If two elders showed up at your front door (page 3)

This was done as a Weekend Poll a couple of years back i think.

I'm actually expecting this soon.... My answer would be..... "Would you accept someone you initially trusted, but then they lied over and over and over again to you?

Obviously, their own convenience is the only thing that matters.

After a death in our family, we had "friends" show up, dressed and obviously out in service. I thought at the time "Why don't they come over (call first!) on their own time, without getting credit for it?"

The elder in my first post on this thread was asked if he knew (the death) was suicide, to which he replied "No I didn't, but I expected as much."

I'd say "wait a minute please"...go in and call the cops (because we told the elders they couldn't come here anymore) and then talk to them until the cops showed up to escort them off our property.

Or maybe I would just spit on them and kick em in the balls.

Mumsy.... Elders do not have balls!

I would tell them that they had two seconds to leave my property before I called the cops and reported them as trespassers.

I'd play dumb.

"Who did you say you were?"
"I'm Brother Bob @$$wipe and this is Brother Dick Wadd."
"Do I know you? I don't have any brothers by those names. Are you trying to sell something, because I have a sign by the doorbell in case you didn't see it." (Points to large obvious sign)
"You don't remember us? From the Kingdom Hall?? We were really good friends about 10 years ago. We've missed you."
"You haven't seen me for 10 years? And you missed me?? And you couldn't be bothered to phone or visit before now?? That's odd for someone who is supposed to be a friend. But listen, I don't want to waste any of your time, I'm sure you have a lot of other friends to visit besides me. I don't remember either of you, I don't know what you mean by Kingdom Hall. Ever since my car accident, there's just some things that are completely blank for me."
"You had a car accident?"
"Yeah, it was about 3 years ago. You don't remember?? All my friends know about it. Are you sure you're really my friends??"
"Well we're really busy with all the meetings and service and stuff, you know how Jehovah's organization keeps us occupied. By the way, do you believe that the Jehovah appointed the faithful and discreet slave to run the organization??"
"I haven't got a clue what you're talking about. Really. Like I said before, so many things I just draw a blank on since the car accident. It's like none of it ever existed. Poof. Gone. Sayonara. Anyway, I really have some things I need to do. Do you smell that?? I smell burnt toast...." (starts to foam at mouth, eyes roll back in head)
(elders run like hell and never come back)
