    Luckily the Dubs in my KH were pretty much grounded in reality, since a very large fraction of them hadn't been born into the Truth, so the programming hadn't seeped in to the psychotic levels you get in some really hardcore, Nth generation Dubs.

    That witnesses, regardless of age, need a chaperone when a male and a female are together in ones house. My 51 year old father-in-law use to ask us to come over and be a chaperone when he had his lady friend over, when his 16 year old son couldn't be there to chaperone. SAY WHAT?? Two adults can't watch themselves? This only seemed to apply at night time, when obviously if it is dark outside and you're alone with someone, the demons will come in and make you have sex, or something like that.

    unless, of course, you're into that sort of thing.

    Also, one witness friend of hers went on vacation to Florida and came back with Florida and Disney land buttons on his hat and she told him to take them off because it resembled "patriotism."

    Telling people that Elvis was dead.

    Apparently it was taking sides in a worldly debate.
