And now for something really controversial !

by jhine in

ok , the new james bond theme .

is it really a bond theme ?

i'm not sure , no mention of the film title , no nod to bond at all .

stan livedeath

has to be sean connery. ive been a bond fan since i saw the second film--from russia with love. ( didnt see dr no when it first came out--not till a lot later. still like both )

then read all the books.

They would all fit on the isle of Wight?

by purrpurr in

i remember once asking how the planet could possibly accommodate all the people who have ever lived?

after the resurrection i mean.

the answer i was told is that the gb had calculated that all the people who have ever lived could all fit on to the isle of wight?!.

How to survive an assembly

by BlackWolf in

jw

hey i was just wondering if you guys had any ideas on how to keep my brain occupied while i'm at an assembly tommorow.

maybe besides tallying the number of times they say jehovah and jesus or counting how many people are wearing red.

i want to keep myself from going insane or having some kind of panic attack lol.

they day before-----eat lots of beans and eggs.

on the day drink plenty of fizzy drinks.

count how often you fart.

If your post doesn't appear immediately ...

by Simon in

... but it's been submitted.

just be patient.

all you will do is create duplicate posts which will delay yours appearing even longer due to how the posting limits work.. sometimes i need to run some jobs which slow the site down.

no problem here--i havent even posted this yet

Witnesses - Ever Wondered Why You're So Tired After Assemblies/Meetings?

by The Searcher in

recently shared this with me.. they compared the tiredness they felt after attending an assembly and meetings, and noted how much worse it was than actually working and studying hard for hours for their secular employment!

why were they so exhausted after an assembly/meeting?

no, it wasn't satan.

i can still vaguely remember the last ever big arsembly i ever went to--wembley ( old ) stadium--London UK--about 69 ?

i vowed i would never go to another--so far ive kept my promise.

its right there near the top of my lifetimes worst events.

A new member

by Kurteousmaximus in

hi... i am new and after nearly 20 years after being disassociated at 15 i would like to make contact with others who have similar difficulties.

my mother was disfellowshipped shortly after my rebellion and had all ties with both her mother and brother cut and that remains the case.. just really hacked off with not being able to put things in the proper place in my life after all these years.

for the record i don't know if i believe in god but am searching for some peace as i seem to self destruct on a regular basis.. any ideas anyone?.

stan livedeath

cantleave is actually my identical twin---except hes a lot older and nowhere near as good looking.

Do they notice who no longer gives donations?

by onightdivine in

because i haven't put in a single dime for over a year now in the box at the kh.

the usual custom is to put money in there right after the meetings.

but heck, i already spend so much in car fuel just to attend - i don't care really if the gb starves and dies.. oops.. anyway, do the elders take note who's donating and who's not?.

stan livedeath

just put a plain envelope in--empty of course.

How About Phony Cart Work At Frequent Cart Spots?

by Brokeback Watchtower in

for a prank perhaps somebody found a cart spot (busy one), and they set up a phony carts site and do things that will sure to get people to complain to the cart people when they take the spot again?

i'm bored sorta and the idea just pop up and i thought about sending into internet hyperspace.

stan livedeath

it would be funny if two ex jw's were to hijack a cart. just stand next to it and say to any onlooker a few real truths about the watchtower. then see how long it takes for the real dubs to take it away.
