OK, so it *could* be the Japanese family across from us, as a psycho religion might be likely trap for someone who's new to the states, but I doubt it. And it's not Jeff, because he's a kinkster and wouldn't pull sick pranks like this.
It's the second time I've found Watchtower 'zines sitting on the banister end in the public stairwell. The first time, they sat untouched on the banister for almost a month before I noticed them and recycled them in a cleaning frenzy. My thought at the time was "eh, Christian propaganda, whatevs." Last night we went down to Jeff's place for some Role Playing and there, sitting in the same spot, where they most decidedly had not been that morning, were two more leaflets.
This time, I was so horrified, I exclaimed out loud to Justin, "Wow, more of the same religious bullshit!" before realizing that whoever put it there probably heard me through their front door. I'm still undecided as to whether this is a good or bad thing. Then I actually *looked* at what I was holding and whispered, "oh, shit, they're Jehova's Witnesses."
I expect that now, a silent war is waging. They will put their propaganda in the stairwell and I will dispose of it immediately. We will both enjoy our parts immensely, though neither of us will be the better for them.
Oh well, at least they have the tact not to knock on our door.

Hmm, anonymous blog comment spam...
it's like a whole world.
And articulate, too.
Thanks anon, but it'll be a LONG while before I feel the need to start reading "I'm a mommy, read about junior's poo and stuff, it's the best poo EVAR" blogs.
...with perhaps the exception of people I know who have squeezed one out already.

Postscript: In fact, I have seen Amalah's site before, a long time ago. And it is a good blog. I just don't appreciate the off-topic anonymous comment promoting it. It's rude. And while Amalah may be the most articulate baby-blogger ever, I am completely uninterested in pregnancy and infant-rearing myself and therefore don't want to read about it. Unless, as I said, it's a story from someone I know firsthand.

Perhaps it's just me, but I always wish that Role Players actually had our own propaganda that we could leave. Like a "join the wonders of a fantasy world" or somesuch. I oughta make it, save I don't have the Photoshop skills. I'll get Paul to do it maybe. Imagine though how those people'd feel if they saw that on their doorstep after leaving their own propaganda. Equal opportunity. ;)

When I role play, I am a wicked ass, card carrying member of the JW's. I am known as "The Elder" and have ammassed +25 dexterity and +35 experience over the past month by leaving leaflets on the banisters in public stairwells all over the city.
My weapon is my leaflet. By way of severe paper cut or intellectual bludgeoning, I will convert you one way or another.
