Totally despised the Ministry School. People were so stressed out and nervous, and it showed. The Sister's talks were so fake and so was most of the congrats afterwards...

It is a tie between the Service Meeting and the Watchtower Study.

The service meeting
And the School meeting. Ohw how it Annoyed me that we women, some way better public speakers that the brothers, had to talk to another woman so that we would not grieve the male-chauvinistic pig-paul.

Favorite Theocratic Ministry School (really felt like I was learning something useful)
2nd Favorite Bookstudy (more personal)
3rd Favorite Service Meeting (samller parts and not too long)
4th Favorite public Talk (45 minutes of being talked at - bearable if a good speaker)
Least Favorite Watchtower (canned and scripted answers - some long winded answers by eldesr wives)

[sarcasm on] I just can't believe all you ungrateful wretches out there trashing the TMS. Where else would you all have gone to hone all those public speaking skills had it not been for jee-whore-vah's whoreganization providing yet another theo-crack-tic activity at the proper time. [sarcasm off]

Definitely the WT study. There would be a countdown going on in my head----21 more paragraphs, 20 more paragraphs, etc., until it was finally over. Did every congregation have at least two long-winded commenters that slowed everything down?? I did that same countdown at the book study, but it wasn't nearly as bad. Looking at my best friend's brother helped pass the time. (He was hot).

There was NOTHING WORSE than having certain elders ALWAYS going overtime.

The public talk. I don't sit still well and listening to the same person for almost 1 hour speak on a topic I had heard all my life was torture.

I must confess, I cannot tell a lie . . .
I HATED ALL OF THEM EQUALLY
Like Dinah, I used to do the countdown, that "one hour" was always stretched to include another 30 minutes ! ! !
In the 60's we used to get an intermission on Sunday, which just meant you got home later !!
