AtomD posted:I had a tour of one of the Jehovah's Witnesses' major offices a year or so ago (the result of a conversation that did not go as planned), but let me tell you this: If the Taliban had the organizational coherence that the Jehovah's Witnesses' have then I wouldn't have been able to write this post. I would've been limping along in agony trying to remember what happened. If the taliban, a group you did not visit, was different, then the group you did visit - the Jehovah's Witnesses, which would not be different at all in this hypothetical world, would have treated you differently, and as a result of this, you would have come home limping? How the hell do I even parse this? Do you mean to say if the Jehovah's Witnesses wished you ill, like the Taliban does, that you would have been slightly wounded but not killed? Because they're incompetent? This is the best I can do your post is really confusing.

It took me a long time staring at that to even realize what it was supposed to be. It's a kitty...or maybe a bunny? Edit: Actually, it's easier to see as a thumbnail.

Got a flyer down here in Arrowtown too. From Norway to New Zealand, truly a global effort by the Jehovahs Witnesses.

Jehovah's Witnesses ONLY celebrate Passover and they keep track of attendance as a sign of encouragement. The Watchtower Society tells them that they need to tell every person about it and produces these invites. It is organized to get this sort of attention in hopes people will learn more and convert.

DiverTwig posted:So is there just a lot of us living in the east bay? Got one on my door a few days ago. If they're all in the same area, and all directing us to the same place, we should have a goon meet at this thing. Charlotte NC, the people always come by and slide it through the door are Hispanic. Every Saturday they ring the bell three times, I watch them and then I see the pamphlet come sliding through.

If we're calling famous people out from the image, the guy right above Kate Mulgrew is James Woods with a beard.

Sir Lemming posted:I almost got one of those a few days ago too (Long Island), but I politely turned it down. It's a Jehova's Witness thing, in case anyone was wondering. It's billed as "a memorial service for Jesus". (Since I'm a Christian of non-specific denomination I just said it doesn't make sense to have a memorial for someone who's alive. Then everyone in the theater stood up and applauded.)

Serious hardcore gaming going on here. Looks like the 4th dimension has always been around us disguised as the 3rd. From this kickstarter for the smartphone device you've been waiting for all your life.

Its just perfect down to the smallest detail. The vanity plate, the remember frame, the "respectful" depiction of the death of hundreds of people forever on a truck tailgate...art. Edit: plus this fucker cut in line at the garage, the prick

Any 9/11 memorabilia/memorial stuff is tacky, that's a given, but anyone else find it SUPER tacky (and bordering on offensive?) to have representations of the actual attack? Like...ok, crying eagle, flag, and that iconic firefighter flag image, I get that...but actually having an image of what is the second tower about two seconds after the plane hit? Uhh...seems a little weird. Like...that's thousands of people dead in that "painting" right there.
