I remember one on the evils of chewing gum in the Kingdom Hall. Unfortunately, that was the only way I could stay awake . . . .

"Tonights local needs"::::: crap in the toilet,,,,and um,,,,carving dirty words on the seat backs!!!

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah....does it get any better than this???????? hahahaha

We had one on gum chewing. The elder who gave it was a real A-hole. He detailed cars for a living so he really hated gum. Took a KM article out of context to prove his point. He approached and stood at the platform for probably a whole minute chewing a big wad of bubble gum, then took it out of his mouth and stuck it on the podium...to make his point. All of us gum chewers continued as before. It was ridiculous. He should have given a talk on manners...how to dispose of gum properly...chewing with mouth closed, etc...but NO he villified gum in general. All gum was EVIL. Like I said, he was a real A-hole.

We once had a talk about "pork chop" side burns. There was a trend in our hall of the younger brothers wearing thick sideburns. The elder said that any wearing "pork chops" wouldn't be able to assist in privledges. The dumb, followers all had brand new hair cuts by the next meeting....

When I started the uproar in my hall, they gave a local needs talk about the importance of using the Society's literature for research..... and not sociallizing with "worldly" people.

When I got my first tattoo, they gave a whole talk about from the platform. No one else had done it. But suddenly it was a "local" need. They completely singled me out. Everyone knew it was about me. My mom cried.....

I think that was the last meeting I ever went to

We moved to a new congregation and because of the early meetings (7pm on Thurs) and the commute it was impossible to get to the meeting on time. Within the first month the Local Needs talk was on the importance of getting to the meeting on time........What a welcome to the congregation! After that I decided that if I would be late I wouldn't go at all. The next local needs was soon after some teanagers were publicly reproved.......The part was on Oral Sex and why it is pornea......Wonder what those kids were doing???

Our local needs parts were assigned in order. Ministerial Servants were also assigned local needs parts. Most parts were so bland you wondered what the local need was. Most of the Bethelites would just give their Service Talk as the local need when they couldn't come up with something else earlier in the day.

I was visiting a friend in Vermont once and went to special assembly day with him. The Co gave a "needs of the circuit" part on "Incest and Beastiality"...I was new and wondered why !!!!!!!...how scary was this...I looked around as he was giving the talk and noticed some squirming and shifting eyes...upon leaving, I noticed that some looked quite "strange"...

There is only one local needs talk that I can remember. Roughly two weeks or so before the talk, a young sister and brother(in their mid-teens) were publically reproved. I knew what it was they were reproved for as her sister and I were really good friends. The local needs talk was based on something of a sexual topic. The elder giving the talk was very explicit, almost too explicit for those in attendance that night. My wife and I were newly married then and she was fairly new to my hall. Well, this elder who gave the talk started talking about "caressing breasts," "mutual masterbation," and a few other HOT phrases. You could tell the entire hall was very uncomfortable listening to his talk as he kept going on and on. After the talk was over, everyone watched B*****y as she walked out of the hall crying. She was saying to herself quietly as she was walking to the back, "oh my god, oh my god" with her hands covering her face.

After we had left the meeting that night, my wife said, "Wow, I guess you don't want to do anything bad in this hall, huh?" Nope!
