  I hate coffee, I hate the taste, and I hate the smell. I do like the kick I get when I drink it though. Every once in a while I'll have a cup. I have to put a lot of cream and sugar in it to drink it. I can't drink it too often, because it gives me cramps in my legs at night, Diet Coke does the same thing to me so I don't drink that either. I drink a lot of water because I get dehydrated easily. If I want a drink with caffeine I usually get a Diet Pepsi.

  The only time you will catch me drinking coffee is if I'm really tired and I need a energy boost or I'm hung over and need to wake up.

  found some mags at my place of work

  by looloo in

  the jws had obviously , just called , wish i had answered the door ,i looked through the awake and on page 20 , it refers to if you make criminals your companians ,you are more likely to end up one , or words to that affect !

  so in the publics version they use the term "criminals " and i presume the jw only (koolaid)version the word "criminal"is replaced with anyone who is not a jw !

  how misleading this cult is , dont the jws ever compare the public and koolaid versions and see how misleading they are ?

  When I find mags rags I rip them up and throw them out. I wouldn't want anyone to find such trash. I wouldn't even bother to look at them.

  New Here....and a Brief Intro

  by Yan Bibiyan in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  after lurking around here for about a month, i thought it's appropriate to introduce myself to such fine group of people.. i was never a jw.

  been married to a baptized mate for over 15 years.

  my wife was never technically all in, more of a fader, rarely went to meetings, the occasional memorial, a convention once or twice.

  I am eagerly awaiting your next thread comparing JW indoctrination to Communists. Sounds interesting. As an American who grew up durring the Cold War I've always wondered about Communists. I remeber the day the Wall fell and how excited I was. I'm glad you got out before you got in.

  No Scott77 I don't want children. I find them to be a major drain on time and energy. I'm 35 years old now and I have zero interest in procreating. In fact I've never wanted kids even when I was one.

  I invested in two pairs of cargo pants...

  by Gregor in

  2. friends

  the kind with the big pockets just above the knees.

  so far it has not paid off.

  i have approached several small business people about hauling cargo but they all seem hung up on ups or fedex.

  I was told I am nerd smart tonight. My adopted sister says she's smart, but I'm a nerd. I don't know why. It might have a little to do with being able to explain the basics of just about anything to her when she asks a question. Like tonight I told her what a "dry socket" was after someone had a tooth pulled and told her he was in pain from a dry socket. She had no clue what it was. She thought he got hit with a tool.

  My mom also made the comment to me that she knew one day I would leave the JW's. She said I was never cut out to be one. I question authority to much. I've also never been one to suffer idiocy easily. To bad she didn't tell me that before I got baptized.

  When you meet up with real life friends who are ex-Jehovah's Witnesses...

  by Quillsky in

  2. friends

  ....... how much of your conversation is "exie" stuff?.

  for me, i don't have many ex-jw friends, but those i do have are brilliant friends and we entertain our partners a lot with ex-talk.

  the spouses find our history a bit weird but fascinating..

  When my friends and I get together we share stories of our past. I have friends whom I've known for many years both as JW's and as EX JW's. Mostly we talk about our adventures growing up. Not much JW stuff comes up. When it does we have to explain it to those who are not EX JW's so they get it.

  Yes I recently deleted 50 people from my facebook. Mostly people who had some ex jw connection but I didn't know who the were on the boards. I also deleted the Christians who kept trying to save me. Sorry but I don't need to be saved, and I don't care if Jesus loves you leave me alone!!
