I know why you are here.
by compound complex ini was expecting you, but not so early in the day.. i saw you walk up to my neighbor fred's house last week while i was out getting the newspaper, once again tossed into the bushes by a careless newspaper boy.
today, it's the usual routine of rising at dawn, fetching the paper from the bushes -- where else?
-- and settling into my comfy, tattered wing back with the first of several cups of coffee.

Phases of Mental Extraction
by freemindfade inin only the short time i have been no longer lurking but also posting, i have discovered some people with situations and reactions very similar to mine.
i guess there are different ways people get out, some do something and are outright shunned, then they may find ttatt and stay out.
but there may be more and more like me, who are 100% mentally out, but for the reason of not losing spouse and family fade.

Well put. The all or nothing attitude is something I am still working on. It is freeing to know you have plenty of time.
I hope youwill be able to plan a successful fade.

wouldn't it make the world a slightly better place?

Negative forum behavior
by Simon inanother good codinghorror blog entry perfectly describes some people's online behaviour and an approach to handling it.
i'll post part of it below but to summarize, these tend to be behaviours that don't violate any specific rules as such as the people doing it try to carefully skate just up to the line but they are nevertheless disruptive and we're not going to tolerate them on this site.
if you are here to do these things then this isn't the site for you - move along, find someplace else on the internet to inhabit.. hate is easy to recognize.

Lets pretend jw's disappeared
by atheist_R_stupid inand joined your ranks.... this means...youre talking about a people, that currently are pushing no sex till marriage.
that would end and join into the messages you currently push regarding youths and sex.
that would be sex, with condoms.

I'm glad my children don't have to grow up being afraid of cupcakes
by Ilovebirthdays inyesterday, i brought a batch of cupcakes to my son's school.
in passing them out, i started to give one to one of the children, who was a jw.
he immediately started freaking out and screaming "no thank you" over and over.

This reminded me of an incident when I was 13 or so.
On our way to our Assembly, we stopped at my nonJW 's house for a couple of days to visit. Some how they discovered that it was my sister's birthday that day.
When we arrived, they greeted us with a lit birthday cake and preceded to sing happy birthday.
We were frozen in shock. We had no clue how to handle it. My Aunt was beaming with pleasure anticipating our delighted reaction to their surprise.
My mom was always pretty cool about things. We gave her a "now what?" look.
She smiled graciously and thanked them for their thoughtfulness. We had our first birthday cake ever. But I remember that paralyzing feeling when we saw that cake. Mom later explained to them about birthdays but she told us there was no reason to waste the cake..lol. like I said a cool mom.

LisaRose: the first thing I thought of was a bEthel/watchtower farm model.
it would be considered a privilege to be invited to live there. The whole purpose would be to continue the kingdom work. The main r&f jws would not invited to live there... just a big country sized Bethel.
Maybe they would turn it into a JW tourist destination. They would have all of their major trainings there. They could broadcast from there to all the KH of the world.
Make it exclusive and a privilege to be earned.
