"i'll smelt my oscars if the academy awards doesn't let zelensky speak!".

wow, his virtue is so good i can't look at it directly, because it would blind me, lol.. yep, it's this year's oscar's ceremony.. prepare for next-level celebrity virtue signalling .... https://www.theguardian.com/film/2022/mar/27/sean-penn-oscars-zelenskiy-ukraine .

Ok, I've changed my mind on this. I thought he was just a little slow to get the punchline of this rather obvious joke... but now..

I think he was hard-core white-knighting here. Why? Well, I wasn't aware of the sheer emasculation his wife has imposed on him. An open marriage, sleeping around unapologetically, and ever since then he's been absolutely confused. I think he's been trying to regain that masculinity since, yet unsure what really to do.

It doesn't seem staged now that I look at his face, and Rock's reaction. But I'm still not 100% sure. Hell, maybe a week from now they will both come out and sat, "See Jussie - that's how it's done". And they would be right.

No one should listen to these people. Most are uneducated - they either dropped out of school or only did drama, and does anyone remember who did drama class at school? Never the bright kids ...

I re-watched the incident. Smith appears to laugh at the joke, looking up at the stage. His wife gets it and rolls her eyes. He continues to laugh. It takes a while for it to sink in... hence your point above.

Orrrrrr it was #fake #setup

My wife showed me the video this morning after saying, "The Oscars seem have really gone to shit."

I watched. I said, "Looks fake."

It's not an organization, it's just a Polish sign that says "humanitarian relief".

Billions to die at Armageddon?

by BoogerMan in

not according to this verse:.

(mark 3:28, 29) truly i say to you that all things will be forgiven the sons of men, no matter what sins they commit and what blasphemies they speak.

but whoever blasphemes against the holy spirit has no forgiveness forever but is guilty of everlasting sin.”.

@BoogerMan:

That verse there in Mark... that only applies to the 144K. All the rest of us are free game. For us, we can be BBQ for the animals for just about anything.

@RonW : It's just getting started. Each time you post Patreon stats, it's "defamation" and it is subject to a 3000 EU civil penalty.

You can proactively pay, of course.

Miniimizing 'Punishment' - marrying a non-JW

by doasthouwilt in

i’d like to marry my best friend of 30+ years, turned ‘secret’ girlfriend of 1 ½ years who is a jehovah’s witness, born into it, baptized and an active ‘pioneer’.

our marriage would happen prior to letting any of her jw friends and cohorts know that we are together.

once married she may simply come forward and ‘admit’ or we may wait until it’s found out – one way or the other, the reason for this marriage is not customary – i am hoping that by doing so she can avoid being ‘marked’ or possibly ‘disfellowshipped’ once our relationship is no longer a secret and due to our already being married at that point, there can be no notion from society elders about her ending the relationship.

MeanMrMustard

@doasthouwilt - It still doesn't make sense. The fact pattern implies she is not being honest with you and not being honest with herself.

Also, any attempt to find a way around this is futile. There is absolutely no possible way, none, zero, zip, goose-egg, nada, that you will quote a scripture, a policy, whatever - to prevent a judicial committee from being formed and DFing your significant other. You will never - NEVER - out-legal the WTB&TS, EVER! Given the fact pattern, it's done.

But also, given the fact pattern, she shouldn't even be trying to stay. Before you spoke of wisdom. I assumed she was an impulsive 20 year old, manipulating her way into your resources, going back to the WT when it made social or financial sense for her (no principles) because the current fact pattern is something you would expect a 20 year old to be exhibiting. That's why people think you are trolling. Not because it's "outrageous" or "upsetting". Rather, it's a tad unbelievable.

My only conclusion, if we grant you are 100% truthful, is that she is not being honest with you and not being honest with herself. And it may be the case that she intends to be honest with you, but she can't because she can't quite stop deceiving herself.

I don't see how trolling has anything to do with my posting...

Ok, fair enough. Let me just say this- it wouldn't be the first time someone came here with wild stories just get a rise out of people. So, at least for me, I'm going to be skeptical.

Yes, I did think I should add that, to paint a better picture.

Ok.

You misunderstood what I meant by 'for reasons unrelated'. The reason she was DF'd was in no way related to the moving in with her BF - that move-in happened afterward, she was DF'd for a vice.

Oh ok. So she's a smoker... or liked a little pot here and there?

Her last marriage lasted just shy of 30 years (far more than 4) and she's been interested in no one else since, which has been nearly a decade, until I came along and decided it was high-time that I did get together with one of the dearest and closest people to me - that's a reality we share and very much agree on.

Ohhhhkkkk. So that changes the dynamic quite a bit. So she's been married (basically) 30 years. You said in your very first sentence she is your close friend for over 30 years ("30+"), but your girlfriend for about 1.5 years, and she has not been interested in anyone for about a decade after her previous marriage (last paragraph). Assuming she got married young, that puts her about 60 years old, and you've been her close friend from about age 30 (around 10 years into her previous marriage) when she wasn't a JW because she was DFed for "a vice". We're you also a close and dear friend with her previous husband?

But just to be clear, we're dealing with a 60+ year old woman, and I assume you are around the same age, a full time pioneer, living with a worldly man, having great sex. In fact you go on to say that "she truly IS a 'naughty', worldly girl, and excels at it".

This doesnt make sense - you keep talking about imposed beliefs. Either she believes it HERSELF or not. There nobody pointing a gun at her head. She could leave tomorrow, a simple choice. And yet if she really believes the JW ideology, her concern would not be to figure out a way to dodge consequences. She would run to the elders and away from you.

So what gives?

No, she was specifically scared back into it. I have, through the years, talked to her about it, about why she persists in it. Fear is a giant factor.

Fear of what? It doesn't seem to be anything the religion is teaching... and you say: "...in all the years I've known her - not in the least, she is incredibly social and surrounded." So it not social fear.

In short: She's going to be DFed. No way to avoid it, except to live a lie and hide for rest of her life. But she shouldn't care, based on what you've said. She should just throw up her hands and leave.

But she does care. So she's living a lie anyway, except with you. Either you are trolling us, or she is trolling you.
