Ever wonder how far


the white house

Ever wonder how far a Jehovah’s Witness would make it before somebody would whip out the taser ?

(The White House)

These guys might have a chance.

    My guess is the front gate. Unless, there was some sort of party the JW could crash.

  2. gmc360 says:

    not far, everyone knows jo-jos are whack.

    • monkeyboy says:

      hey im a Jehovahs witness… dont push it

      • Dhoti the anti EWAdamsist says:

        I would think that visiting a site like this would get you instantly marked…

      • Er, you might want to skip out for the rest of this one then. It’s probably gonna get kinda ugly.

      • mabsba says:

        Maybe if you all didn’t go around bugging people at home all the time, you wouldn’t receive this kind of flack. As you sow, so shall you reap.

        • tuga2 says:

          u retard sory for saving your life fine i wont visit u and u can die i dont give a dam

          • mabsba says:

            Thanks! Glad to make it onto the ‘do not call’ list.

          • Wino says:

            How do I get on this list – please leave me alone. I can be profane and even use criticisms other than ‘retard’.

            • mabsba says:

              Mwuhahahaha. They only put one person on it per day. Maybe tomorrow will be your day. :twisted:

              • mabsba says:

                *sigh* I know. But it’s just ridiculous that I have to be verbally abusive to someone just to get them to stop ringing my doorbell.

                • shortright the ivanist who thinks clothes are overrated says:

                  they showed up to our house on christmas morning about 15 years ago… they’ve never been back yet. something about mom answering the door holding a giant butchers knife asking if they couldn’t see the fcuking tree and lights on the outside of the house…

                  i guess that puts you on the “do not call” list as well.

                  • shortright the ivanist who thinks clothes are overrated says:

                    (as an aside: i know a few perfectly “normal” JW’s. they don’t go door to door and practice their religion in privacy just like most christians/jews/etc do. you’d never know their religion unless you get into a pretty deep conversation with them. not all of them are the nuts “ringing your doorbell to preach at you” types.)

                    • There are perfectly normal people in pretty much every religion, no matter how whacked out it might seem. We make fun of Mormons a lot on here too (btw, if you don’t capitalize Mormon, Firefox gets pissed at you), but I knew some pretty cool Mormons in high school.
                      I also knew some pretty weird ones who we started to make friends with…until they declared they wanted to have a threesome with my wife. How about no????

                  • slupine says:

                    That’s okay. A friend of mine wasn’t close to the door when a group of them knocked.

                    Her doberman, on the other hand, was.

                    She hasn’t heard from them since. rofl

                    Dog was perfectly friendly, just huge and looked pretty scary when she barked.

                    • shortright the ivanist who thinks clothes are overrated says:

                      and that’s half the reason i’m getting a rottweiler… they’re perfectly friendly, but a wonderful deterrent to people coming up the house unwanted.

                • Wino says:

                  I don’t think it was the Jw’s it was another group, but they came to my door a number of times and I told them that I couldn’t talk then, but if they came back at blank time I would love to talk. I would always schedule these meetings for when I knew I would be at work (my roomate kind of hated me after this). I did this for nearly a month with these two guys before they gave up. If they are going to waste my time, I feel that I have the moral right to waste theirs.

                  • shortright the ivanist who thinks clothes are overrated says:

                    if it was 2 younger guys (usually white) wearing black pants, white shirts, black ties and carrying black backpacks… then they were mormons on mission.

                    we get lots of mormons around my neighborhood. they’re usually well meaning… doesn’t make me want to talk to them anymore than the JWs though.

                    • Mandy says:

                      I was told that the “mission” was nearly mandatory (strongly recomended) for all JW males and optional for females. I was also told by a JW work mate that they have to pay their own way the whole time they are on mission. It can be pretty costly and you have no pick in where you go. My work friend had to go to New Mexico to preach to the Native Americans on reservation out there.

                      • shortright the ivanist who thinks clothes are overrated says:

                        that sounds mostly like mormons… not JWs. i went to HS with 15 mormons (2 families) and all the males went on mission before they went to college. the girls went to college and they ended up marrying guys 3-4 years older than them because they were all in the same classes once the guys returned from mission.

                        and yes, they do get sent ANYWHERE. the older brother of one of my friends was sent somewhere in the amazon. as for paying on their own, not so much – the temple pays for most of their stuff…

                      • I’m with Shortie, that sounds like Mormons. JW’s have what they call Pioneering (not really sure what that is), but it’s not mandatory. Oh, and don’t get the idea that all JW’s are against having parties. I just went to a 50th anniversary party for my wife’s uncle and aunt who are JW’s, and man, was the beer and wine flowing at THAT gathering!

