OK, so I did stand up for a living for about three years. I was alright, but not great. Didn't have that spark of genius. But this guy, who doesn't look particularly charismatic, kept an audience on the string for TWENTY FREAKING MINUTES while he told three different stories with just one tie up punch line at the end. Freaking brilliant.

if you did it for a living and made enough money to stay that as your job, you did great. i know dozens of people who will never escape san jose or ever get paid.. just cuz you gave up on it means nothing. you can do it again anytime you please. the rest of your life if you just grab a mic and tell one joke youre right back into it again. and open mics are always welcoming..

[@ince55ant]

Thats a really great piece, i love the way it all ties together. like the setup of going from religious to non at the start leading to having himself contending with his own religion and the shit going on around him. slowly developing from finding out about gossip to hanging out with someone with a more morally loose perspective. Then finally realizing someone else who started in the same place he did has gone down a much darker path than he could previously have imagined... The whole thing is just this great, complex parable for loosing religion or any belief really. No rules are real, your perception of reality is flawed.

It is though, thats true. Dogmatically, it is just another christian cult (they're all cults btw), that involves a doomsday scenario that has nothing to do with reality. The only thing that distinguishes JWs among other christian cults is that it is highly structured, deeply organized, and very insulated and controlling. In other words, its the management and structured organization that makes it seem special, otherwise, its the same biblical shit, just way better enforced.

Because of the principals you're raised with mostly the kids will turn out alright in terms of avoiding drugs alchol and such vices as well as some criminal tendencies, conducts that some people struggle for years but can leave behind when they come into the congregation.

every time my dad sees a black car that isn't usually at our neighbors house, he comes in my room and says, "don't go into the living room because the witnesses are at Doug's. I'll be in my room."

Single-handedly the best intros on any KZbin channel!

These stories are amazing.

I was raised by an unmedicated Paranoid-Schizophrenic Apostolic/Pentecostal Single Mother in the Florida swamp. Any time I managed to scrounge up enough money to buy a small TV from the resale store, it would take about 3 days for her get herself worked up enough to cut the cord off it and hide it in the woods while I was at school. One time I managed to find one that she had hid before it got rained on. I cut the cord off of a lamp to splice it on to the TV. I got the bright idea that if I plugged the cord in first, I could figure out the polarity by touching the bare wires together. ...It didn't go well. I almost got electrocuted to death trying to watch Steve Urkel.

I love the amount of Jehovah's witnesses in the comments saying like. "These are the only JW jokes I can relate to!" And here I am, everything flying over my head while I'm thinking, "wow...I'm Jewish."

Dakon The Messenger there are no JW’s in the comments. Just people who went to a building.

That was the best story by far on this channel.

[@ninjaofslo]

Yeah, I was told that exact same thing. Calling it a doomsday cult is way too accurate. Jeez.

The genius/savant who became an enforcer is a testament to how much the people you are surrounded with lift or push you down

I was raised a JW and left in my 20's. I'm 30 now, and very happy having been both physically and mentally out for 10 years. In no small part, this was thanks to one book in particular. For anybody struggling as a JW, or those who have family members or friends who are still JW's I would highly recommend "The Believing Brain" by Dr. Michael Shermer. It got me out of the cult, and into the skeptic movement. It helped me move from insane cult/ conspiracy thinking to studying and applying rationalist/ scientific methodology and logic. I sincerely hope this book helps somebody as much as it helped me! If you have any questions, please ask, I would love to help anybody struggling with the mental shackles imposed by the cult, and how I broke free. (Side-note: If anybody is interested, I wrote Dr. Shermer an open letter thanking him for helping me break free of the cult in which I detail my story further. It should be the first result if you Google "An open letter to Dr. Michael Shermer")
