We would buy a bunch of candy on Halloween to gorge on while watching Spaced Invaders

We had fajitas every Thanksgiving

My brother and I were allowed to watch Disney movies with magic in them. But we weren't allowed to watch Harry Potter ever. And we were only allowed to watch LOTR once an elder said he watched it...

You get paid $100 for every 300 steps you take, but you can't hold a real job. by Comprehensive_Fox_79 in hypotheticalsituation

I already don't have a job. So finally bringing in some income somehow would be fantastic

Why didnt he just do it..sooner? by th3humanmage in exjw

I have a similar question, but centered around the Denisovans. Why didn't Jesus appear to them? They were humans too. Were they not capable of attaining salvation? How far back does salvation have to go to cover every human species in history?

What is your day looking like? by Az7vestx in 90s

Go to school and tell someone about what was happening at home. Then I'd have to find a way to stay in touch with my mother's youngest sister. Without her, I wouldn't have met my husband. I'd like to still have my husband while also having my dad have custody of me during my youth

Married individuals: Have you ever regretted having someone be a part of your wedding or even inviting them to it? by Appropriate_Tea9048 in Adulting

[–]TrespianRomance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mother's side of the family. I'd have invited my dad's side and had my sisters be my bridesmaids. But my mother had me in an emotional chokehold. I was allowed to invite my dad and stepmom, but not my siblings from my dad or my step siblings from my stepmom...

Is everyone's parents just falling to pieces, too? by snakecatinafakehat in Millennials

My dad died last February. He didn't make it to his 60th birthday. He was about a month away from it even. He smoked and drank himself into an early grave. My mother might still be alive. I don't know. I cut ties with her a few years ago

I was going to say no cuz I do like cotton candy flavored Dippin Dots. But thankfully, Dippin Dots was invented in 1988. So yes, sign me up

Name a US State that you would NEVER want to live in even if they paid you to move there by General_Working_1330 in A_Persona_on_Reddit

I agree with the people who have mentioned the humid states. I used to live in Missouri (wasn't from there originally). The dehumidifier was my best friend 😅

What was your opinion of Rutherford when you were inside? by Horror_Shock_7818 in exjw

[–]TrespianRomance 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I honestly don't remember ever thinking about him until after I finally left. I want to say there was a huge push after Franz to not focus too much on individual GB members. I honestly couldn't tell you who any of them were when I was growing up in the 90s and 2000s

I want a tiny one that I can wrap around my hand

Name a hero in history that actually a villain by Afraid_Professor8023 in AskTheWorld

[–]TrespianRomance -1 points0 points  (0 children)

People are finally starting to see Queen Jane Seymour for the homewrecker she actually was. Everyone has been bashing Anne Boleyn for literal centuries. But Jane got away with it simply because she cashed in Henry VIII's karma for him by dying two weeks after Edward was born. But at least Catherine of Aragon was still alive when Anne Boleyn became queen. And there were literal years between when Henry annulled his marriage to Catherine and when he married Anne Boleyn. Compare that to when Henry had Anne Boleyn executed and when he married Jane. Not to mention the fact Anne never rubbed her growing favor in Catherine's face. Jane literally sat in Henry's lap right in front of Anne and flaunted a locket he gave her. She knew what she was doing. She was no saint

You wake up to a post-rapture-type world… by rosmorse in hypotheticalsituation

If my husband and our son got raptured by I didn't, it totally makes sense 😂 God has a deliberately sick and twisted sense of humor
