Constant references to the "New System". Enough, the Fu#k already, THERE IS NO NEW SYSTEM, PEOPLE!!!!!!!!! My delusional sister in law is holding off world travel until the New System (here it goes again), when we will freely travel everywhere...

Most Annoying Things That Happen At JW Meetings
by LittleSister intoday i was remembering how angry i used to get at the meetings and all the little irritations that in the end would just make my blood boil these included:.
prayers that go on foreverstudy or wt conductors still taking comments when its clear that the point has been covered 20 times alreadymeetings over running by more than 5 minsmy favourite was this one elder who would play guess the point i am thinking of.
he would keep rephrasing the question from the wt until someone would bring up the point he was thinking of.

Jen, you mentioned you've got the kids. Don't underestimate the emotional power kids hold. Make sure they are taken care of and everything else will fall in its place. Promise!

Getting into Arguments with JW's...
by ForbiddenFruit ini'm trying to fade away, but i sometimes find myself in discussions or arguments with jw family/friends/white haired virgin elders.
now, i usually have them beat on things but i'm not very experienced, so i was thinking if you guys could help me put together a list of completely unanswerable questions to pose to my jw friends/family/elders so they can stop bugging me.
if i keep asking them questions they simply cannot answer, then they might leave them alone.

MadJW, are you trying to siphon off traffic and backlinks for your site's SR rankings?
You seem to be fairly tech savvy - your GB masters are surely frowning upon it.
Don't forget the Holly Spirit may be diming you out as you type/lurk here .

All Aircraft grounded in the UK, France, Holland and Denmark
by llbh inbecause of a large plume of dust being blown to the uk by a volcanic eruption in iceland all aircraft in the uk and beyond have been grounded, no airplanes are flying at all, they will not be flying till tommorow at the earliest , and then maybe not.
apparently the dust can cause engines to stall, which has happened before.. heathrow is the busiest international airport in the world, and second busiest overall, the dislocation of passengers all over the world is massive.. .

There is something else you can throw at them suggest.
Pull out a tape recoreder and state that the session will be recorder for your personal archives. If there are words of encouragement, you can listen to themm over and over, right?
In any event, they can't call it a JC hearing. Taping is a no-no , as youl probably know...
Tell us how they did .

Most status and privilidges were built up by enthusiastic ass-kissing of the powers that be.
Umm.. Wrong...They are selected and directed by the Holy Spirit..

Tons and tons of Elders letters.
by callitquits76 ini have tons of elders letters which were part of a website about 7 years ago and if my memory proves correct it was taken down due to bullying by the society.. i was wondering if these letters were still out there somewhere, because if not i'll upload them.
they are all in catergories.
might be useful.

Ex JW wiki
by mindmelda ini don't know if there is one, but we need our own version of wiki...i'll start, and you all can add to it if you want.. elder: a guy who has nothing better to do with his life when he's not being a janitor, middle management or a construction worker than pick on you so he can polish the wts's apple.. ministerial servant: guy who wants to be an elder so he can pick on people, because he's tired of mostly just brown-nosing the elders.. pioneer: person who volunteers most of the time they should be out getting a better paying job harassing people with wts literature so jehovah will love them more and so that the rest of the congregation will want to be part of their spiritually elitest clique.. temporary pioneer: someone who can't quite give enough time to be a pioneer because they have a mortgage, kids and a decent job, so they guilt themselves into playing pioneer once or twice a year so they can get one more step up in the jehovah's witnesses caste system.. publisher: low man on the spiritual totem pole who can barely make time to get ten hours a month because he wants to retire someday, but he does it anyway so that the elders won't come by and "encourage" him with a visit that involves making him feel like crap for not being a pioneer.. fader: someone who sneaks away from the wts while the getting is good but does it in such a way that they may not have to experience shunning.. disfellowshipped: shunning, what the wts does to people who dare to tell them where to get off or who quit believing or following their insane rules.. disassociated: people who don't wait for the wts to shun them before they tell them where to get off.. elderette: wife of a janitor who thinks she can assume the role of elder when her husband isn't doing what she tells him to do to encourage the flock...see:wifely submission.. wifely submission: a myth perpetrated by jehovah's witnesses that makes men believe that their wives have to respect them even when they're being stupid or nasty, and largely ignored by many married female witnesses who know better.. three fold cord: unfortunately not a description of a mildly kinky sexual act, but believing that jehovah is the third party in your marriage..okay, maybe that is a little kinky after all.. .

Proper Food at the Proper Time: A term coined by the Jehovah's Witnesses to trick their members into believing that they have been spoon-fed some kind of special privileged knowledge, unavailable to the masses. In reality, this is a really high fat and cholesterol laden fast-food spiritual diet designed to kill any psychologically pre-programmed survival mechanism and put the minds of said members into a harsh, chemically-imbalanced bath of cognitive dissonance.
[Note: edited to add]
Privileges: Undesireble tasks performed on a voluntary basis. Examples include: carrying microphones up adnd down isles in a three-piece suit, sweeping and vacuuming meeting rooms in tight uncomfortable full evening gown, serving food in blistering heat packed in said three-piece suits, playing parking lot attendant (with a flash light, of course) in a three-piece suit...well you get the idea...
