    the time of the end.

    expressions my mum used like: 'condone' 'totally unsuitable', 'I've marked them'

    expressions my stepdad used like: 'you can do what you like under the umbarella of Jehovah', 'faithful in least faithful in least' followed by a lecture on how stupid we were and no one liked us because we were 'unsuitable associates' and maybe an accidental lob in the face that he would pass off as an accident to our mum.

    'approved associate'

    'accountable to Jehovah'

    don't you want to serve jehovah?

    they all sound so smarmy in my head.

    "Welcome Brothers" (when they mean sisters too)

    "Let it reach our hearts and minds"

    "Be sound in mind"

    "The Dead tract" (The tract actually had a longer title but it was shorten to that phrase)

    "What would Jehovah think?"

    "the dear sisters" when in fact they meant nothing of the kind, this is just a way of patronising and squashing the sisters!

    "spirtualy mature" is another because it was often said about me.... wonder what those dubs would say about my spirtual maturaity now?!?!
