i didn't talk about them for the first 8 years after leaving, then i joined here, being here it's hard not to talk about the bastards, and i do enjoy coming here for the obvious reasons, so, it's a vicious vicious circle, ha ha ha, but i'm not complaining.

Tired? When will you stop talking about Jehovah's Witnesses?
by Joker10 inanybody would agree that talking about jehovah's witnesses over and over, and then over some more can get anybody tired and sick.
except, of course, those who are obsessed over them.
don't you think there will be a point when you won't talk or even mumble about jehovah's witnesses?

Do Your Witness Relatives Want You To Be Happy?
by Englishman inor do they want the world to fall in around your ears so that you might "turn back to jehovah"?.
do they think that if you had less happiness in life you would be driven back?.
my mum once exclaimed very bitterly that i had "landed on my feet" too many times and that i would probably have been back at the kh if things hadn't gone so well in my life.. englishman.

yes, i know that's probably the only real want my mom has in this world, that my brother and i are happy, she wouldn't even hint that we would be happy in 'the truth' because we've gone way too far from that. i often feel a failure in front of my mom because i am not a very happy person, but to me the more i mess up and the more mistakes i make, the more i know i am experiencing real things, not those dictated by others, and i get some good feeling from that, and i think my mom does too.

Any Storytellers in your Family?
by Sunnygal41 inmy mom's dad was a regular cut up..........he took great delight in telling us two girls tall tales just to see our eyes bug out of our heads!
for example, he told us about these cows they called "side hill wampuses" they could stand on the sides of steep hills because two legs on one side of their body were so short, the legs on the other side were regular length.
that way they didn't fall over while eating.

my grandad on my mothers side (her stepfather) used to tell us war stories, a lot of day to day life stuff, the navy got the gravy and the army got beans beans beans! this was in poland, then he was captured and so we got stories about doing hard labour in prisoner of war camps, he used to show us the scars on his hands from breaking rocks, then he would tell us how he and his friend stole a german plane, his friend spoke german so they fooled the german air traffic controllers, and flew to scotland, somehow got there safely then came down into england, met my grandma and lived life out until his death.

Idiotic things only a jw would say
by micheal ina c.o in one of his friday night talks noticed when he was invited for meals at the brothers and sisters homes that everyone has their chairs and sofa's pointed at the direction of the television set and asked why do people do that.
then he went on to strongly suggest that everyone change this and either have their furniture pointed somewhere else or get rid of the television.
what a total moron!!

"it's not that you used bad language that concerns us, it's what you actually said." - my one and only counselling visit at the age of 17 in relation somethng i told a minesterial servants wife she could do.
"we'll pray about for you"
"that's certainly an interesting view"
"you know we want you back" in conjunction with "but you know it's the truth, don't you?"
"do we want to send our love, well, do we? huhhuh" - clap clap clap clap
"jehovah, our loving kind heavenly father... blah blah blah, we would also like to pray for your spirit and guidance for our brothers in burundi and papua new guinnea"
"damn i got a talk tonight!"
"i'm off out on the work"
my all time favourite...

Things your mom said to you to get you to stop doing things............
by Sunnygal41 inif you keep picking your nose, your nostrils will get as big as a horse's!.
we can use your face for a halloween mask if it freezes suddenly with that expression on it.. how would you feel if your sister died after you said such awful things to her?
(this following a normal, sibling scuffle).

riiight, fond memories, ha ha ha, i got my fair share of beltings and mouth washings out and all manner of other creative forms of punishment, but thankfully none of them worked.

Zapped In Style By A Dubbie Lady!
by Englishman inso there i was, slaving away in a customers front garden, cutting fascias and guttering to size prior to affixing them to his home.
like all window and gutter fixers, my clothes are covered with a hundred finger marks where i have used my forefinger to point in the mastic and then just wiped it on the nearest thing to hand, ie, me.
i look like i have been the victim of a 1000 seagull bomber raid.

"We can't be always right about absolutely everything, all the time, you know".
what are they right about, self righteous bitch, i have no sympathy for people like this, i wish they all die horribly in a state of despair and suffering, bastards. support network, friends, social life... yeah she has to say that because you've already pointed out and she has conceded that they don't get it right, silly bitch... i bet she is a michael bolton fan as well.

How do you interact with your worldly relatives?
by pratt1 in.
now that i am no longer a jw, i can associate, and celebrate holidays and other family traditions with my non-jw relatives.
however i am sometimes bitter because i missed so many experiences as a child with my relatives that they seem almost like strangers rather than relatives.. does anyone else feel this way, and how have you bridged the gap?

haven't really got many relatives so it's never been an issue.
