Finally Gave My First Anti-Witness After 11 Years
by new light inhello one and all.. the local jws had a booth set up at my university today and something just came over me.
i went to a computer, found a list of failed prophecies, printed and stapled it, and walked over to the middle aged woman and the 10-ish years old girl.
the woman said "if you are interested in anything, take it for free.

The Hapless Householder
by new light inthe stupid helpless householder is a classic jw archetype.
look at any example of an official jw presentation: the householder is frequently good-hearted, but mystified and disappointed by world events.
the helpless householder loves the bible, but has been mislead by the evil clergy and worldly attitudes.

Do you believe that we are living in the last days, and why?
by new light init has been a long time.. thanks to jw.org, i was reading some jw material (what does the bible teach i believe).
it was the first time reading a "book study" book in many years and i was blown away by the controlling, cultish writing.
this question especially struck me as manipulative: do you believe that we are living in the last days, and why?.

Would you pay $600 to see The Stones?
by littlerockguy ini can't believe the prices of concert tickets these days.
the rolling stones is starting their tour this year in los angeles tonight and some of the floor tickets are as high as $600!!!
they were in little rock back around 2005 or 2006 and the most expensive ticket back then for their show was $300.

Vengeance Dad Meme--I think I want to do some JW-based ones...
by sd-7 ini was just reading some random memes and came across this one.
it's truly insane, but maybe my sense of humor is such that i laughed rather hard at quite a few of the ones using this photo.
i was thinking, how could i adapt this one to jws?

I Saw 2 Hispanic Witnesses On My Street This Morning & They Looked Afraid Of Me
by minimus inthey had book bags strapped to their shoulders.
they watched me as i turned my car around and i think they might have thought that i was going to clip them.
the younger 20 something year old man, raised his hand to acknowledge me as if to say, "hi and thanks for not hitting us".. they continued their s l o w "pioneer shuffle" and i went my merry way..

Did you go out door to door after you knew you were finished.
by GeneM ini did for a year.
i falsified reports, had fake rv's, told groups i was meeting up with other groups and went home just to show a presense.
i wasn't fading though, because of my situation i had to play like everything was fine.

OK folks, do you know your southern language?
by jam inwhen i served where the need is great, i wrote down some.
of the most amazing phrase that people say in the south.. straight to the point.. a few that i found.
guess what is being said.. 1) as easy as sliding off a greasy log backward.. 2)busy as a stump-tailed cow in fly time.. 3)either fish or cut bait.. 4)even a blind hog finds an acorn now and then.. 5)happy as a dead pig in the sunshine.
