JW Chef Refuses to Cook Black Pudding

by cofty in

sainsbury's has been forced to apologise after its jehovah's witness chef refused to serve a customer black pudding with his full english breakfast.alan mackay was stunned when he was told he could not enjoy the staple, made up of animal fat, blood and oatmeal, with his meal at the branch in arnold, nottingham.after receiving his incomplete dish the former police officer was told the black pudding would not be served because it was against the religious beliefs of the chef to do so....

I'm offended by people who eat bacon because bacon has red & white stripes.

..and this has nothing to do with Where's Wally..

Did any of us ever enjoy meetings?

by stephanie61092 in

this is a legitimate question.

did any of us ever find real joy in being at the meetings?

did any of us ever finish a meeting and think "i feel so enriched"?

snugglebunny

I regard attending meetings like going skiing. Both are uncomfortable but the apres ski makes it more bearable..

Chelmsford is an Asbestos Dump

by Slidin Fast in

the dubsters in the uk are being taken for such a ride.. on one side they have prime land and property to sell in north london worth many millions of uk pounds.. on the other they have bought a contaminated site used for years of illegal dumping.

one of the main contaminants is asbestos.

it will take volunteer labour months simply to remove the toxic material.

snugglebunny

I'm sure JW's will cope asbestos they can.

so my hubby has been on a bit of a roll about the jdubs, we were talking a lot about them & he said the buzz word he hate's the most is "worldly" why?

because he say's "with that one word they have condemned (according to their believes) a person as being worthy of nothing but death.

".

What kind of person was Nathan H. Knorr?

by Hecce in

we have several examples in the forum showing that president knorr was not a loving and caring person; one that impressed me was the one about the elderly bethelite that was put out on the streets until his death due to a disagreement with knorr.

i bring to your attention an incident that happened in the country of honduras back in the 50s, it has to do with immoral conduct by a branch overseer and his subsequent disfellowshiping.

i am not critical of the end result of his conduct but rather the salacious and detailed report of this matter putting in the open the details for the whole world to see.

snugglebunny

I also remember reading that Knorr was obsessive and uptight in his attitudes to sex and the like, even giving each new set of bethel recruits instructions on how to use the bathroom.

Is this where Knorr introduced the use of cake tongs when taking a pee?

You Are All Pieces of Garbage

by berrygerry in

although tomo's human hotdogs was as low as an alleged human could verbally go, tomo's fear-mongering was not an official video.. i'm wagering that the feb 2016 video will be pulled or adjusted.. what do you think, trash?.

Was that Marmite or Vegemite that he was putting on the bread?

Either way, it's really yummy if you add spread a layer of mashed avocado on top as well.

which ever country you come from, if you are a football fan you know of the f.a cup.

because the f.a cup is the oldest and most prestigious cup competition in the world.

or at least that's the way it was when i was a kid.. now this wonderful competition has been cheapened to a non event.

snugglebunny

Oh yes..when little amateur club Hereford found themselves drawn against the mighty Newcastle United professionals - and beat them at their tiny ground!

Queued for Processing ....

by cofty in

if a new topic hangs for ages with spinning icon at "queued for processing " should you give up and post a new copy of the thread or will the eventually result in two threads?.

if it has cleared the first tick "uploading post" can you safely click away from the page?.

servers seem a bit slow recently?.

Simon--can you stick another shilling in the meter ?

How do you feel about the expression "The Truth"?

by stuckinarut2 in

it's amazing how the expression "the truth" has become such an ingrained term used by witnesses.. "we have 'the truth'".

"is he 'in the truth'?".

most here have found out so many facts about the organisation, and felt the effects of being "gut-punched" as we realised these facts.. so how do you feel about the expression "the truth" now?.

snugglebunny

I was aware that the expression was self-hypnotising and dropped it immediately I left.

Favourite Comedy Quotes

by LoveUniHateExams in

i wanted to post a serious, profound quote in stillin's thread but my mind went blank and i'm pretty crap with serious quotes anyway, so i put a jokey quote from the red dwarf computer holly: .

it's better to have loved and lost than to have listened to an album by olivia newton-john.. when a bemused lister asks why, holly replies "because anything's better than listening to an album by olivia newton-john!".

this got me thinking, what are everyone's favourite comedy quotes?.
