How many Dubs REALLY want the end to come?

by zack in

jw
friends

many of the dubs i know don't really want the end to come.

sure, they like the idea of youth in perpetuity, good health, no death, peace.... who doesn't?

they want those things to end.. but in their heart of hearts, do you really think they actually long for the destruction of other human beings that are so graphically depicted in the pubs?.

jgnat,

Thanks for making me chuckle!

All the practical matters aside, I'm guessing that a lot of martyrdom-hungry JW's would really miss having someone to feed their persecution complexes.

Just watching my daughter's High School video yearbook with her . . .

and thinking how normal they all look and act - having all kinds of worldly fun, very unself-consciously.

my daughter is so happy with getting a copy of the video yearbook from her digital video prodcutions class at a discount .

it's cool to actually see her participating in all the wacky events she spent hours throughout the school year preparing for the night or week before: the school spirit week, tacky day, the prom; the many friends and social events.

Good for you Mdm!

I'm also glad that my own daughter is free to make a lot of her own choices, without having to suffer those ridiculous and narrow restrictions that were imposed on a lot of us as kids.

Noisy Neighbours - what do you do?!

by Crumpet in

okay so here is the scenario:.

i finally acquaint myself with the "floating ship" that is my four poster bed about 1.30 am, finish watching a favourite lullaby horror movie - wolf creek and close my eyes.. minutes later a door slams right next to my ear and then another and what sounds like a gaggle of adolescent girls (reminiscent of the current manless debacle that is big brother uk this year) screams their way into the flat next door at high volume.

they are talking so loud i can hear every inane word they say.

Crumples,

I'd go with Sad Emo's advice, and save the note until next time. Keep a log though.

greetings friends,.

getting older has its benefits.

i just don't take things so hard any more.

I've been alone for the past year now.

I don't like it, and hope I never get used to it, but at the present it's necessary whilst I do some personal rebuilding work.

I want a hut and a rock for a washing board. Mrs. Grizzly Adams...

by Sparkplug in

friends

so to top off my wonderful set of horrible happenings as of late...my washer was broke.

so after a couple of weeks i put off going down the street and borrowing an unused one from a friends garage.

i was told it was buried and hard to get out, so i took a bit of time tackling the job.

tim hooper

Sparklet,

Like the others I really hate to laugh at your woes, but dammit woman, you are just so incredibly funny!

When the day comes that your life eventually settles down to some sort of normality, how long do you think it will be before you get bored? A week? A month?

I have this hunch that you secretly thrive on trouble and drama..........
