    I hated having to watch how much alcohol I would drink!

    I hated having to explain why I wasn't taking my kids out on Halloween, what was my favorite holiday predub (still is).

    I hated feeling like I had to look for anything that was pagan, so as not to do it. Constantly thinking that way sucks the joy out of "living"!!!

    I hated the fact that we were supposed to go around beating a drum telling everyone we could find that we were JWs or else we'd be guilty of... uh something.. It wasnt good though.

    I dont think I talked religion with anyone at any job for at least 10 years. Its not the place for it.

    Oh I also hated having to worry about hurting everyone elses feelings if I had a beer in front of someone who objected, or listened to music that someone else didnt like. Its nice being able to make your own decisions without worrying about getting grief from some easily offended zombie.

    1. Fatso "elders"

    2. Long peasant dresses

    3. Most of the boring (yawn) speakers

    4. Mushrooms growing out of the rug @ the KH.

    5. People on the podium using incoherent word salad attempting to sound smart.

    6. Retards

    to name a few.

    when I was a kid, missing tv shows on tuesdays and thursday night,

    going to halls with no or ugly chicks

    the way that they would tackle you down to the ground and kick you out if you run up to the stange during the meeting.

    getting hit with a wooden spoon by my mom if I was falling asleep.

    having elders ask me why did I dress all in black.

    always being told that demons were after me

    prefering demons over elders

    I hated feeling like we were SUPPOSED to be better than everyone else.
