what were some of yours?
the big one in our hall was no frontal hugs!
these were generally thought of as inappropriate, only side hugs should be given between sisters and brothers.
This thread is giving me PTSD! All these things. Be there 20 minutes before the meeting, Reserving the back rows, no chewing gum, Skirts below the knees, Brothers sitting in the aisle seat, Ad nauseam!
Ok, let us all review everyone.....
IT'S A CULT!

No bubble gum! Yep! I remember a brother giving a local needs part about that as I sat chewing my gum like a cow only 3 rows from the front. His face was soooooo red it was hilarious!
and do you think he has a chance to win it all?
?.
flipper:
Total asshole. He got his lunch handed to him at the Democratic debates last night. He's a racist, opportunistic billionaire trying to skate in with disingenuous commercials portraying he and Obama were buddies. Just another Democratic version of a Trump wanna be. Peace out, Mr. Flipper

Where to begin????
No sitting next to ANYONE of the opposite sex if you are not dating and or married. The only exception is if you are late and the attendant sits you next to them.
No bow ties if you have a meeting part. If you wear one, you will be pulled into the back room after the meeting.
No pink dress shirts. You might catch te geys if you do!
If you are a male and cleaning the women's restroom, someone needs to stand at the door way to warn any sister you're in there (also true for women cleaning the men's room.)
I could go on but this is making me sick, LOL!
i recall that some wt articles talk about why people leave the “truth” like maybe they have a secret sin perhaps like masturbation, etc.. i would like to show my worldly friend the articles.
when i told him that, he looked at me like i am crazy!
i want to show him the proof!
You mean like this RubaDub?
for those of you who've watched the witnesses documentary, let's suppose for a moment that the org was forced to make their database of abusers available to the courts.
if this database is as detailed and meticulous as it is claimed, how in the world could the org (in its present form) survive that?
assuming they don't go bankrupt after all of the new abuse claims, would they go underground, shut down the kingdom halls, stop the preaching?
I heard that the WT has hired the same firm that held all those emails for Hillary Clinton.
to everyone:i am trying to locate anyone who might know carl bruce or his wife julie.
carl was a bethelite as far back as the mid-1980s in brooklyn new york.
it appears that he was married to julie during that time period, and he may still be a bethelite serving in wallkill.
He was at Wallkill a few years ago. I believe he is in the Circuit work now. I wish I had more to offer.
besides the media center they are going to build in n.y. it's been noted they are also building one and a studio in australia.
there is no way donations can cover these massive projects.
so the money will have to come from the sale of the remaining halls.
I know at my old Hall, a couple of the houses that had the study in them complained that the Congregation should help with repairs. I believe there was a Meeting with the Elders at the Circuit level because it was fairly widespread. Then, 1 year latter the new and improved Bible Study with the School was started.Tameria2001 an hour ago
There is a huge problem with meeting in people's homes, not zoned. I was told that was why they stopped having the Tuesday night (or whatever night) book study in private homes.
so a few things .... apparently it's superbowl 54, and also the centennial of the sport.
erm ... i'm not a mathematician, but aren't there 46 superbowls missing?.
americans claim that uk sport ("soccer", aka real football) is too low scoring.
I think Americans would like Soccer (Football) more if it was more like Hockey on grass....ie....smaller field, faster pace game.
what the hell?
it's after 4 am here in minnesota and my brain just won't shut down.
of all things....in the middle of the night,algebra is bugging me.
@ Rubadub
Sorry if I came off harsh and ignorant with my defense of HappyDad. I should have been more tactful and the words I used were uncalled for. Respect to you...
