  @dune- nope, no exjw connection that i am aware of. The original "script" is pretty old, predating the internet i believe. You can google it and find it all over. I think it was originally attributed to a pastor of some sort but that didnt make a lot of sense to me. In any event its been around for a while but they guys filmed it as you see in that video. There have been others to film it as well but that one by "nimpsy" is just so well done i cant even watch anyone elses. A small bit of casting humor: the original script had the taller man, the bald one, written as woman named mary. the way he plays it still refersnces the original female gender making the parts referring to the bibles view of homosexuality even more ironic and funny.

  Also just want to throw a node to OTWO for that one. He was the one who first posted it (that i saw anyway).

  @cognac- that is EXACTLY how they do it. And thats if your leaving on good terms. One of my friends was sent home on not so good terms.... He was escorted to his to room and allowed to pack a carry on bag. He was escorted out of the building and handed a bus ticket home. The rest of his poesrions were packed and sent later.

  Lol your age is showing..... Kids today have their rituals just like kids of every generation. They wait up late until the new album hits for download. They still listen to the songs 1000 times to get the lyrics down. They share headphones (one side each) and play music for each other.... Young crush/love hasn't changed, only the means its shared :)

  by my time cd's were replacing cassetts rapidly but i do remember my first gf loaning me a tape so i could copy it. It was a specal feeling and every generation will have those type of moments and strong attachments to technology related moments

  Any funny stories of when a"brother" giving a talk, said something "funny" or "questionable", and didn't even realize it?

  by Dunedain in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  there were always all types of speakers in the org.

  myself, growing up a "witness", must have heard all types of talks, and given by all manner of speakers, especially on sundays, when almost every week we would get a "visiting" brother giving the public talk.. sometimes, you would have a "great" speaker, all fluent and animated.

  other times we would get a comical speaker, one who would maybe purposelly get a few laughs outta the audience.

  Some of these are pretty damn funny to me on a saturday morning 😂

  I'll add one:

  at a district convention a guy (im refusing to use the term brother anymore, along with the desert gods name) is giving a talk attempting to praise all the women in organization and highlight that they have abilities and skills that can benefit the congregation because, you know, dubs have to actually be told this..... He builds to a creshendo in his best district convention 'im making a special point by being extra loud voice' and yells:

  "BROTHERS! SISTERS ARE A RESOURCE! TAP THAT RESOURCE!!!! TAP IT!"

  there was huge snicker from most of the 6,000 people in the audience (along with a few disapproving groans )

  for those outside the greater metropolitan washington DC area who dont understand the reference, in this area "tapping" a woman is a very common slang reference to having sex with a woman...

  A friend txt me almost immediately and said "first good thing I heard all day" 😂😂
