Well, I had the runs from eating too many Cheetos. Does that count?

Yes, I feel a strong pain in my right calf muscle, maybe god is punishing me for not attending ?
No, wait a second that might be from my little nephew kicking me there a couple of days ago......never mind

The consequence for not attending the memorial is DEATH...
Therefore, anyone deliberately staying away from this celebration, on March 29, does well to consider this question: If willful disregard of the ancient Passover was punishable by death, would not a more severe punishment be meted out to one who spurns the Lord’s Evening Meal, trampling on the provision represented by the bread and wine? Surely you will want to accept the invitation to be present for this celebration and, in faith, accept the provision of Jesus’ ransom sacrifice.—Num. 9:13; Heb. 10:26-31. –Watchtower March 15, 1972 page 167
Well I guess I better prearrange my funeral then, because I will Not be attending this year's memorial

IF you believe the Borg line on exactly what the Memorial is, there is absolutely NO reason for any NON anointed to attend. It is entirely for the anointed and there is no mention of observers in the Bible.
It is yet another control mechanism from the Watchtower.
