Very interesting info Terry thanks. I see the Cathy Newman interview style as a symptom rather than the disease. She's "slogan chanter" shallow understanding of the issues and just regurgitates popular "slogans" as a form of denouncement to humiliate. And anyone with a more balanced considered viewpoint is the enemy. Objectivity is non existent in the world of the slogan chanter.

How do you deal with "toppers"? [one upmanship]

when in conversion, you sometimes get carried away and the talk becomes all about you.. then, you remember you're in a conversation, say you're sorry, and allow the other person to talk.

she goes on about what's happening in her life, you listen and ask some questions.

she tells you more and then shifts the dialogue back to you.

It depends how well you know the other person. Is the one-sidedness actually just social awkwardness because of unfamiliarity and not wanting to appear too "forward"? Or is it the person's baseline way of speaking? If after getting to know someone and finding out it is their baseline I tend to limit association with them as it's too draining, but I will try to let the person know what they're doing first as there could be a chance it's just serial thoughtlessness on their part. If they "get it" great if they don't I will just let nature take it's course as people who are like this usually don't like having their conversation style pointed out to them and the relationship dries up all on it's own.
I do think the internet has changed and is changing the way people communicate online and in person. I also found most if not all JWs are like this, you could not have a to and fro conversation with them. The conversation style of JWs was to talk about or talk at but not talk to. While they talked about other people behind their backs they somehow considered it rude to talk face to face with the person about the very things that they talked behind their backs about even if the person themselves brought it up. It was weird. I'm still trying to figure out how to communicate after leaving the borg.
Why were you asking CoCo are you just curious or is it work related?

This video proves either the GB are totally nucking futs or their teachings turn people into stupid, crazed closet sex addicts with zero self-control that need to be counselled on how to sleep correctly to avoid erections.
I think the former.

Hell ! Good point ttdtt.
If the innocent pillows are copping a pounding in the bedrooms at bethel what the hell is going on in the bakery with all those warm pies and buns?
What other inanimate objects are being abused and sexually harrassed at bethel?

Is it breeding act or breading act?
One is sexual intercourse the other is covering something in flour then egg then breadcrumbs for frying.

WT should offer this excellent resource "training" video to other institutions to show their newbies.
I'm sure the police cadets, the military, uni students and many others would just love being spoken down to like they're retarded animals with a sex addiction that can't be left alone for a half a second without humping something. Nooooo that approach isn't insulting at all.
Keep up the good work WT your five minutes of fame could come yet - as a laughing stock.
