  Have you considered telling your wife that you're really disappointed in her lack of support for you or your daughter?

  No, you are not wrong.

  Have you told her how you feel?

  As I've often said, "If it's conditional, it ain't love!"

  Dangling, or misplaced modifiers, often result in humorous, unintentional misstatements. Here's a classic, albeit deliberate, example from the inimitable Groucho Marx:

  "One morning I shot an elephant in my pajamas. How he got into my pajamas I'll never know." - Groucho Marx

  When I was 16 my older sister and I were in Paris. After a few days we decided to head to the south of France.

  This conversation actually took place at the train station. I'll begin with the ticket seller's queries then follow with my responses.

  The ticket seller asked us in quick succession:

  • Are you American? Do you speak French? Good day. How many tickets and where are you going?

  To which I replied:

  Yes, sir!

  No, sir.

  And how do you do, sir?

  We'll take two. Yes, two to Toulouse, sir!

  Lloyd’s new book

  by jwfacts in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i see there has already been discussion over lloyd’s new book how to leave the jehovah's witnesses.

  this includes discussion around his personality, motives and financial gains.

  i have written a foreword for this book, because it is an important topic that has not been covered in such a complete format before.

  Dubstepped: Could it not be said that those that spend their time speaking against those that are actually doing something for the cause are making it about themselves?

  You mean like you’re doing with a question like that? Yes absolutely, that could be said.

  I also like to turn things around and see how it plays from both angles.

  NSWTG: As soon as [Lloyd] DA himself then the focus of his channel was himself and not the content ... he changed his direction [and] made it about himself.

  Exactly!

  For some people it's about the cause; for others the cause is a way to make it about them.

  YMMV

  When You Die Would You Haunt The Governing Body? If It were Possible?

  by Brokeback Watchtower in

  1. watchtower

  i've been reading a lot about reincarnation these days and i'm beginning to think that it quite possibly might be true, it seems to fit in nicely with the idea that we live in a computer simulation.. anyway according to the tibetan book of the dead when we die we seem to hang around on the earth waiting for rebirth.

  at which time we could be ghosts.

  BBW: I would fuck big time with AM#3. I would tell him that Jehovah is very angry with him

  You probably noticed that I lifted some of that dialogue straight from the Sparlock video using the ultra-manipulative words Caleb's whack-job mommy used on him.

  Scratch: Isn't the idea of becoming ex-JWs freeing yourself from them, now, alive, wanting nothing to do with them, you know, getting a life instead of continuing wanting to know everything about them?

  Exactly!

  Which is precisely why we all spend so much time here on this forum!
