Talking about armageddon was the main thing that got people excited, myself included.

Being a jobo was the dullest thing I ever faced in my life. It made beige look psychadelic.

Wake Me Up Before You Jo-Ho
Oh my gosh - JW's are HELL-A HAPPENING! I just travelled into the future and took this footage from a 2020 convention. The evangelical slant has totally taken off!

Let me see.
You can't celebrate holidays
You can't grow a beard
You can't toast
You can't associate with anyone outside of the religion
You have to attend dull boring meetings
You have to prepare for every meeting
You have to prepare for talks/items
You are obligated to go in the ministry each week.
You have to watch your p's and q's at social events with other witnesses
You can't be seen drinking too much alcohol at social gatherings
or
perhaps none at all depending on who is holding the gathering.
Exciting? Eh nope!!

The golden days of the JWs were in the late 60s. They had momentum, excitement, and a real purpose - "stayin alive till 75."
