Feeling less sorry for Ortiz and O’Donnell than I did at first. I think they must have known what kind of person LE is and they were fine with it. They spent a lot of time with him in lots of places in real life as well as constantly online. They only reluctantly distanced themselves when it was clear he had completely exposed himself for who he really is. If he hadn’t done his live stream they would probably have rallied round LE and condemned Kim. Most of his supporters would have probably stuck with him too. What a monumentally poor decision it was for him to do that livestream, probably fuelled by greed as well as hubris, because he collected thousands of dollars on the livestream, before it sunk in with his viewers what he was actually saying. He made a quick buck but also torpedoed his chances of covering up his actions.

Vintage the sentence (“Police police police police police.”) means: police that police police also police police.
An even better one, if you’re American and can use the word “buffalo” as a verb:
Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo.

Honestly I don’t know whether he will be a good standup or not.
That having been said he’ll be crap.
For when he flounders maybe we should donate worthy jokes. Here are a few of my finest:
Did you know there are only 3 million chickens in the UK? That’s a poultry amount.
Did you hear the latest theory the JFK assassin was from Cornwall? Others are saying that’s just a Cornish patsy.
Did you know that - “Police police police police police.” - is a grammatically correct English sentence? Not funny, but true.
Did you know Jesus had a motorbike? Mind the time he rode into Jerusalem in his Triumph.
How do we know Moses wore a wig? Because sometimes he appeared with Aaron and sometimes without.
Some people say that Satan wears a wig, but there will be hell toupee for whoever started that rumour.

Real Book titles
by punkofnice ini wonder if real book titles should be entitled according to our opinions?.
eg.. plato's republic.
i'd call it: some geezer in a toga mincing around a pond talking idealistic nonsense.

2013 New World Translation
by Jerome56 inon their website in the video "organizational accomplishments" watchtower devotes this segment to praising the superiority of the new world translation.
about half way through, david splane relates the reason for a change in wording from the old 1984 nwt reference bible to the 2013 revised nwt.
he said this was because of the recent discovery of an older manuscript that contained the greek word for overseer that was unavailable when the reference bible was being compiled.

Thanks for the detailed explanation Earnest. 👍
A related, and perhaps more significant change between the 1950 and 2013 versions, was the complete removal of the word “elder” in 1950 (apart from the instances of elders in heaven in Revelation) and its reintroduction in 2013 revision.
It’s ironic that Splane says Jehovah’s Witnesses don’t change the Bible to suit their beliefs because, when the NWT was first released in 1950 Jehovah’s Witnesses had abandoned congregation “elders”, and more specifically “elective elders”, a term and arrangement that Rutherford had undermined as being anti-Theocratic. So when the 1950 NWT uniformly replaced of the word “elder” with the descriptor “older man”, it was reflecting JW practice at the time which had no position of “elder” in the congregations. Jehovah’s Witnesses reintroduced the “elder arrangement” (this time minus democracy) in the 1970s, so it made sense to restore the word “elder” back again in the 2013 revised NWT in favour of the idiosyncratic 1950 NWT rendering “older man”.
For example the 1950 NWT at Titis 1:5 read:
For this reason I left you in Crete, that you might correct the things that were defective and might make appointments of older men in city after city, as I gave you orders.
Whereas the 2013 NWT reads:
I left you in Crete so that you would correct the things that were defective and make appointments of elders in city after city, as I instructed you

The signing the name at the end thing … I think there was a time when the forum allowed you to choose a sign-off name thing for the end of your posts that added automatically, so it might be an echo of that. Some of us used to style ourselves as being of a certain “class” the way that Watchtower had “anointed class”, “John class”, “other sheep class”, and so on. Some would declare themselves of “the evil slave class”, a term Watchtower has since demoted. Or we would make up our own: “slimboyfat of the ‘my Watchtower is always underlined’ class”, and so on.

The 1950 NWT used the Westcott and Hort Greet text that does not contain the word “overseer” in the verse.
The older manuscript that Splane was referring to was probably P72, a papyrus that was discovered in 1952, that includes the word for “overseer” in the text.
The 2013 revision of the NWT used updated Greek texts NA28 and UBS4 that include the word for “overseer” partly on the basis of P72.
