  So my mom was telling me that my aunt is going to be hosting a GB member and wife, COs and DO for dinner after their DC this summer.

  I immediately blurt out, "That sounds stressful." Which is met with dead silence. "oh, I mean making sure dinner and the house are perfect, you know..."

  Cringe. I guess I was supposed to say something about what an awesome, amazing privilege that would be. "Those that do to the least of these, my brothers" and all.

  Seriously , though, can you think of anything more stressful as a JW than having a GB member over to your house?

  I would open a can of spaghetti as a side dish with boiled hotdogs and serve it to them on a paper plate.

  I. Like. whathappened. So hilarious! The looks on their faces would be priceless.

  Speaking of these supposedly "selfless" brothers I remember plenty of visits from CO's and their wives. The brothers and sisters would take them out and splurge. They did not get all the jewelry, nice clothes and dining out money from the wacthtower corp, thats for sure.

  The GB and DO's CO's prefer to associate with the wealthy. It is no secret that they want to be showered with gifts and fine things

  yes I can think of something more stressfull. Having the co and wife stay at your house for 3 days of their week with the congregation.

  Can't believe I survived that. NOT my idea.

  I hope your Mum will prepare a meal liberally laced with rat poison for the paedophile and his wife.
