all Watchtower material contains coded messages.

under_believer has joined the mason/illuminati/shapeshifting lizardman conspiracy theory crowd!

everything the watchtower writes for witness consumption has a subtext.

there is a difference between what they actually write, which anyone in the public can read, and what they actually mean.

I hate Walmart!

i rarely ever set foot in the place and will go out of my way to avoid shopping there.

tonight i made the mistake of giving walmart the benefit of the doubt and walked in the door.. they didn't have the main item i was looking for, but they did have one other small item.

i headed to the front to check out only to find they had only a few check-outs open and all of the lines were far too long.

Add me to the Walmart Haters Club. Like Hortensia said, my boycotting it isn't going to hurt them in any way. But by patronizing them I am showing support for their effort, which I refuse to do. I have only shopped there once in the last five years. Drew wanted to get a DVD player that he could only find there. I knew that he was going to get it no matter how much I said Wal mart is evil. I went with him and bought a few groceries. For shame.

Does anyone here know how to find a good hair dresser?

by restrangled in

i am going nuts!

as many of you may remember i had a really bad hair cut and highlighting session that has kept me in misery for at least 60 days.

i now have 2 inches of dishwater blond hair at the top, highly bleached blond in the middle, and that orangey gold at the base.

Amber Rose

It sounds like you aren't looking for a big change. I would suggest cutting off as much of the orangey gold as you can bear to part with so you only have two undesireable colors left to deal with. The hardest part would be the ultra bleached middle. It is going to be hard to get any color to stick to that. What I would suggest for that is to try to find a colored mousse or something called fanci-full rinse. It washes right out if you don't like the color and it's really easy to apply. Secondly, even if you pay $120 try to put black over bleached blond, it won't stick. It will fade right out. So I say try the easy $10 drug store remedy. (Its done the trick for me several times)

All the good hair dressers around here are JW's! (Seriously!) So I've got to find a new one myself.

Should I tell him how I feel or let it go?

brief history: my mom shuns me, my step dad is not a jw but thinks pretty much like one and called me apostate when i tried to tell him some things.

my step dad and i have never been close, he was verbally abusive to me growing up.. well, last week he and my mom fly up my ex- and his wife with my daughter (all jw's) to go boating with them and my sisters kids.

i am glad my daughter got to see her cousins....but, i am sure if they talked about me at all it was not positive talk.

a good, little, Dubby wife who goes where her "head" asks her to go

Thank goodness I got out before I became one of those.

I just want to know what kind of woman want to fly up to spend time with her husband's ex-wife's mom and sisters!

You Must Push, Push, Push To Accomplish More, More, More

by The wanderer in

jw
friends

you must push, push, push to accomplish more, more, moreone of the major reasons in leaving the organization was the pressure exerted on the individual.

in the congregation.

it always seemed as if your best was never good enough and more could .

Amber Rose

As a JW I felt guilty for relaxing or having fun. I didn't study my lesson for tonight, I should be getting caught up on my magazines, I should read the YearBook instead of this "worldly" book, I should be working on a better FS presentation, why am I watching TV when I could be "studying"...and on and on.

My 20 year old JW brother is dating a 30 year old sister - should I worry?

by nicolaou in

i just found out yesterday.

i remember the girl from my 'past life' when she was still at school - she's nice, but i hear that she's been in a couple of relationships that didn't work out.

thing is, the dub version of a 'courtship' that doesn't work out is when it doesn't end in marriage!

Amber Rose

is there such a shortage in the organization of attractive, intelligent and articulate young men like my bro' that even a 30 year old would consider him marriage material?

Yes. If a girl is not married by the time she's 21, its slim pickin's. Oh, its sad what these "older" women will try to go after. I knew this short young guy who married a considerably older woman who was also taller than him. It was weird because it seemed like he was dating his mom. He was a total dork! He dyed his hair primary colors and drove a loud stupid car. And she acted like a mom.

What JW Things or Beliefs Never Really Interested You?

by minimus in

i never cared about chronology.

i was never interested in stupid convoluted explanations about dates or how a scripture in revelation applied to the anointed.

it was always bs to me.

Amber Rose

I don't think I was interested in any of it. Maybe the beasts.

And following along in your Watchtower while a speaker gives a TALK is stupid!

Ditto that! People thinks it makes them look more "spiritual" when they do that.
