  Tell me what you did on the doors?

  by ballistic in

  me and my pioneer partner used to play a game while going door to door (we were obviously bored).

  in our rural territory, we had a lot of time between doors to make things up, so various games evolved.

  just about the naughtiest was to give your partner a word which they had to use at all costs in their presentation.. this started out as 'kingdom' and 'jesus' but soon became 'tractor', 'dog' and then even 'honda 250' and so on.

  Termite and Lisa-

  Your stories literally made me bust out in continuous laughter. Thank you!

  Me and badwillie worked together a lot when we were teens. We would make up our own language while between doors. For example, we took the word 'buttocks' and kept changing it's pronunciation until we ended up calling it 'buswahsiswah'. Then, we would tack-on "swahsiswah" to words in our conversations that we didn't want people to understand. LOL

  Badwillie and I also used to fart at the door just after one of us rang the bell. We would try to time it so that the smell would go away before the housholder came to the door. ROTFL!!! (Sorry to offend anyone who is turned off by bathroom humor!)

  Pardon me for posting under Mister 8iggs.

  There is a method to my madness. After 9/11/02, I will retire Mister 8iggs. I e-mailed Simon to receive his permission. He never responded to me but since it's not deactivated, I'm sure he approves.

  Moving on...

  LittleOldMe- No rest room in the shed. LOL! You raise an excellent point, though. I never thought of that.

  Nikita- Jedi yet, I am not.

  jjrizo- You were a rare GOOD JW.

  WOULD YOU PREACH TO A DOG???

  this little gem is from the watchtower, january 15, 2000...."in el salvador,one man tied his vicious dog in front of the door whenever he saw jehovah's witnesses nearby.

  the man would wait for the witnesses to move on, and then he would bring the dog back into the house.

  the brothers were never able to speak to the man.

  On many occasions I've seen a DOG witnessing to a tree.

  I guess that's not the same kinda preaching.

  "I planted, our dog Fido watered, and pee kept making it grow."

  The rest of the story goes:

  "The man, now our brother, eventually became an Elder. However, due to his responsibilities to his congregation, as well as his loyalty to the 'faithful and discreet slave', he didn't have enough time in each day to feed, walk, or bathe 'Buddy'*** He had to put Buddy up for adoption. Unfortunately, Buddy, being 11 years old (that's 77 years old in "people" years), was too attached to the new brother AND too doggone old for any families in search of a doggy. So, our new brother did the "Christian" thing and took Buddy out back and shot 'im."

  ***Names have been changed.

  Would YOU welcome a visit?

  Like Buddy, we here on the Governing Body, are old. We strive to be loyal to Jehovah...the same way Buddy was loyal to his owner. Also, like Buddy, we are getting shot at by Apostates. But, UNLIKE Buddy, we will live to times indefinite! If you would like to learn more about how you can support us...er....we mean Jehovah....then please visit your local Kingdom Hall.

  Do you get disappointed if no one responds?

  by Larry in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  writing should be for our own edification - a personal cleansing, therapeutic at the least.

  if you write for other people's approval, you will be disappointed, especially when you share your thoughts on the 'net.

  i've seen many folks get 'burn-out' from these boards b/c they don't get the expected respond to their post.

  It's sometimes frustrating when you take a lot of time and thought to post something that you feel might be beneficial to others OR when you need (or want) feedback from others, and then it gets read 10 times before getting buried on page 2 and beyond. This board can be sort of like a support group for those going through JW related stuff.

  The REALLY frustrating part is when certain "Trolls" start a post and they get hundreds of responses from people on this forum when they respondents (and the Troll) know that the Trolls aren't sincere in their questions. Then, people with a serious or an important post gets buried.

  My 2 cents.

  I am Quincy's older brother (I'm 32). Quincy was never a JW. Our mom was and our older sister ("Nikita") was, I was, and our older brother still is.

  Our mom and sister stopped attending meetings around 1985ish. Quincy was only 5 years old at the time. He never really got a chance to get involved with the religion. His girlfirend was never a JW.

  This is just an FYI for those who were asking.
