That song...Armageddon
The movie...Armageddon
George W Bush...and his New World Order speech
Everytime I hear somthing about child molesters in the news
Everytime I see a commercial for giving blood
Everytime my daughter mentions getting a pony in Paradise, maybe I should go to bethel so I could put my hand over a cobra's hole and not wait until Paradise!
I shit you not, she genuinely said that, it was about '88 or '89 when microwaves hadn't been around long.
It was stuff like this that really turned me off the dubs, the stupidity to defer their decisions to a 'higher authority' made up of cheese and cracker men
The smell of old burnt coffee (from the assemblies)
Oh yeah, this comment reminds me I have a half pot of fresh coffee made. BRB.
Satan, are you serious about having that version of Knocking On Heaven's Door played to send you off?

Yup, guns and roses at my funeral. I haven't decided the full playlist but Knockin on heaven's door will be played as I am wheeled in

Very cool. I like Bright Eyes by Art Garfunkel for a funeral. It's song they played in the animated movie Watership Down when one of the rabbits was near death.
Death reminds me of the WTBTS.

Nouveau cuisine (remember the miniscule portions dished out by the stingy hair-netted plastic-gloved sisters when they used to serve hot food at assemblies?)

I like that too but I don't want everyone being sad at my funeral. I was going to have barber's 'Adagio for strings' which is a haunting piece of classical music used in Platoon and my fave piece of music, it would definitely be atmospheric. I've decided that at my funeral I want people to celebrate my life and remember the cool stuff, not that I'm not around any more.

Hell that was so many years ago.They only stopped doing this because people would queue up before the prayer so they could get served reasonably quickly. It always tasted of plastic too!
I remember once when my sister lived in VA, I was at an assembly (teenager), and volunteered on the salad line to get out of a couple of talks (had to get ready for the rush, you know.)
I was reprimanded by a babyface MS for putting too much salad in the bowl. I said, well how much? He took the bowl and put in a couple of lettuce leaves, and said, "No more than that!!"
Pfft.
My parents in the 1970's somehow got hold of issues of THE PLAIN TRUTH magazine because it seemed at the time to be a general stroke-book for the Christian faith. But it turned out to be a specific cult led by Armstrong, who turned out to be against other Christians. Every article would SEEM to address current events in a vague way, claiming there were MORE wars, MORE drugs, MORE disasters and this only confirmed "Bible Prophecy". Half the article talked about things in the real world, then the other half twisted it around to some Bible quotes and that the only solution was Jeeeeezuz.
Much like the WATCHTOWER when it talks about the world only to convince you that being "worldly" is bad.
Oh yes, your a lot like me the smell of burnt coffee Yuck at them boring assemblies. I now feel like this movie character that has been mutated from assoiation with the Borg:
