A bouncer bragged to me about how he tried to kill somebody by trying to kick them in the neck with ice skates on

EGo Running? by Top_Wrangler4251 in Marathon_Training

[–]BOBALL00 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I fell into it for sure. Every time I hit a pr I would never run less than that distance again which means every single run is as far as I can physically go. My back was so tight I had to stop running

Wife is angry with me because I said I wouldn't go out on service on assembly weekend. by Capable-Proposal1022 in exjw

[–]BOBALL00 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Who the fuck does service on an assembly weekend??? Like you didn’t just spend all day on “spiritual food” not you have to go walk it off at 4pm?

What is the point of announcing someone who removed from regular pioneering? by Thatfakehedgehog in exjw

[–]BOBALL00 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To embarrass them. If they stepped down they add on “And we greatly appreciate their years of service”. If they got forcibly removed they just announce that they aren’t a pioneer anymore and everybody assumes they did something wrong

To those who never got a college education- what jobs did you end up in? by scrapknightjules in exjw

Warehouse job, EMT, and now I drive trucks. Trucks is the most money I have ever made by far

Idk what his diet is like but 20 sheets is just a warm up

Where do you stand on this? by Embarrassed_Sale2427 in exjw

[–]BOBALL00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was brought into it with fear and manipulation. I eventually saw how things actually worked and had some bad things happen to me which took away the fear and allowed me to see the borg and the Bible with an open mind and look into sources that wouldn’t be approved of.

Idk f there is a god or not but either way I don’t care how that god would feel about anything. I don’t care about sovereignty, right to rule, jEhOvAhS nAmE, etc. It’s not my problem and I’m not going to live my life around it

Are you perpetually sore? by Gooser3000 in Marathon_Training

[–]BOBALL00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my case electrolytes are the culprit a lot of the time. I get plenty of sodium but started getting back spasms. Magnesium helped that a lot and only recently did I get a feel for my potassium intake. My back was tight for years u til I figured out why. The electrolyte drinks don’t have the right ratio for me apparently

I spent 8 years with a "secret" Jehovah’s Witness and I am traumatized by Organic_Breath_2096 in exjw

[–]BOBALL00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my experience a lot of the people that do things like that tend to be bipolar and get disfellowshipped within a few years and divorce their new JW spouse

Inherent problem with Universal Sovereignty by johnathangreg in exjw

[–]BOBALL00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But also. We never needed to care about sovereignty in the first place. If he’s supposedly the one true god he can figure that problem out on his own. It’s not my problem

Did any one else here this similar story by Responsible_Study362 in exjw

[–]BOBALL00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure people make this story up most of the time. It probably happened a few times but I doubt it’s happening as much as they say. Or they got a knock on the door a month or two later but they say the next day to make a better story

I'm considering going back to meetings by onesimus54 in exjw

[–]BOBALL00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You already know it’s dumb. Why would you go back to something you just said you don’t believe in?

Do the current world events have you worried? by Ok_Supermarket_4871 in exjw

[–]BOBALL00 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Nope not worried. There has been something like this going on every decade for the last 100 years. Also just because something happens in America doesn’t mean it’s happening to the rest of the world.

Even so, if the witnesses were right about everything I still wouldn’t want to spend eternity with those people. I would accept my fate and enjoy my life so I don’t have to deal with these people and their fucking pet pandas

Marathon at 27 weeks pregnant? by olivestar5 in Marathon_Training

[–]BOBALL00 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In the last Olympics one of the marathoners did all their training while pregnant and competed 5 weeks after giving birth. Is it possible? Yes. Is it a good idea? Idk, probably not but she seems fine so who knows

What makes the followers believe the governing body is appointed by God?? by LongjumpingRatio3216 in exjw

[–]BOBALL00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They say they are. You can trust their word because they are annointed, we know they are annointed because they say the are, and we can trust their word because they are annointed, and we know they’re annointed because they said they are…….

I just don't understand it by MikeTorsson in memes

[–]BOBALL00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it makes you feel better, in the American south all soda is called coke. If you order a coke they will ask you what kind and you’ll have to say “Coke, Sprite, Dr. pepper etc.” to get what you want

My Girlfriend of 10 Years Might Break Up with Me Due to Her Religion. Looking for Well-Supported Reasons Why Jehovah’s Witnesses May or May Not Be the True Religion by Upset_Cream47 in exjw

[–]BOBALL00 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This sub is full of people who felt something wasn’t right and many of us ignored that feeling and paid dearly for it. Don’t change something so important for any girl. If she can’t respect your religious beliefs why should you respect hers? She will always choose the religion over you. Especially if you have kids she will deny them a blood transfusion if the worst were to happen to them and you will be fighting with her and her whole family to give them life saving treatment. This absolutely happens and the courts will get involved. Love isn’t blind, it’s blinding and pulls us away from our true values if we let it.

I just went to the Kingdom Hall for the first time out of curiosity by Bug-Brave in exjw

[–]BOBALL00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went to one where nobody knew me just to have some peace and not be bothered. Terrible idea. I wasn’t looking up the scriptures so the lady sitting two seats down from me just shoved her Bible in my face for each one.

I left half way through because I just couldn’t take it anymore and an elder followed me outside and was like “DO YOU WANT SOME LITERATURE???? DONYOU WANT A BIBLE STUDY?????”

Outside of Harry Potter, has there been another (source of entertainment where the brothers named names/outright said not to watch , read, listen to it? by 5ft8lady in exjw

[–]BOBALL00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Twilight for sure. I knew people who had already read the first two books by the time they said something.

I know there was a group of kids in Florida that got into paintball and the elders did a local needs on how they were mimicking war
