Anger management
by darth frosty inanger management .
when you occasionally have a really bad day, and you just need to take it out on someone, don't take it out on someone you know, take it out on someone you don't know.
i said, "don, you're an a$$hole!

that was really funny! I laughed out loud. Reminds me of a definition I read once that stress is the result of the mind's attempt to stop the body from beating the shit out of someone who richly deserves it.

Plucking rafters from thine eye...
by Crumpet inokay anyone got a cure for styes - i'm not sure it is a stye - just my eye is twitching and its really annoying.
anyway i can stop it short of pegging my eyelid?
i am not going to america with a twitch - you'll think all us english folks have that problem.. .

I didn't like "The Queen" either - was a little boring and highly unlikely. As for your twitch, it's probably due to fatigue or stress, at least that sort of thing often is. If it keeps up, you might see if your doctor would give you the med for restless leg syndrome - not requip but the one called gabapent (I think) which helped me with that kind of problem. Now I'm going to be in trouble - I diagnosed and prescribed all in one email - practicing medicine without a license!

District Conventions
by EAGLES ini hadnt been to a d.c. in about 10 years is it really true that congragations have to sit together now????
whats up with that is it so that the elders can see who's there and who isnt.
that would blow my scam from way back when i would maybe make one half of one day and tell people i made all 4 days.

why cover a vending machine? Why not just let it run out? Seems mighty petty to me. Garybuss - thanks for standing up for the little kid. Poor things need people to look out for them, inside or outside the org. I remember being in line at the post office once when a youngish mother stood there talking bad about her poor little kid saying rather unkind things, not just a mom bitching, but really cruel. I turned around and told her "he is a nice little kid and he can understand what you are saying. You should never talk about him like that again to anyone." You should have seen everyone step back and look at me as if I was poisonous.

Is there a JWD mindset?
by beginnersmind innot sure if this is the correct place to post this but i thought it would be better in here out of the choices.
the title was to hopefully make you at least be interested in this post whereas the politically correct non generalised question might be "is there a mindset of some on jwd?.
a while back i was browsing the forums and 2 posts stood out.

or how about "we're mad as hell and we're not going to take it any more!"

"Speaking (admittedly!) for myself, it is more a case of nothing would surprise me anymore about the JWs. "
I agree with that. I also have to admit that I am not really interested in what any JW has to say to defend the religion. As far as I am concerned that conversation is closed, as I spent 32 years in that org. and was a diligent little bible scholar most of that time. I don't have to keep getting hit over the head to realize I really hate this religion.
However, there is a difference between lack of interest and actively driving folks away. I don't click on lots of posts, if I think they are likely to be arguing the Bible, just not interested. But when I do read a post I disagree with, I don't mind saying so.
Insofar as many folks posting here have had personal experience with the WTBTS, they may agree with me that they don't want to hear it any more.

Name Things Witnesses Make Big Deals Over
by minimus inhave you ever seen a witness get absolutely giddy over placing a measly tract with a neighbor and get up on the platform and tell the "experience" of how the neighbor actually said that he'd read it!
big deal!!!.
in our hall, they loved to applaud over the dumbest things!
-
Hortensia
well demons is definitely something they make a big deal over. But I remember a group of women, from 20ish to great-grandmotherish, making a big deal out of letting a little boy lead the prayer at a field service meeting because he was the only baptized male present, a little kid about 9 or 10 years old. Boy is that sick.

What did you think of "new light"?
by reneeisorym inyou kind of get to a point where you know all the answers when you are a jw.
you don't really have to research much more because its the same stuff they present over and over again.
"jehovah's reminders" but i kind of looked forward to new light.
-
Hortensia
interesting how the new light always appeared regularly every year just in time for the big convention - sort of like the super bowl half time show - keeps the folks interested.

first time I went to Beijing I found out that every business over there charges Americans more, so I said I was from East Germany. They always lowered the prices for someone from a communist country. I thought that was interesting - they just believed that all Americans are rich.
