  I was recently over a relative's house when I heard one of their pioneer dub guest refer to one of her return visits as HBH. I assumed that this was one of those visits where the person chose not to answer the door.

  Has anybody else heard of this term. Is this some new lingo dubs are now using in reference to those who were once interested but now want nothing to do with them. I found it pretty insulting that if you decide you don't want to have anything to do with them quietly, you're unteachable, verbally...you're persecuting.

  I have heard comedians tell jokes where they are lying on the floor. "Mom says, "It's the Jehovah's Witnesses. Hit the floor!"

  Yes, I have heard this term used before. It is a derogatory term to describe people who chose not to answer the door. The JWs believe that they have the right to disturb people in their homes, and that any who simply chose to ignore them are cowardly.

  My mom used to be HBH when the JW's came to the door. Unfortunately, my Dad was home when they came by and he answered the door. You have no idea how much I wish we could have all just stayed HBH.
