Egger will laugh at this....

Once had the local chapter JWs knock the door when I lived in Torpoint. 
 

It was back in the day when I didn’t really have anything like wife / child / business to occupy my “spare” time and I was ‘time rich’ 

 

A Sunday morning after a particularly enthusiastic drinking night before, answered the door in my crackers, bleary eyed, still pissed and notably disheveled to be confronted by a bloke in a cheap whistle & bird in tow. 
 

After the initial wave of panic - thinking it was CID and not quite sure what happened the night before - I realised it was JWs!

 

They opened their pitch with some old pony about damage to a local phone box and how terrible society had become. 
 

I thought, well that’s odd, there aren’t any phone boxes anywhere nearby. 
 

When pressed for the location, date and details of said damage they conceded that it was just a generic opening pitch. 
 

Right you cnuts, thinks I, you come here, wake me up and try preaching about the state of society when your opening pitch is knowingly and intentionally fictional.....

 

2 ½ hours I kept them there! I knew they were too polite (lame) to actually say “...we’ve got a right one here, lost cause, let’s do one...” 

 

It all fell apart for them with the misrepresentation at the opening pitch and went downhill very quickly when their (assumed superior) quotes from scripture were countered, at every point, by real life experience of having visited and studied most of the actual locations and stories they were trying to present. 
 

That’ll learn ‘em! Never saw ‘em again 😂

 

Have done similar in the past .  I cant for the life of me remember what it was but I caught him a bit of a conundrum that there was no way out of . They could not give me a definitive answer  so off they trudged .
