You can go in field service with a witness nobody wants to work with.
You can play the piano version of Kingdom songs and have everybody sing along.
If you are married you can have sex with your mate but only the kind that is allowable under the strict guidelines of the GB...er FDS...the WTBTS... the publishing company.
You can watch one of the videos the society produced and eat popcorn while watching.
You can have a "gathering" at someone's home or at the park and .... no that's not fun.
You get to unreasonably hold to the idea that the Bible is the inerrant Word of God. You can be a wild alcoholic and justify it with the inerrant word of God. You can beat your kids into total submission creating free labor in your household and justify it with the inerrant Word of God. You can make your wife a slave both sexually and physically and justify it with the inerrant word of God. You can become prominent in a large group of people without any brain power whatsoever. You can have charity when needed, personal accomplishment, authority, slaves, regular sex and adoring fans all for simply keeping quiet and speaking up, but only when told.

At the boasting session, I can hope for the speaker to screw up, not show up, or that the whole thing be snowed out. Sometimes you get lucky and the session ends early. Waiting for it, I could watch the first part of Wheel of Fortune until the witlesses show their ugly faces.
In field circus, I could hope to sit in the car while it is cold and rainy out, waiting as the odd person out on a call. I could fog up the windows and watch them waste time trying to clear them. Or, watching as they drive right past a street or house that I see right away, and keep my big mouth shut as they waste gas and time hunting. Or, having them drive me all the way across town for a call out of the territory, only to have them not at home. I could also hope to get into a territory with a substantial Spanish population and hope for those doors where all the mailboxes have Spanish names on them so I could skip them.
Laying loud stinky farts around the elder body, and ask them hows it going?
We did a masquerade party, and a scavenger hunt. Never got in trouble for that.

A walk over the hills on new years day seemed to be a highlight for many.
Pioneer parties, where after a special month of effort, all the pioneers get invited, what a lovely clique that is.
Weddings always seem to be an odd one. Half having fun, the other half complaining the music's too loud.
