Did you ever have somebody in your hall, that says the same thing to you every time you talk to them. They'll bring up some joke or story, every single time you see them. I have this new middle-aged brother in my hall, who when he first came to my hall, I thought he said this other brother's name was Ellen(it was really Allen).

So, okay, it was kind of funny the first time, but not really. But the first thing he says to me every time I see him is,"Sorry, I couldn't bring Ellen with me." Then he hits my arm and starts cracking up, like its the funniest thing in the world. I laugh, just cause its so strange, how much it tickles him. ANd then he walks away. And this happens at every meeting.

So anybody have somebody like this?

Also, I will do whatever the poll says next time I see him

We had this one brother who had some serious problems. He said that he used to just read everything he can get his hand on. I think he just went a little too far, if you know what I mean. We love him. But he can be so irritating. Like if were working on a hall building project, he just tries to take over and run the show. He talks to everyone like their idiots. I truly think that he dosn't know any better because of his problems, but he can be very annoying.

there is one sister in my old hall who EVERY time someone came into the meeting...all she says is "SO GOOD TO SEE YOU" shes a little spanish old lady but shes been in this country for like 30 years... and still has the thickest spanish accent in the world... cant even understand her half the time...RAH!...

modestjesse #12.1 modestjesseOG 2004

And you'll never see the hall get so quite unless she answers. Everyone stops what their doing to focus completely on what she's saying so they can try to understand.

punkprincess #12.1.1 punkprincessOG 2001

hahahahahahahahha! thats so true! but you can only catch like 2 out of 5 words and piece it together...

omegatweeter #12.2 omegatweeterOG 2003

punkprincess #11 punkprincessOG 2001

Theres a brother in my hall that comes up every meeting slaps me on the back and says nice to see your back.

modestjesse #10.1 modestjesseOG 2004

Welcome back! Glad you came back there!

omegatweeter #9 omegatweeterOG 2003

this reminds me of a drama i did for a congregation gathering. i played Shawn 'Love' Williams, he was pretty much a player in high school. so in the drama, i chase after a JW girl in the high school, so i say to her "you lookin all fine the way that you do," tryin to ask her out. and so the brother's wife, who helped coordinate this whole thing, always says that to me. she says she will never forget it. it's kinda old, but it doesn't annoy me. i guess i built up a tolerance for it.

modestjesse #9.1 modestjesseOG 2004

You should just say, "I know, you're looking mighty fine yourself, what do you say me and you" and then nudge her with her elbow while winking. ;)

omegatweeter #9.1.1 omegatweeterOG 2003

lol! i think she'd slap me in the face

modestjesse #9.1.1.1 modestjesseOG 2004

But she'd stop saying that after that one!

omegatweeter omegatweeterOG 2003

no, it's stuck in her head like a tattoo.

u should start signing the song "Oh! Ellin!" by Gob:

"Oh! Ellin! What can I do?
There's nothing aside from you . . ."

P.S. That song disturbs my essence

socalgal #7 socalgalOG 2003

just stare was my choice and keep silent, silence can make anyone uncomfortable

modestjesse #7.1 modestjesseOG 2004

Depends on the moment. Silence speaks many things.

perrin #7.2 perrinOG 2004

By not saying anything and not really responding it should let him now that it's so not funny anymore and to move on.

beachbum #7.2.1 beachbumOG 2002

it doesnt seem to work w/ bro. p though

jay79 #7.2.1.1 jay79OG 2001

yea true. I've even threatened to break the old guys hip and that hasn't worked either

perrin perrinOG 2004

Are you the one who put him in the hospital then? His jokes are bad I know but are they really that bad? Well ok maybe they are.

I'm always down with tickling as a sensible alternative to punching someone in the head. Granted, it's not as fun.

beachbum #6.1 beachbumOG 2002

stupid good sense. always gets in the way of the fun solution. grrrrr

perrin #6.1.1 perrinOG 2004

I still say that sucker punching everyone that played hockey would have made you feel a whole lot better especially after a certain someone bailed out on us.

beachbum #6.1.1.1 beachbumOG 2002

jimmy or aaron?

beachbum beachbumOG 2002

oooooooooohhhhh THAT. yeah. def deserving of punches from all.

perrin perrinOG 2004

No not them. I'm talking about someone that was there that left early. The PUNK!

beachbum beachbumOG 2002

see comment #41

perrin perrinOG 2004

ah my bad missed that I guess.

beachbum #5 beachbumOG 2002

man that was a tough choice. but i have to say there's nothing like a punch in the face to get your point across. hahaha

perrin #5.1 perrinOG 2004

Yeah well you would resort to violence Janine. Might I remind you whay your solution to my problem was.

beachbum #5.1.1 beachbumOG 2002

threaten to marry ronnie?

perrin #5.1.1.1 perrinOG 2004

I think I'm going to be sick. NO! Not that solution the other one.

D
deathtognomesOG 2004

Whats wrong with you marrying ronnie? I think you two would be good together.

perrin perrinOG 2004

That is just so wrong. I can't believe you just said that.

D
deathtognomesOG 2004

Go ahead Keep Denying the truth if thats what you want!

beachbum beachbumOG 2002

bill???

D
deathtognomesOG 2004

Please tell me you weren't calling me bill.

beachbum beachbumOG 2002 deathtognomes

well who are you then. sounds like a name bill would make up

modestjesse modestjesseOG 2004 beachbum

Think AC.

deathtognomesOG 2004 beachbum

I am Adam Crosbie.

beachbum beachbumOG 2002 deathtognomes

hey adam. i always forget you live in AH. i keep thinking it's still middletown

D
deathtognomesOG 2004 beachbum

Yeah I didn't even know i lived in AH for like the first 2 months i lived here. I'm right on the border.

beachbum beachbumOG 2002

nothing wrong w/ ronnie. it's part of a previous convo-ask mike.

perrin perrinOG 2004

I don't remember ever having a convo about her before and again even if that was the case that's not the convo I was walking about.

beachbum beachbumOG 2002

how to sway the service committee...

perrin perrinOG 2004

Oh yeah that I forgot all about that. Anyways that's not what I was refering to or the problem I was refering to. I meant the other one that you were going to solve for me by taking action. I believe you said a nice punch in the face would do the trick.

beachbum beachbumOG 2002

ahh i don't know what you meeeean.

perrin perrinOG 2004

refer to comment #52

perrin perrinOG 2004

I mean comment #55 bah.

thefunkyfresh #4 thefunkyfreshFounder

flomojopoanode #4.1 flomojopoanodeFounder

HEYYYYYYY, MATTTTTYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!....*gasp*

#4.2 jollycandymanOG 2001

the comments were witty the first time, then theyt turn to annoying, they you get upset if they dont say them

tinser #3 tinserOG 2002

When i had my job at the law firm...this one lady would always make fun of me because i worked only 2 days a week. Every single time she saw me, she'd say: "Well, look who it is! It must be nice to have your schedule!" ...it annoyed me so much

#2 toxicgirlOG 2003

These are excellent poll options. I actually voted for this one.

modestjesse #2.1 modestjesseOG 2004

I was stuck between two. I kinda wanted to vote for the tickle one too. But I took the I love you too.

perrin #2.1.1 perrinOG 2004

I was wondering who in their right mind would pick that one. Now it all makes sense.

modestjesse #1 modestjesseOG 2004

I think we've all got one of them. What is it about older me, why do we get so corny as we get older? I dread that.

perrin #1.1 perrinOG 2004

I have one in my hall. He opens with It's good to see me or some other lame joke like that everytime you see him.
