    When I get dressed in a suit, I still have trouble not calling it "meeting clothes" or "meeting shoes."

    I still have an unconscious avoidance of the word "lucky", substituting "fortunate" more often than not.

    There are so many JW expressions, aren't there?......."the PO", "the end", "erring ones", "publishers", head covering", "the baptism questions", "personal study", "apostate"......and so forth. If the average person heard 2 people talking, using these expressions, they'd have no idea what was being talked about......Only a Jehovah's Witness would understand.

    I've made a conscious effort to delete every single one of JW words and think i've succeeded. I've even stopped using words like "comment," "encouraging" (ack!!!), "good association" (ack!) and words JWs have overused ad nauseum.
