trump's first wife and mother of his children died recently.

they had her buried on his golf course.

do you think this is tacky or a savvy business move since it'll now get them some tax breaks as a cemetery?.

The day the music died.

is there any new music or singers whatsoever nowadays or just junk?

and how about movies, besides documentaries is there anything at all, any movie at all, any new actor at all that that has any real worth to watch and enjoy or is it all a boring waste of time.

Fishy - Is there any new music or singers whatsoever nowadays or just junk?

It depends on personal taste, I think. I tend to listen to music that is not in the 'charts(tm)'. Popular music is just a product of an industry telling the public what they have to listen to. It's almost musical fascism.

And how about movies, besides documentaries is there anything at all, any movie at all, any new actor at all that that has any real worth to watch and enjoy or is it all a boring waste of time.

I actually agree with you since it has no question mark at the end. I haven't seen anything recently that has wowed me. Movies are too long and bland.

I saw a documentary last week about Stonehenge. They went from questioning how it was built to telling you how it was built. Utter supposition and lies. I turned it off half way through.

I tend to watch older fiction.

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!.

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.

i 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 in

in 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?

JW "new light" immediately reversed/contradicted

by BoogerMan in

september 2022 study watchtower - par.

14 p. 18 - "after all, no one will be allowed to practice vile things in the new world.

the unrighteous must have practiced these vile things before their death.

punkofnice

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.
