4. Funny you should mention that on this day...
... after 5 years w/o setting foot inside a "Kingdom Hall", the Jehovah's Witnesses are disfellowshipping me this very evening. I have a feeling I'll know when I'm being shunned. I have every intention to make it very uncomfortable for the shunner.

Welcome me to "the world", brothers and sisters ;-)

6. Some Ways You Can Make Shunning Uncomfortable for the Shunner
#1. "Howdy good neighbor...read any good stories in the bible lately?"

#2. "Hey There...hey hey hey hey hey...Are you still talking to me?"

#3. "Wait...you...Hey...yeah you...you wanna drink a beer and talk about it?"

#4. Carry a mirror...run up to the shunner and stick it in their face!

#5. Carry a sign with tape on it and paste it on the shunner's back. Sign says: "I'm a freaking shunner...beware of me!"

#6. As they turn their back say in a nanana voice "I know something you don't know!"

#7. Consider a shirt that says..."If you can read this...you're not shunning me!"

8. Look at it this way...now you're free to celebrate! You can come over to
my house for a nice celebration - like ground hog day or something. :-)

Good Luck

11. Really? I feel insulted ...
I left 20 years ago and nobody noticed! And welcome to "The World", my friend. :)
