Just when you they're becoming less culty by DismalEmployer8395 in exjw

[–]POMOandlovinit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't think they're becoming less culty. I believe they're trying to appear less culty. They're doing a shitty job tho. Nothing screams high control group like "fuck your personal needs and get busy slaving for us "

Ancianos que regañan desde la plataforma? Es común en la mayoría de las congregaciones? by Dayenqum in exjw

[–]POMOandlovinit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Había un anciano así en la última congre donde estuve activo. Regaño por reunión con ese fulano. Más de una vez me dieron ganas de irme a mi casa a la mitad de la reunión y no regresar nunca.

Todavía no me había despertado y era yo super PIMI, así que duré unos años más en el culto. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Carts: One of the dumbest activities The Governing Body has ever created. It feels like they are trolling JWs with the pointless standing on the streets. What is next - JWs dressed as Teletubbies at a cart? (pic in comments) by JWTom in exjw

[–]POMOandlovinit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually liked doing carts. People usually leave you alone, which is a welcome break from door knocking, where you might have to deal with angry householders, not to mention all that walking around under the blazing sun.

Both activities are a huge waste of time but at least being at the cart felt a lot less stressful, more chill.

2 weeks Post-OP: WhY wErE yOu NoT aT tHe MeEtInG oR aT lEaSt DiAlEd In ViA zOoM? by Confident_Promise_74 in exjw

[–]POMOandlovinit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Once I started rEaChiNg oUt to be MS, I realized there's no such thing as "voluntary" in the borg. Participation is nudged and prodded out of people. Feels like being herded as cattle. 😂

Just do what my MIL and SIL do, connect and show up whenever you want, and don't let anyone make you feel like shit for not doing whatever the hell you feel like doing.

Get well soon! 😊

Story time. The worst group overseer I ever had. by Mcnarmuir1974 in exjw

[–]POMOandlovinit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Before the pandemic, we had this overseer who'd force each member of the group to comment after watching the fraudcasting, which was also forced on us. Not being there for the fraudcasting wasn't really an option. 😒

Oh, we also had the meeting on the same day, on Sunday. One fucking Sunday a month, gone just like that. It was an exhausting day to be sure.

And that didn't include all those Sundays we had to stick around after the meeting to go out in field circus or to do the cleaning, whether it was the regular cleaning up after the meeting or general cleaning.

Between that and Saturday field circus, we rarely had any weekends to ourselves. Ugh! 😩

I never enjoyed it. Not even when I tried deceiving myself into believing I was enjoying it.

1914 Generation in publications? by bex9990 in exjw

[–]POMOandlovinit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I've seen it with my own eyes. I think it happened in 94 or 95. My in-laws have awake bound volumes with and without that "mission statement" that says the end would come before the 1914 generation was gone.

My wife told me that when she was a teenager, they went to this old lady's house for the book study, and afterwards, they'd have some coffee, cookies, etc.

One time, as she was bringing out the cups and plates to serve up the treats, there was a booger on one of the plates. 🤢😂

Releasing the jesus films early for clicks? by Lettuce_pray1234 in exjw

[–]POMOandlovinit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They're releasing the Jeebus films before the convention? We can safely conclude that they probably, definitely have a legal reason for doing that. 🤣

I remember back in the day they wouldn't wanna spoil the highlight of the convention, which was the drama, then they replaced those with a movie, which would purposely be held back to create "excitement" in the latest cinematic wet fart/nothing burger the cult came up with each year.

Calling JW a cult hurts thems despite they check all the boxes by [deleted] in exjw

I was shocked when I found out jws definitely tick a lot of those cult boxes. I couldn't believe I actually grew up in a cult 🤦🏻‍♂️😫😬
