Jehova’s Witnesses just came to the door while my transgender polycule was playing Dungeons & Dragons.

I cannot. 😂

Idk what any of this means lol But they just left my house too and answering with a Negan bat saying "Lucille is thirsty she is a VAMPIRE BAT" works well in a pinch. 🫠

I read this as Jenova's witnesses. Honestly could get behind that.

deefin.bsky.social•53 days ago

That is awesome and hilarious!

jhan10n.bsky.social•53 days ago

No worldly blueberry pie for the JW.

annalyric.bsky.social•53 days ago

Please please tell me you invited them to join you 🤣

maxthyme.bsky.social•53 days ago

Have you heard about the original dm... Jesus?

theresistanceco.bsky.social•53 days ago

I usually tell them I worship Satan.

michaelbend.ing•53 days ago

JW: "do you know God's name?"

"Which one? Like Tiamat or..."

gandydancer1961.bsky.social•53 days ago

Ya know what? Just for this you get a follow from me. Too funny!

Jehovah's Witnesses came to your door. Clearly, your Stealth check of pretending not to be home was unsuccessful. ;)

thenewnucleus.bsky.social•53 days ago

Some Christians came knocking on the door years ago. My wife was like, wait, I can still go to heaven even if I’m a murderer if I just say I believe in Jesus. They were like, yeah, that’s what it says in this book. 😂😂😂

debbielough.bsky.social•53 days ago

My Dad used to *love* Jehovah's Witnesses.

He'd invite them in, give them tea, and then scare them silly.

goodbyeyall.bsky.social•53 days ago

I would have paid money for the look on their faces please tell me you have a recording doorbell

fuckswasticars.bsky.social•53 days ago

"Please, come in"

bryschmidt.bsky.social•54 days ago

I always say their gods aren't welcome in my home in a deep bass and slowly slam the door.

karickatlady.bsky.social•53 days ago

Quick! Roll for initiative!

ipaige.bsky.social•54 days ago

Did you invite them in for a tea. 😀

cupcakecollective.bsky.social•54 days ago

Did you invite them to play? 😂

dauntlessburgundee.bsky.social•53 days ago

Please continue..

dangosnell.bsky.social•53 days ago

I get Mormons. I think my parents put me on a list. I am always nice to them. I believe most people need religion. Could you imagine how horrible they would be without it?

guy-colorado.bsky.social•53 days ago

I have a bunch of bikes in my garage so I select that topic. Last time I asked them if they wanted tune-ups on their bikes.

breannewieler.bsky.social•53 days ago

We are all quick to dismiss the idea of making connections in any way possible - but this is what we need to do. Ask them to play. Show them your joy. It’s a lot harder to resist unmitigated joy 🥰

breannewieler.bsky.social•53 days ago

And I get it. It’s not easy. There’s a lot of history. But building bridges of any sort takes a monumental amount of bravery.

charliewhy.bsky.social•53 days ago

Did you have premade sheets ready to go and deal them in?

xsythe.bsky.social•52 days ago

Did you invite them to join?

soualexander.bsky.social•54 days ago

This is the future that liberals want

longgone1.bsky.social•54 days ago

You think liberals want Nazi fascists coming to their door to spread hate? I've been making them regret knocking on my door for decades.

novaf13.bsky.social•53 days ago

I prefer to draw them in, let ‘em get comfy, then ask why their sect of Christianity insists on following the Old Testament (Hebrew Bible) literally and the New Testament more like a series of suggestions. Isn’t Jesus found in the New Testament?

Time between JW/LDS visits? Minimum 7 years!

stormsurgetorosa.bsky.social•53 days ago

You can also ask them their thoughts on the trinity, or their ostracization practices.

novaf13.bsky.social•53 days ago

Ran out of room for the entire discussions … yes, I also stress that their bibles were translated from Hebrew and Aramaic to Greek to Latin, then to English from the 1600s by King James VI. I also remind them of the cultural differences from centuries’ old languages and modern linguistic uses.

m-w-b.bsky.social•53 days ago

...and then only because King James was hella gay and wanted the church off his back.

taradanger.bsky.social•53 days ago

This part. I was raised into and let me tell you, you DO NOT get a family if you don't swallow the Kool Aid. I mean, swallow, don't sip, don't ask what flavor it is, don't ask what other flavors there are, don't ask why they make other flavors if it's the only true kool aid. It's a cult.

stormsurgetorosa.bsky.social•53 days ago

I was in it from 8-17 because my stepfather pulled a prodigal son. Unfortunately for me that makes it easier for them to delude themselves into believing I'll wake up one day and want to come back.

erinstagg.bsky.social•53 days ago

Ok everyone - listen up! tell them you have been disfellowshipped. They are not allowed to talk to you after that because of their own rules. They might hand you a little brochure, but your house will be taken off the list. You are welcome.

hey-nunya-business.bsky.social•53 days ago

You... you are my favorite person right now.

I'm naming my next kid after you.

ryancoleman.ca•54 days ago

Did you at least give them a chance at a Charisma roll? 🤣

griefandhope.bsky.social•53 days ago

Fun fact: D&D was written by a JW. But they can’t play it because demons. Anyway I bet that was interesting.

mikecornes.bsky.social•53 days ago

What did you roll to summon those demons?!

saintofbouncers.bsky.social•53 days ago

Anent JW's: I used to have this little toy megaphone that made a person talk like Pinhead from the movie 'Hellraiser 1.' And yes. Oh, yes I said quite a few things behind that front door. Sometimes they left smoking shoe-tracks

grokmilk.bsky.social•53 days ago

I let people tell me about the thing they're passionate about (Jesus, robots, art), as long as they accept that their passions don't have to be my passions. I've also spoken to some very progressive JWs.

sequinste.bsky.social•54 days ago

If only you’d had a real dragon with you when you answered the door 🐉

fizzixrat.bsky.social•53 days ago

Did you convert them? 🤭

ali-wtf.bsky.social•53 days ago

That's delightful! 😄

rickoder.bsky.social•53 days ago

See if they want to play Clerics of Jehovah.
Could be a Chance to witness to them about...
Well, whatever you got.

kat-the-pq.bsky.social•53 days ago

The final boss fight the DM just wings

greywarlock.bsky.social•54 days ago

There's a Jehovah's Witness in my D&D game I run for trans/queer young adults in the basement of my trans polycule home. We can help these poor souls. ^.^

guy-colorado.bsky.social•53 days ago

You should tell them a knock knock joke. It's their favorite.
