  Name Some Stupid Watchtower Rules or Ideas

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  there's a lot.. one rule that is dumb is that a brother must wear a suit for a sunday public talk that he is giving.

  any other time, the brother could wear a suit coat with a different pair of pants and not be counseled for it.. another dumb idea is that you cannot date a person unless you seriously might marry them.

  if you're on a date, you were supposed to always have a chaperone and holding hands might not be allowed as well as sitting together.. what other dumb rules and ideas can you add?.

  Most Awkward, Embarrassing, Comical things you Experienced as a Witness ?

  many of us i'm sure experienced embarrassing or comical moments as a witness.

  some things we'd rather just forget , i'm sure, but some things helped us think on our feet, quickly in helping others .

  here are a few of mine.

  Your most memorable Kingdom Hall meeting disruptions!

  by easyreader1970 in

  i remember about twenty years ago some teenagers were caught fornicating in one of the additional schools.

  the schools were downstairs, essentially separated from the rest of the kh.

  they weren't just happened upon, though.

  What will you do to celebrate Oct 2 2014?

  by jwfacts in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  like most people reading this, i was convinced that by 2014 the new system would 'definitely' have been operating for at least a decade.

  now that i know this is not going to be the case i am going to have to think of some way to recognise 100 years of wts let downs and failed predictions.

  there is no point fretting over the past so i think it will be a good time to celebrate.

  it got me thinking, about tv shows, anything in particular you were told not to watch, being a little kid in the 70's i do remember hearing shows from the platform that we should not watch.

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i know of a couple of elders that regularly went out in the ministry throughout the week.

  no matter which street they were on, they always seemed to be near the same spot.

  someone here talked about the michael jackson moonwalk.

  Tell us about your Profile Pic

  by Beck_Melbourne in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  just wondering about some of the profile pics...i think its nice to know a bit about the person you want us see, or the person you don't want us to see.

  so what were you thinking when the pic was taken, how long ago, and where were you?

  mine was taken last month, just after my 36th birthday.
