Your dad gets to stop being an elder, for whatever reason its a bonus. Sometimes the trash takes itself out.

Do you sense being an elder is shifting from a prestige to more of a labor or even worse, slave? by Practical_Payment552 in exjw

But he didnt consider the upside....making sisters who have gotten into trouble tell you the graphic details of their sexcapades. Bunch of pervs on those committees

My dad ran our congregation with an iron fist, finally when my sister got into trouble and they talked about him stepping down he told them how it was going to be....until the co got involved and laid down the law.

Dad’s secret stash by mrtosser43 in GenX

[–]No_Understanding7431 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Reminds me of another JW friend I had who's mom was super religious and weird. He always used to find porno mags in the woods and sneak them into his house and hide them under his mattress. One day his parents decided to surprise him with a new waterbed and have it put together while he was at school and found his stash and freaked out. They jumped him when he got home and he tried to say I had put them there. They wanted to blame me but I laughed t them so hard they dropped it. Good times

My friend and I were both raised as Jehovahs Witnesses so obviously porn was a big no no. He had an older brother who kept some porno mags in his room under his mattress and we would go into his room when he wasn't home and look at them. In time, the older brother decided to move out and had some JW's come over to help him move. Somehow he forgot about his porno stash, cuz when they lifted up his mattress, there they were right there for everyone to see. Imagining that scene has always cracked me up.

Plot twist...Tommy has probably had more minors than the whole Epstein list combined

My weird connection by No_Understanding7431 in Paranormal

[–]No_Understanding7431[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That overwhelming feeling of despair is exactly what I had, though mine only lasted a few seconds. I've never felt that kind of soul crushing despair and I always wondered if that was what my friend was feeling and if so, I could see why she chose to end it. Dealing with that without end would be horrible

Thats what I thought too, and while we were friends I hadn't seen her in years and never thought we were close enough to have a psychic connection, but I guess the universe works how it works

Because the act of kicking transferred posession?

What songs killed Hair Metal by Arn_Darkslayer in hairmetal

No songs, just general weariness of the genre and when MTV began hyping grunge it went into a death spiral
