The July 2002 question box : " What should we bear in mind when using cellular telephones and electronic pagers?"
Does the WTS actually expect for us to believe that someone would ask a question beginning with "What should we bear in mind when..."? Seriously, who actually talks or writes like that?
Did any of you use such blatant JW Speak when you were in or did you know anyone that did?

The above thread contained a number of hilarious responses to this weird Question Box article.
funnily enough, my partner now, who used to be a mini servant and very nearly an Elder..still speaks like he just stepped out of an Awake. We all find it really really funny and he takes a lot of flack over it, bless him! its the old "POtato,poTATo" thing......
I say.."copy this tape....
he says..." duplicate the tape"
theres so many I could quote its untrue but you get the point right!
LOLOLOL to this:
...still speaks like he just stepped out of an Awake.
Too funny!
As to Elsewhere's original question as to who uses phrases like, "What should we bear in mind when..."?
Answer: Only older parents or grandparents speaking to their very YOUNG children/grandchildren when trying to teach them something or get them to think/reason out on something.
Unfortunately, I've been away so long I can't remember the JW Speak, so this is giving me some laughs.
Thanks!
