My ex sometimes apologized, but even the way he did that pissed me off...
He would always say, "I'm sorry you got upset" or "I'm sorry you misunderstood me" or something like that. Never apologized for his OWN actions, just for my reaction.
yesterday i had a little spat with my wife.
it's all cleared up today.
she's a wonderful gal and we love each other very much.. but one thing kinda bugs me.

in my 25 years or so in "christendom" i've been to many different churches in different denominations and have heard hundreds, perhaps thousands, of sermons.
in all that time i have never heard the term "immortal soul" used, not even once.
yet the jws go on (and on, and on!
My JW ex-husband went with me to my Grandma's funeral (Methodist) and the minister shared a brief sermon. I asked him afterward to name one point that the minister made that was different from what he believed and (other than the obvious...Heaven) he couldn't - - he finally sputtered something about the cross being on display in the pulpit.
how important does a person have to be before they are considered .
assassinated instead of just murdered?
since bread is square, why is sandwich meat round?
Why do they put Braille on the drive-through bank machines?
I know this is a joke thread, but SERIOUSLY, why do they do this???? I also noticed the other day in a public restroom a "No Smoking" sign in braille. Like if you are blind the first thing you are going to do when you walk into a public bathroom is to start feeling all over the walls to see if its okay to light up. WTF?

i personally liked ren and stimpy.
they were funny.. (edited)
I like "King of Queens". I also watch "Jeopardy!" every night with my kids - we love to play along.
South Park
Tee hee, I like South Park too, Yeru!!!

if, after armageddon, everything will be returned to an eden-like state, will everyone be naked?
some of the brothers and sisters i've seen..... ewwwwwwww.
Will their be dress shops? factories? pollution - synthetics? my my, better not look too far ahead....toilet paper? waste management? fuel?
I have always tried to make that point. How will these industries be run without "worldly" practices?

All the women will be perfectly pert and shapely and all the men will be slightly tanned, well-toned Adonises. Doesn't anyone pay any attention to the Adam and Eve illustrations in the publications!
Geez, it's gonna be difficult to avoid the snares of sinful fleshly pleasures!

does size matter?
or a grande (medium) cup of coffee at Starbucks (with the sip lid)
Surely they are only talking about length here...
this is a spin-off of another thread where my *mild and chaste* friend, mouthy, admitted to wanting to meet her dream man, tom jones, and that she would even go so far as to throw her bloomers at him, if that is what it would take to get his attention!
well, the mental picture this painted was far too much for me to bear, so i encouraged her to save her red polka-dotted "unmentionables", not only because she might need them in the future, but because i didn't think she'd have to go that far to get his attention.
and i said that - because of a personal experience with him.
Halle Berry - I was working for Revlon when her advertising contract began with them. She's really sweet - doesn't seem pretentious at all.
Rodney Dangerfield - I took an elevator with he and his wife (very attractive) in the Tropicana Resort in Las Vegas.
Entire cast of Beverly Hills 90210 - This was back in 1995 or 1996 - I was at Hard Rock Cafe in Hollywood with some clients and somehow scored tickets to a cast party.
Ari Fleischer - Friend of a friend of mine.
Troy Vincent (Philadelphia Eagles) - He has a vacation home not far from here (my ex contracted it.) He signed a football for my son.
Michael Jordan - Met him at a charity golf tournament. Just a handshake, but it was great... he's my hero!
I can't think of any others right now.
i knew of a couple that left their mates so that they could be with one another.
the elders promptly disfellowshipped them.
the couple made it known immediately, that they were going to apply for reinstatement as soon as possible.
Odrade, I'm totally with you -- and the hard-assed elders-- on this one!
Me too! My ex thinks he can do whatever the hell he wants to do and as long as he plays "repentant" he can go back to his normal self-righteous routine with all the blessings of the congregation. It makes me freaking sick!
