I don't procrastinate. I intentionally wait until the last minute because then I will be older, and therefore wiser. Bill Underwood

I reckon you'll have to group short jokes in with blonde jokes. Some people are just sensitive. Now I'm both short and summer blonde and I find both funny. Now bald jokes are fighting words. 😂

Bottom line, The Branch does not promote any social media internet site and warns of the spiritual danger of frequenting such sites. However they do not make rules and it is a personal decision to be a member or not. I have personally been raked over the coals for being a member of Jwtalk by my elders but they also said it was a personal decision. If one is aware of the dangers it can be an encouraging place to visit. In one of the Cong. I was in, our Book Study conductor was Apostate for years before he walked away with his family from the Truth. On JWTalk as soon as Apostates are identified as such they are banned or made a Former Member without delay. We do not spend years, days or even hours waiting to keep the site clean. This also goes for trouble makers who only want to argue and cause disunity. If one is not here to encourage others or to get help and support maybe they are in the wrong place. That said, like in any Cong. on earth you will find all of the friends at different levels of spiritual maturity. Thus on occasion you will come across off the wall comments and wonder if they are really JW's or not. Look for the positive and you will be encouraged, look for the negative and you will be discouraged. Have you ever been in a car group where one person is always negative, talking continually about their ills and troubles. It takes a brave person to turn the negative into a positive, be that person.

Don't we have a clear position from Jehovah on Idolatry? It was only pagan intrusion into the Christian Congregation that let birthday celebrations seep in.

If you put teabags in your shoes it will absorb the odor and your shoes will smell great but the tea tastes so awful it almost isn't worth it.

A truck loaded with Vicks Vaporub overturned of the highway... Amazingly, there was no congestion for 8 hours.

This is a personal choice IMHO. I personally leave flowers on a family grave but others in the family do not.

Some people, my mother included, have to have their keys taken away/disappear.

While he mentioned nationalism or religious reasons to avoid toasting. One occasion where it might not offend is at a wedding reception wherein the bride and groom toast as they share a glass of wine. Some in the audience might also find it non-offensive to toast the bride and groom. At a wedding anniversary dinner is another occasion. Motive in both occasion might be the determining factor.

That's bad because the sister broke her ankle on the front door stoop trying the find the guy at home again.

Our six-year-old handed us a note. His teacher had called my wife and I in for an emergency meeting. We asked our son if he had any idea why, and he said, "She didn't like a drawing I did." We went in the next day. His teacher pulled the drawing below out and said, "I asked him to draw his familv and he drew this. Would you mind explaining?" "Not at all." my wife said.

A husband and wife were fast a sleep one night when a loud knock echoed through the house. The husband groggily rolled over and glanced at the clock, 3:30 A.M. and grumbled his way downstairs to see who could possibly be at the door. When he opened it there stood a drunk man, swaying slightly with a sheepish grin on his face. "Hey there. buddy," the stranger slurred. "Can you give me a push?" The husband scowed, "Are you kidding me? It's half past three in the morning. Go Home." And with that he slammed the door and stomped back up stairs. Climbing into bed he told his wife what happened. She sat up and gave him the look. "Dave," she said "that wasn't very nice. Remember when our car broke down in the rain and you had to knock on a stranger's door for help? What if he had told you to get lost?" Feeling guilty Dave sighed, got dressed, grabbed his shoes, and even gathered some tools ready for whatever car trouble the man might have. He opened the door and called out into the Dark. "Hey, you still need that push?" A cheerful voice replied, "yes please." Where are you?" Dave shouted. The drunk answered,
