comes to discussion time in Sunday School or in quorum meetings, I will debate points based on what scriptures say, as opposed to what the class is saying. Or I'll ask a really hard question and watch the members start to do gymnastics when answering. I never bring up so-called 'apostate' perspectives, because I can usually call bull-crap on the discussion as it unfolds.
I dunno, I kinda think that's fun - making people think or explain what it is that they said.