                      • Mandy says:

                        My bad. I thought they were the same thing. In that case he was a Mormon. He doesn’t work with me anymore so I can’t ask him to clarify.

                  • justacanuck the booty wench says:

                    Probably Mormons. At least they send out nice looking young men (in my neighbourhood at least). Sometimes I’m tempted to invite them in. :twisted:

            • justacanuck the booty wench says:

              Me too, me too! I’m a witch, I’ll turn you into a newt!

          • I wasn’t aware that my life needed to by saved. I’ll take my chances on my own, thanks. Wait, you can’t understand me, um, I’ll translate: ill tak mi chanses and u suk thanx

          • Aremis says:

            tuga, a few things of note:

            1. Calling someone a retard is probably not an effective method for ‘witnessing’
            2. You’re inability to even spell internet shorthand correctly really doesn’t support your assertion that we’re the ones lacking in intelligence
            3. The JW party crashing thing is a logical snowball combining the JW stereotype with recent events, not a comment on JW party crashing habits. I doubt anyone thinks JW’s are heavy partiers.
            4. From your point of view, you are just spreading the word. From everyone else’s, you’re just interrupting their evening. I’m sorry if you’ve been mistreated over that detail, but that’s life.

            • dissimilitude says:

              1. Calling someone a retard is probably not an effective method for ‘witnessing’

              While this is perfectly true, it also cracked me up. :-D

          • Nött'z says:

            Next JW showing up at my door will be turned into stew! :)

      • tuga2 says:

        same we rule

  3. Fozzymaple says:

    I never thought of it, but now that you mention it…

  4. The Steve says:

    I’ll tell you one thing, if my office was in the same building as my bedroom I’d be pretty tempted to just show up in my pajamas!

    • paws4thot says:

      My sis does exactly this!

    • Lizzie says:

      We’ve had plenty of people do that. after a while you just stop noticing

    • clueless says:

      Ah, the joys of telecommuting. Most of my work gets done in my robe and slippers. I still have horrid flashbacks to the morning I got a crisis call while washing my hair. I was stark naked with shampoo running down my body. A puddle of water was forming into a foamy lake on the floor and I was on the phone trying to sound very professional and competent. It was exactly like the nightmares where you show up in public naked.

      • dissimilitude says:

        See, I think stuff like this is exactly why we don’t generally, and never will generally, have those Jetsons-style videophones. I, for one, am very glad of this.

      • Default User says:

        When I have that nightmare I usually settle for hopping no one notices. It works surprisingly well. Well, either they don’t notice, or they’re to polite to say anything.

  5. keithybabes says:

    The question is will they manage to sell Jesus or will they end up buying health care reform?

    • Sqwirk says:

      Well if the middle class converted to jehovahs-witness-ism we wouldn’t need health insurance reform since god would take care of them.

      • The Steve says:

        That’s the dumbest sh1t I’ve ever heard. Sorry, I’m a little sore on this subject right now, so prepare for a rant.

        Health care needs to be reformed. Here’s a prime example of why.

        My parents both work full time, my mom works 2 jobs neither with insurance, my dad does have health insurance. They live in Wisconsin, work in wisconsin, but my father’s company is based in Michigan, as is his health insurance.

        My little brother, age 22 was a full time student on winter break. He was diagnosed with gastric cancer. My fathers health insurance company will not cover the medical expenses unless my brother enrolls for the spring semester of college.

        This leaves them with 2 choices, pay $12,000 for a semester of school that he can’t attend to remain on my fathers insurance plan. Of course he would flunk out because he’s too sick to attend class, and even if he does recover would then not be allowed to finish his degree.

        Or, pay COBRA premiums of around $400 a month to keep him covered.

        WTF kind of bullsh1t is that? Sure, you have insurance until you get sick and then good luck! You’re on your own.

        Under Wisconsin law, he would remain covered on my parents policy. Unfortunately Michigan law allows them to drop his coverage since he’s not enrolling in school, even though the reason he’s not enrolling is because of the cancer.

        • Dhoti the anti EWAdamsist says:

          I wouldn’t be surprised if a few calls to the MI AG (and maybe a local news outlet near the company’s headquarters) would help — it’s worked before in these kinds of bureaucratic corner cases.

          Sorry to hear about your brother.

        • shortright the ivanist who thinks clothes are overrated says:

          steve… i work in insurance (as most of you folks know). what your parents should do is call the michigan DOI. there may be some clauses concerning full time student status and temporary medical disability… these aren’t things published in your normal SPD and it’s probable that the HR/benefits person at your dad’s office doesn’t even know about this sort of thing because it’s not something they’ll typically run into.

          what should happen is that your brother can take a medical leave of absence from school and still retain “full time student” status for up to 12 or 18 months for insurance purposes. also, his full time student status shouldn’t be based on a semester by semester basis… if he gave proof of full time student in august or september he should be covered until next august or september. full time student is nearly always done on a 12 month basis.

          i hope your brothers treatment goes well and that he/your parents don’t get screwed in the process.

