In Calgary they often don't even have a cart, they just stand in the +15 walkway holding a JW.Org sign, nothing else at all and they don't try to engage anyone that I've seen

Crazy ass cart witnessing!
by Crazyguy ini know i know we have all read about it but my mom goes out in service to this crazy cart witnessing crap.
so they go sit by the cart for a half hour then they get back into the car to warm up and the next two sisters take over for a half hours etc.
but then there is at least one brother siting in his car to watch and over see the sisters so he can be like their security.

Anyone Tried "Sous Vide" Cooking?
by Simon ini like a nice steak but cooking one can be a little intimidating and the results hit and miss especially when it comes to getting the right temperature so getting it wrong can be an expensive mistake.
can anyone do that "finger and thumb together to check the doneness" thing?
i can't .... so i came across this cooking technique called "sous vide" which cooks food (in a sealed vacuum bag) in a warm water bath, even steak.

I put a steak in the oven for 20-30 minutes, depending on the thickness and it's done! Why wait more than an hour for one steak, to me makes no sense.
Because it tasted so much better than a stake cooked on the grill or oven. It seriously was the best stake I've ever had.

Suicides
by new boy ini have been on the phone the last to two weeks calling people i've known over the last forty years most of who are still jehovah's witnesses.
some of these people who didn't know i was "out" talked to me and some who knew i was "out" still talked to me.
some of the those people are even elders.. by book new boy will be dedicated to all the people who have killed themselves because of being a jehovah's witness or knowing others who were jehovah's witnesses.

I can't get permission from dead people and I will not use fake names
But you should get permission from the people you spoke to and are using as your sources, especially when they may not have been fully aware of your status in the org. You've posted their full names and locations. That is what people are taking issue with

I think the comparison is ridiculous
How many JWs are in danger of being publicly executed for watching a movie and living in constant fear? How many JW children have to watch their mothers be raped ? How many JW's have to walk across a desert to leave -you just stop going to meetings hardly the same even if people do stop talking to you
