    Who has the worst exaggerated story to tell about being a Dub? ex.

    When I was a child we had to sit for fourteen hour assembly days in the hot sun without fans because they were not allowed for the other sheep. We had to take shorthand of every word written in the talks and review our notes for two hours after the convention was over. When the flood came at one convention we stayed in our seats and held our breath till the water went down. We looked up scriptures till our fingers bled and then refused to accept blood to save our lives.
    When I became older I started pioneering at age seven, of course back then you had to get 300 hours a month. Lived on bread and water for twelve years, my home was an old shoe box I found and added on to to sleep in. brought 4000 people into the wt and they make up most of the bethel family now.
    Oh yes, I forgot to mention I am paralyzed from the neck down and blind.

    top that.....

    Top that? Easy. I am a woman, and I was a JW. You do the math.

    I thought this was a real post until I got past reading the first two sentences!
