Something I've never understood:
Why is "lunch" apparently a dirty word?
At every assembly I've ever attended, there is a break at midday so we can "enjoy our noon meal".
WTF?
Who says "noon meal"?
Why can't you just say "lunch"?
Idiots.

How about a phrase instead of a word?
'You know a tree by it's fruits'
and then
'Look at our fruits'
"Let us stand if we are able to & sing song number..."
Duhhh! Of course! It goes without saying that! How would you be expected to stand if you were not able to???
listen to these--- the friends, the society,the Organization,the field( sounds very cultish), this is the best--unbaptized publisher,faithful slave........... uh we are the slaves. New World, new system.
Like other here, the top loaded language example I loathe is 'the Truth(tm)'.
From my...*ahem*coff coff*...Millions book............
"Family Head"
That really annoys me!
Imagine what some of that stuff sounds like to someone never a jw. (Me, for instance.)
Worldly. Very insulting when you realize just what they mean. Knowing that Flippers jw relatives will look down their noses as me for being worldly, especially after their own "ethically challenged" behavior. I don't know anyone in my worldly circle of family and friends who would pull the kind of crap they do.
Fleshly. Sounds like they are talking with their mouth full of mush.
The truth. Spiritual food. Yuck.
It always creeps me out when religious people use archaic words. I get kind of a nightmarish mental picture of fanatics from past centuries.
