Re: Bullbaiting vs. ashtrays. Right. The original topic was ashtrays. Let's go back to the original topic.
Re: Bullbaiting vs. ashtrays. Soljenitsyne, I could see your saying that if I had defended the tech, but I did not, in fact, do so. I agree that this would be off topic for such a forum. Plus, the tech's just not my bag anymore. And, yeah, being asked to yell in a basement of an org or mission did seem pretty funny to me back when I used to do the drill. I mean, come on. Student is screaming "stand up" "sit down on that chair." to an ashtray. At the time, I found it amusing. And, though you may not approve of my saying so, looking back, it seems funny, now, too. Lots of things (Scn/CofS) seem funny now, including some stuff that seemed deadly serious at the time but doesn't seem that way anymore.
Re: Bullbaiting vs. ashtrays. I don't unederstand you, but I like you. I mean : I enjoy your presence. I wouldn't challenge you if I didn't care.
Re: Bullbaiting vs. ashtrays. See my post #159. Gotta challenge you on this one and call it like I see it. Just take a moment and consider that it might be You that doesn't understand. I say that respectfully. Most of all, this thread should end. There are major issues occuring worldwide that need attention.
Re: Bullbaiting vs. ashtrays. Oh, that really is nice. (not being sarcastic) I would like to talk to you.
Re: Bullbaiting vs. ashtrays. See . . . . dude may have a point, but ultimately, super-cereal and annoying. I'm off to address major issues on a global scale. (installing concerned frown and ponderous chin stroke). May even find time for a sammich.
Re: Bullbaiting vs. ashtrays. okay then. go off and contemplate the debate of bullbaiting vs ashtrays: "fun or funny"?
Re: Bullbaiting vs. ashtrays. It's saturday night muppet, lighten up and go polish your chanology medals or finish that dissertation about DM's childhood. Meanwhile, on another tab, i'll be having a laugh. Sorry if my life doesn't revolve around chanology, i keep forgetting it's top priority in the world today. Didn't realise this was now a fanatics only site.
Re: Bullbaiting vs. ashtrays. That's exactly what I was saying : I don't understand her. No. This thread shouldn't end. It's the fastest growing thread in the world. It's the reincarnation of prehistoric sacred threads.
Re: Bullbaiting vs. ashtrays. People who participate to discussions they hate, they are like people who yell at ashtrays when they want ashtrays to stop flying all around the place like stupid. Tonight, this thread is 6th on the Most Viewed Threads (in last 14 days) list. From a prepared list. Prepared list.
Re: Bullbaiting vs. ashtrays. A list, list, list. Oh is it time for assessment now? Or listing and nulling? I don't even really get what the point of the latter one is but I'm sure it's utterly, utterly, utterly important. XD Maybe we could advertise our ashtray yelling at tables as Anonymous Stress Relievers lol. XD
Re: Bullbaiting vs. ashtrays. Not this. You might know that - an a couple of others might agree with you; but most of us know that you're wrong here. This. Soljenitsyne, sometimes you are quite close-minded - or at least appear so - you are at least very quick to judgement from quite a strict/refined worldview. And this. Mmmm, super-cereal - brb, kitchen. This!
Re: Bullbaiting vs. ashtrays. So before people here got hooked in and manipulated into defending and attacking individual posters what subject was this thread going to be about?
Re: Bullbaiting vs. ashtrays. Did anyone ever superglue the ashtray to the table? How about upping the intensity using smoldering butts and a strobe light?
Re: Bullbaiting vs. ashtrays. Or better, a strong rare-earth magnet in the ashtray and an electro-magnet coil in the chair. Wait until the subject is really getting into it, then turn on the coil to make the ashtray fly.
Re: Bullbaiting vs. ashtrays. It would be very bad if people rang up the orgs asking about courses and whether they would, eventually, after enough courses be able to move ashtrays with the power of their mind and if so could they have that in writing in advance of taking any courses.
Re: Bullbaiting vs. ashtrays. Meh, they have a CYA policy that staff members (or even Hubbard!) can't promise anything. See Scientology Policy Directive 13 March 1996, Statements by Staff Members.
Re: Bullbaiting vs. ashtrays. Hell, why not just put a mirror in front of your face? They'd be yelling at themselves XD Amusing, and just as effective as an ashtray... Thou some protesters may want to refrain from carrying them... Myself included ^^' I doubt I'll be able to successfully attend a protest, as if anyone gets up in my face, I have this teency weency little problem of... Well... The ashtray/mirror, I would feed it to them. ^^
Re: Bullbaiting vs. ashtrays. Don't need one. But I could use either a new ashtray or a pair of zircon encrusted tweezers...
