Signed <Poster's Name> - of the <insert 'fed-up and taking no more shit' comment> class.
LOVED this the first time I saw it here. I think it started years before I found JWD. In reading old posts, somewhere in my mind I credit it to LDH, but I cannot be certain.
A spoof of all the classes that the WTS espouses - and yet they claim to have no class distinctions. For those of us attending book studies in the 70's, there were gobs of 'classes' with both typical and antitypical representations and fulfillments.
-Aude.

A McWitness to me is:
A 10 hour a month publisher who sometimes reads his answer directly out of the WT, auxilliary pioneers once a year, cleans the KH when scheduled, but secretly doesn't believe a lot of it. They sometimes forget to wear their Convention badges. He/She probably watches the occasional R rated movie, and might engage in non GB approved intimacies within their marriage.
Edited to add: And 4 of their 10 counted hours of field activity is spent at McDonalds.

Theocrawedgie: The sensation of panty hose migrating to your butt crack after a long day in field circus. Or there is it's close cousin: theocrash: caused by two hot, sweaty thighs rubbing together on a hot summer day when you didn't want to struggle putting pantyhose on for service.

I laughed the first time I heard it called "The Witchtower, Babble/Babel and Crap Society". Sorry, don't know who to credit it with. First heard it on JWD.

I don't know whether any of you are aware of it, but one JW has compiled a theocratese glossary on line giving WT jargon. Many of the entries are quite orthodox, but some are hilarious. Elderette is one he mentions in a negative lite. The site is: http://jehovah.to/glos/index.html
here are some more JWD terms

Another favourite of mine: The world-wide pedophile protection fund, used to refer to WT donations.
Also there are many avatar names, my all time favourite is "dung beatle" a dung beatle rolls up excrement in little balls for future nurishment.

Your list along with your explanations of the terms is quite impressive when you add them all up.
I am sure there are many more out there. I remember them and then I forget them in about three seconds if I don't write them down.
As for your entry for UADNA, I believe you are right. I used to use the term when it was popular. I took it to be a ruse to get WT trolls to believe there was a large clandestine organisation out there encircling them like wolves in the night. I don't think there was any collaboration between those who used the term, one just had to catch on and just use the term and then you enlisted yourself as a member. Perhaps others who used the term could supply their take on the term.
Here is another one I remember if the spelling and my interpetation is right.
Perps...... short for perpretators, applied to pedophiles.
