i literally had dozens of suits.
i still have more dress clothes than anyone i know.
i did give some suits and clothing away and to be honest, i still like wearing a nice suit.. brothers and sisters, are all your “ meeting clothes” still in your closet?
I used to have three suits. Not very good ones. And about 20 ties.
When I left I got rid of them all. Then when the occasion came up to wear a suit (a friends christening) I decided to by a really nice suit. So now I own two really nice ones. A bit expensive, but then the only time I wear a suit nowadays are fancy Christmas do’s and special occasions – so it makes sense to get a nice one.
I have about 4 ties. Again, each one stylish.
I don’t think I’ve worn a suit since last Christmas actually.
so apparently, not only can people identify as men or women, regardless of reality, but they've now declared that people can identify as black or white as well!
no word yet from rachel dolezal, who will no doubt be declared a visionary, and sadly michael jackson didn't live long enough to celebrate.. i must say, now that i am a black woman, my views on reparations have completely changed.
y'all owe me some reparations bitches to make up for slavery yo.
I’m an involuntary celibate golden calf.
Do I get a flag?
many years ago, we lived in a world where the one tv in your house might be black and white, perhaps color if you were lucky, but either way the screen was small and the arial on your house would struggle to deliver a decent signal but often fail in a fuzzy mess.
most of the movies you saw were old, there was no home video or rental - you got a chance to see something and then it was gone.
planning your viewing was important to make sure you didn't miss something so you'd carefully scan the tv guide to pick out your favourites ... good job there were only 2 or 3 channels to look through.. but you could still see quality if you went to the movie theatre and there you got to see glorious film on a giant screen (which is only now being equalled quality wise).
For us young boys in 1990s England, it was Jet from Gladiators.
I was only 10! I still remember the funny feelings that didnt make sense.
Cummon, my fellow Brits, who remembers her?
the watchtower is thrilled with the amount baptised in the 2019 service year.

Wow! I wonder where the majority of all those newly baptized ones came from?

speaking to a pimo from my hometown yesterday.
he told me that in the watchtower study (10 nov 2019) regarding “the great tribulation” the elder on the platform said that there’s no need for jws to preach in every country in order to fulfil the prophecy, and therefore the org has already fulfilled that prophecy.
and that there’s nothing else left to wait for now but for “the great tribulation” to come.. gasps of delight came from the audience.. has anyone else heard this?
It's interesting how they are now claiming that there web site is now fulfilling the preaching of the Good News to all the inhabited earth.
Who remembers when the internet was evil?
this was cringe worthy, and yet hilarious to watch.
i'm sensing that this was a person studying with jws because she's so bad at defending the very basics.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j0rcmjczeb8.

years ago when i was a jw, one of their cornerstone teachings was that they were nothing like babylon the great.
i remember being taught that the witnesses not using any type of clergy class distinction was proof that they had the right religion.. well, recently we had this article in the local paper, and an elder who was no doubt the presiding overseer tried to use the clergy class excuse to get out of answering questions regarding a child abuse case.
here is the statement that really got to me.
Watchtower has always desired to be Clergy.
Check the articles, they always say that they have no “PAID clergy”
Thats correct, lastmanstanding. It's a phrase that slips by the rank and file when they say it. They have a clergy, just no paid clergy.

Has anyone else heard this? I’ve not seen it in print anywhere.
just looking at the pictures in tomorrow's wt study makes me think of the nightmares i used to have as a child.
and nowadays the pictures are sometimes more realistic, so for any who are truly mentally in, this has a terrible effect on them and even their life choices.
looking in as a pimo or pomo it seems almost comical that adults would believe in this sci-fi bible fan-fiction, but it's not funny when we remember that all ages of the r&f are being manipulated by the gb by these cheap and evil means.. .
Can’t wait to see next years convention propaganda. How are they gonna top last years?

I have to wonder why they’re ramping it up to the max lately. Wonder what they’ll do in another few years when we’re still here with no Armageddon? You can only keep this up so long.
