    Heh, I've never been a JW, but I've been here long enough to have acquired a few terms that I don't particularly like. They are, in no particular order:

    - "The organization"

    - "The Truth"

    - "Unbeliever"

    - "Apostate"

    - "Worldly"

    - "Paradise Earth"

    - "The 144 000"

    - "The Faithful and Discreet Slave"

    - "Brothers" and "Sisters"

    Just to name a few.

    I hate how all talks have the same lines in them

    "as we can see"

    "no doubt"

    "jehovah god" (can't they just say god, or just Jehovah?)

    Oh, and after the meeting is over, "that was very encouraging"
