  Most Annoying "Kingdom song?"

  by doodle-v in

  what's a kingdom song you can remember singing that gives you the creeps now?

  mine is "move ahead" i think that was the title, anyway it has so much rhetoric... but the tune is so darn catchy.... darn.... in my opinion, those songs are the perfect example of mind control.

  move ahead.. move ahead ... blah blah blah blah blah .

  doubtless many of us have been to assemblies, and every may the km would come out with an insert about what you were expected to do and how to act.. reviewing the km's over the years , you can see the negative positve "councel".

  how to dress, how to act, howt to tip!.

  after reading this, doesn't it just want to make you run to attend the next d.c. ?

  I remember one DC when rival congo boys got into a fist fight at the mall across the street... We heard about that the very next day during the DC announcements....

  The worst I ever "misbehaved" was I was caught making out with a cute sister in the stairwell of the hotel by an ministerial servant I knew. Boy were my parents upset...

  I remember going to a Jdub "get together" and some elder picked up a guitar and gathered all the "youths" around to sing kingdum melodies.... The trick was he wanted each person to solo a song.... What the hell was I doing there!!!

  The most annoying.... From House to House

  when i was 14 or so, my attention got directed to queen.

  i'd save my allowance to buy cd's, posters, books etc from them.

  I remember the DC when they were trying to say that if you spin Queens " Another bites the dust" backwards it says "decide to smoke marijuana". And they actually played the song backwards and forwards. Of coarse it didn't sound like anything. But it gave my cousin and I a good laugh.

  My dumbest thing I ever did was shunning my cousin cause he was DF.

  What did you do to keep yourself amused at the KH?

  when i was very young about 12 or 13 my brother [he's mad, not much older] sometimes used to do a cheeky magic trick during the watchtower[god, this was the most boring of them all, i think].

  he used to put his hands by his side and miraculously the books on his lap would rise all by themselves [yeah, you guessed it ...morning glory], well it made me laugh my head off.

  i bet people could see my shoulders bouncing up and down from the back row.

  When I was young I would sleep. When I was in my teens I would daydream about having sex with different sisters. And just prior to leaving I would always get coffee and stand in the back and talk to my friends. Thursday night is college night at the bars in Miami so during the TMS meeting, my friends and I would discuss which bar we were going to hit afterward....

  You should have nothing to hide

  "you should have nothing to hide".

  for those of you who grew up in the troof, did you get this line from either of your parents?

  did you deem this as a valid excuse for your parents to snoop through your things, or did you actually have nothing to hide.. if you were hiding things, tell about them!

  After sneeking into my Jdub girlfriends window, I would hid under the bed when we heard the parents walking up the stairs..... Sometimes this would happen at the worst possible moment...

  Did you cheat on your monthly report?

  i was always honest with my field service reports, until the time when an elder came over to give me hell because i had only 1 hour that month in the field service.

  i told him that i was working 50 hours a week, had a 4 day district convention that month and couldn't do miracles that month.

  he never accepted my explanation.. .

  I alway rounded up, which was always padded.I used to dump my trash(back issue mags) at laundry mats and if I was working friends we would always fake knocking.

  Sometimes I see Jdubs working the strip malls and I test them to see if they are going to approach me. Not once have I even gotten a look. They just sit there and drink their Starbucks coffee.

  Dramas

  by In_between_days in

  1. jw

  one of the funniest things i will ever remember as a jw are the "big dramas" at the assemblys.

  it was amazing how everyone would sit through the torture of the infinate talks and "skits" with an incredibly bored look on their faces, yet when the drama got closer, the apathetic faces piped up, became animated, excited.

  it was, as far as i could see the "best of the worst" piece of the programme, and by god, even though i spent almost the entire time at the assemblies outside feeding ducks, i was always in one of the front rows for the drama.

  The best part was when the lights went dim so it was harder for my parents to see me sleeping...

  Remember in the movie "The Matrix" the first program created, the world was a perfect utopian society. The problem was the "slaves" were dying too fast....
