As someone who has had both alligators and JWs on my doorstep, I support this message.

THIS. Never had an alligator on my doorstep, although I've escorted a few off the property. That said, no alligator ever woke me up on a Saturday (with a hangover). The Jehovazoids on the other hand, they used to wake me up relentlessly. Alligators > Jehovah Witnesses

Answer naked. Would not recommend the same for the crocodiles.

Keep the alligators and you will solve you JW problem.

Oh man we got two in one day once. My brother got the first one and politely sent them away after 10minutes, and he told me to get the second one. Unfortunately, I really don't know enough about them to defeat them in an argument. I could have told them to fuck off I guess..

The alligator?

Okay, you just made me shoot seltzer water out my nose. I meant the cult members though.

I grew up in Florida. I can verify that this is factually accurate.

I still live in Florida. This shit happens too often.

Some of my friends in Europe say that JWs are pleasant enough people over there, keeping to themselves and being largely inoffensive. I'm jealous. :(

Well they ring doorbells here, too.

Well, laughed a bit too hard in the middle of a crowd of people. They didn't think the picture was as funny as I did.

Is that alligator using the mail slot as a gloryhole?

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

Aww! I grew up here! This pic is posted all over the place back home! Locals, including myself, would find gators on tennis courts, in horseback riding rings, pools, everywhere! You had to assume that ever little pond had a gator in it. Oh, and feeding marshmellows to the gators was banned because they were causing so much trouble for the golfers. Lol. Though I've moved on, I still miss it! HHI!

I live in Northern Saskatchewan and a JW came to my door once. I just tried quickly to get him off, by just answering "yeah, yeah, no" and not trying to engage in a conversation. He gave me two Watchtower magazines, which I looked over, and he was on his way.

I can eat the alligator. I cannot eat the Witnesses (nor can I make a stylish handbag from their skins.) Alligator: 1, JWs: 0.

The thing that worries me is that the gator seems to be reaching for a the doorbell. It knows.

So who is Jehova and what did "they" witness him doing? And yes, I would prefer an alligator...

[–]AlJoelson 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Jehova shot and killed a prostitute in Maine, and the witnesses agreed to lie under oath for Him, to keep Him out of the can.

Jehova's a pretty boy, he ain't built for the clink, man.

at least the alligator does not rape you before he kills you.

So this man walked into a bar with his alligator and asked the bartender:

"Do you serve JW's here?"

"Sure."

"Good. One beer for me and a JW for my alligator."
