    "...so, clearly then...." After every scripture read or point made.

    "house over house" When walking door to door and we split up to cover more territory(get done quicker)

    "headquarters" As when a visiting speaker from Bethel was in town, they would always refer to him as coming from "headquarters". I always wanted to ask if he was from heaven.

    "Brothers and sisters, please meet me in (insert scripture)"

    An elder in a former congregation I was in would always use that phrase; I felt like we had to all walk up to the stage and read over his shoulder

    Francois said:

    Wasn't Bro xzy talk so inspiring, I really APPRECIATED that..."

    Everyone always "appreciates" stuff: I really appreciated that comment; I appreciated that demonstration. Well, I appreciate getting a bonus at work, but this year it ain't gonna happen!

    Another JW phrase: "eagerly anticipating"

    They are always "eagerly anticipating" everything: the next talk on the assembly, the next magazine, the next CO visit, Armageddon (that's a really big "eagerly anticipating"

    Acsot, you and I must think a bit alike! You've made some other posts that I agree with too.

    I've always hated "happifying", "appreciated", and "ones". Especially "ones"! That drives me nuts! I always made a point of NEVER saying it in talks.

    "Bees that were molested". Man is that a riot or what?? Every time we sing that, my wife and I just start laughing! We can't help it!

    Pepper, that really cracks me up! "we offer this prayer through our reigning winger dinger, Jesus Christ. Amen."
