You are tomato sauce...

by rrb2016 in

the wife and i went to the memorial strictly out of respect for my mother-in-law last night.

luckily our 20 month-old grand-baby was restless and making noise, so i quickly volunteered to take him in the back.

so i didn't have to listen to the presentation.

Hmmm… “First” tomatoes, or “extras?”

Both are meant to be consumed and then flushed away as waste.

Here is the variety that uses such dehumanizing illustrations:

"Buy their fruits — You shall know them!" (TM)

Filmmaker’s mission to turn camera on religion

“People stay in this faith not because they want to, or because they believe it,” he explained. “It’s because they’re afraid of being excommunicated, of losing their families, their friends . . . I want to hope this will help change things.”

What CAN’T those brilliant Bethel boys accomplish with Sophia’s ice cream money and Satan’s worldly technology?

Actually, their cult competitors beat them to it:

Tight Pants

by pixel in

today is friday.

so let's see something refreshing on the new june 2016 study wt.

tight pants!.

What’s that sound?

It’s the stampede of young men fleeing the Kingdom Halls over this discouraging harassment.

In reality, Brother Trendy sprints to the Internet to complain about these meddling elduhs and gets the advice he needs to leave the cult without losing his family.

What's a word that describes the way Witnesses behave as a group?

by paul from cleveland in

i can't recall the word that describes a group that keeps to itself like the witnesses do.

i thought it was "insular" but i don't think that's the one i'm looking for after reading the definition.

i remember an elder using the word "clannish" and that has the proper definition but it reminds me of a group of elves.

slightly redacted for privacy of those involved.. so, this is "park witnessing" in oklahoma.. the parks in this community are basically walking trails and some tatty playground equipment.

most of the time, sparsely used, and today was a very blustery day.. notice the justifying comment- "quite a few" checking out the cart.

i am sure they were..... .
