  anyone have any pet peeves they'd like to air?

  here's one that just happened at work that is an annoyance for me: when you are speaking and the person interrupts the conversation with a corny play on words or the like.

  for example, "i had to sit on the phone on hold for about 5 minutes, waiting .

  Load of crap

  by yumbby in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in reading previous posts, i had to notice how many of the threads deal with people in the organization who have had serious problems and instead of getting help from the elders, they are driven away sometimes into suicide or a life of severe depression.

  it reminds me of my sister.

  when i was being reproved for leaving home, i was trying to make the point of why i had to leave the way i did and i related that 2 months earlier my sister had ran away because of a beating my mother had given her, and my sister thought my mother was going to kill her.

  Should gays be allowed to adopt?

  by Kenneson in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i watched an interesting program last night (i believe on primetime), wherein diane sawyers interviewed rosie o'donnell.. the topic centered on gays and adoption.

  rosie recently came out of the closet in order to extend her support to florida gays who are prohibited by law to adopt.

  rosie, herself, has three children.. some of these gays, by the way, are foster parents.

  open marriages, anyone have experience?

  by Pierced Angel in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  well, my husband found out about my affair (yes, i gave in to the temptation with the soccer player and while it was fantastic, it's over now) and it's been a devestating time, we almost got divorced, but we're working through it.

  i knew telling friends and this board wasn't going to help me fight his romantic advances, but i tried.

  it was a one time thing that would have continued, but i wasn't too careful about the clues (guilty conscience i think).

  Memorial Experiences from Hell

  by Black Man in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  memorial.....the time of year where we meditate on the supposed significance of jesus' death and watch all types of crazy mufuckas come out of the woodwork.

  anyway, we had a new sister move into our territory and lo and behold claims she's of the anointed.

  she was all of 40 years old, 350 pounds, friendly, feels that the friends should treat her with special reverence "since she's one of christ's brothers" (wouldn't that be sisters?).