          • The Steve says:

            Yeah, he is taking medical leave from school.

            We are working on what diss suggested above, although it would be nice not to have to resort to disability/medicare which could take up to 6 months to get going, when he should be covered.

            I’ll have to convince them to make a few more phone calls, it doesn’t seem right to me either but they assure me they’ve checked into it.

            • shortright the ivanist who thinks clothes are overrated says:

              before applying for social security disability, call the DOI. social security is a long tedious process but there may already be something in place…

              • dissimilitude says:

                I would absolutely second shortright’s suggestion to call the DOI! (If it does come down to an SSDI app, keep in mind that it seems almost everyone get denied initally, just plow ahead with the appeals process and make sure you’ve got sufficient documentation of everything. I’ve said before that a disembodied head in a jar would get denied the first time; they’d tell it to go work in telemarketing….)

                • The Steve says:

                  Will do. If it works anything like the DMV the hardest part will finding someone who works there that actually knows the rules!

                  • shortright the ivanist who thinks clothes are overrated says:

                    or speaks english…

                    • Default User says:

                      If you can convince him to have a heart attack in the SS office on the first visit, they will make the process as easy for you as humanely possible (as my uncle found out after he had his stroke)

              • FWIW, and mind you this goes back 20+ years, but I actually had a good experience with the Social Security office when my twins were born. Since I had just changed jobs my insurance wasn’t going to cover the medical bills. So we went to the Social Security Office and managed to get covered. It wasn’t that difficult and my wife (at the time) was able to keep seeing the same doctor. Of course I still had to make co-payments since I was working, but the cost came out to what I would have paid anyway.

        • oɹɹɐɥɔ says:

          The Steve, if there was anything I could do I would. I read everyone elses’ comments – I concur! I wish you and your family all my best.

      • viking gal says:

        That would be the Christian Scientists (mother church is in my state). If I recall correctly, Jehovah’s Witnesses do allow for medical treatment, but not blood transfusions?

        • mabsba says:

          I think that’s right because when my son was in the NICU (neonatal ICU), they wanted to know if we were Jehovah Witnesses because premies often need blood transfusions.

      • tuga2 says:

        ha ha yeah i a jehova whitness and i use health care u ignorant retard

  6. lowly grunt says:

    I haven’t the slightest idea what the caption is suggesting and really don’t care, but does anyone else think the White House looks a little pink?

  7. Lizzie says:

    Not to nit pick or anything but I think the white house is either on the no call list or we just write letters.

  8. Jane St.Clair Glamorous First Lady of PK says:

    We’ve secretly replaced the White House party crashers with Jehovah’s Witnesses… Let’s see if anyone notices.

  9. dissimilitude says:

    At this point I feel compelled to point out that while there is no “i” in “team”, there generally is one in “witness”…but not here.

  10. McLovin' says:

    Ever wonder how far a religion bashing troll would make it before somebody would whip out the taser ?

  11. teahee says:

    I got two teen JWs at my door once, I figured by telling them I am atheist they’d leave me alone and go bother my neighbor BUT NO. IT MADE THEM TRY HARDER.
    And they were wearing roller skates….. O___o

    People shouldn’t treat religion like it’s a product you can sell door-to-door anyway. If people are interested they’ll ask their friends or research online.

    Still…funny caption. I’d wager a meter at the most.

  12. umm... says:

    What the hell is a “Wtness”? Somebody needs to buy a vowel.

  13. interesting says:

    Just so everyone knows, “Tuga2″ – Not a JW. They wouldn’t give this this the time of day. Running down everyone who makes a joke, is exhausting and time-wasting. Most that I know just laugh it off without a second thought. Also, the use of personal attacks (“retard”, etc.) and what I think is an attempt at swearing (or maybe stopping up the flow, “dam”) Is quite out of character. I showed it to a buddy of mine, he laughed and said, “…at least to the serving line.”

    • mabsba says:

      Well, to be fair, you don’t know that. You are saying it’s out of character for the JWs you know, which is probably true. But one has to ask why else someone would go off on such a tirade?

  14. taylor a says:

    somebody needs to make that a flash game where u play the witness trying to get to the front door

  15. boo says:

    I don’t know, but can I be there when one tries? I’ve always wanted to tase one/see one of them get tased.
    Tag, you’re it!
