I was in one at Norwich.
We had rehearsals each time with a different 'director'. They were sanctimonious attention seekers.
It was wholly an unpleasant experience.....but I got to wear women's tights.

Assembly Dramas:They were so bad.... but.... you waited for them to break away from the monotony!
by RULES & REGULATIONS in.
you do remember the four day assemblies... sitting outdoors being fried in the sweltering heat,getting heat stroke in the middle of july in an outdoor baseball stadium.sitting outdoors from 9:45 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. was so much fun while you wore a suit,long sleeve shirt and a tie while your brain fried.
mom's who had children to take care of,lug strollers,feed all the kids,take them for bathroom breaks and try to not faint from the heat.. the sound and audio was always breaking and barely audible from the wind,airplanes flying over and (if you attended the cicero,illinois circuit )you would smell horse manure from the horse stables next door.. you know that you are a jehovah's witness.... when the only excitement waiting for the drama... where brothers and sisters dress up in ancient cloths,fake beards,fake rocks and fake soldier uniforms and wave their hands incessantly to pretend that they are acting out a drama.the excitement was unbearable!.

TV and the Media
by punkofnice ini look at tv and the media as all fiction.. i wonder if the media is now just a tool to cauterise the brain and zombify us?
i'm sure the uk's bbc does.
it seems to be a tool to brainwash people to buy into latest agenda or trend that must be followed.....or you're an outcast like a disfellowshipped one.

He probably meant, sniff enough powder.

Well done England!
by LoveUniHateExams inin the women's euro tournament, england beat germany 2-1 at wembley!!!.
i'll be honest - i've never really been that interested in women's football.
no, it's not because i'm a sexist pig, it's just that i was brought up on men's football and haven't had a tv license for the past 10 years.. but this win could really put women's football on the map, at least in britain.. there has been a bit of hysteria about the nickname 'lionesses' but i think it's a great name.

I can't be bothered with sport. It's not my thing and I can't be doing with all the tribalism in it. However, if it's your thing then go for it. Enjoy.
One question.
Was the team 'diverse(tm)' enough for the divisive, neo-communist BBC(who divide people up by skin colour)?

I've seen it 1st hand where the local rag told blatant lies. A guy got arrested for supplying drugs. They said the value was worth so many thousand £'s. If you knew the guy, you'd know he hadn't got access to that sort of money ever. Not to buy and not to sell. they said it's what the Police reported.
So, either the Police lied (which I totally believe. We all know that here in the UK the police steal valuables from the evidence locker), or the reporters made the value up to get readers. Also believable.
The Press and the Police, both very corrupt organisations.
They just tell blatant lies for sensationalism. It's like click-bait.
I have boycotted the local rag and will tell others to do the same. I've met some of the reporters, they're middle class, snooty narcissists. I hope nasty things happen to them involving genitals and fleas.

Ren - So I’m dating a JW guy I’m a witness myself
Not good.
How do you girls date? Do you hold hands from the beginning, do you kiss? You meet the guy’s parents?
What weird questions. How old are you and which troll were you when you were last here?

Do they qualify what they mean by 'not allowed'. Just thinking out loud. I can't be bothered reading it myself because I don't want to die of terminal constipation.
It's very poorly written.

Sanderson’s “Young People” convention talk
by FFGhost inso did anyone else have the misfortune of listening to sanderson’s talk corresponding to the saturday morning convention program?.
full title is “young people - choose a path that leads to peace!”.
the basic idea is, hey you teenagers, you ought to be pioneers, wt construction workers, and/or bethelites.. i tried to put myself back in time an embarrassing number of decades…if i were in this talk’s target audience, how would i respond?.

FFG - So did anyone else have the misfortune of listening to Sanderson’s talk corresponding to the Saturday morning convention program?
Not on your nelly. I'd sooner gnaw my winkie off.
what the greasy pig really means is, 'give us your money and let Uncy Sanderson sodomise you if you're under the age of 12.'

I can't do the US Lottery but I can do EuroMillions or the UK Lotto.
If I won a Million quid, I'd keep quiet about it. Probably just move to a better area...like Canada, if Trudeau would have me (I don't care how you spell his name, I'm not a fan. He should have stayed in the Rock Band, Triumph was it?)!!
I wouldn't blow it on tat. It probably wouldn't be obvious from my lifestyle either.
I would indulge in hookers!
