"Now, there's something I want you to do for me." "Never. I am a lady. Not if you were a hundred years old, not if I was a hundred years old..." "Calm down. I don't want to go to bed with you, lady." "Why not?" "Why - Why not? I'd be too frightened. God knows what parts of me you'd steal. I'd wake up with all sorts of things missing." "Lord... whatever I've done to pi$$ you off... if you could just get me out of this and somehow let me know what it was I promise to rectify the situation." "You thought that was fast? I thought it was fast. Well, was it?" "You know the next time you people come and drive us off our land I'm gonna find a nice piece of swamp that's so God-awful, maybe then you'll leave us the hell alone." "What's greatest Western thrill of all?" "Kill Indians." "Kill Indians? Is it legal?" "Oh, white man been doing it for years."

Over 900 men, women, and children serving as Way Ambassadors?
WordWolf replied to Belle's topic in About The Way
"The celebration drew a crowd of over 600 people from all over the United States as well as other countries. Over 900 men, women, and children serving as Way Ambassadors were recognized for completing their nine-month tenure. These individuals reached out with the good news of God’s Word in Cameroon, Congo, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the United States, and Venezuela." " For two weeks, 246 students from the United States and 11 other countries participated in the annual Biblical Studies seminar, the Advanced Class. This is the third of four Advanced Classes The Way International is running in 2023. Other classes were run in the Dominican Republic and Togo, while the final class will run in the Democratic Republic of the Congo." It's obvious, from the phrasing, that twi wrote this story for them. "In total, hundreds of individuals have received in-depth teaching in God’s Word, further equipping them to live God’s Word and to help others do the same." No newspaper writes like that, it's unique to twi. Running the numbers, twi is pushing hard to increase numbers in the Dominican Republic, Togo, Cameroon, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Venezuela. Cameroon and Venezuela are not moving as fast as the others, whether for local reasons or because twi isn't pushing as much. The DRC was formerly Zaire, IIRC, which makes this an old project for twi. I remember twi pushing locally in areas of the US, where people who were fresh out of the Foundational class were pushed to take the Intermediate, then pushed to become Twig coordinators, then pushed to try for the Advanced class... Results varied wildly, but meant a lot of Twig and Branch coordinators were brand-new people. Judging from how they're being vague about which are from where, it's obvious twi's hiding that most of the "over 900" were outside the US. Naturally, this also doesn't say these people JUST finished their term... they could be recognizing a few years' worth of people all at once by including all of them. -
The Scottish-origin comedy troupe known as "Monty Python's Flying Circus" has had their hits and misses over the decades. Between their television show, their movies, and later their live specials, they've put together old material and new material, and just been funny in their own ways. While doing that, they've spoofed or poked fun at all sorts of things (like kidding Prince Charles to his face that his Mother was still on the throne.) All sorts of things of theirs have been considered quotable by various types of fans and geeks. They have fans all over the English-speaking world, and some fans in places where English is not the main language. One of their comedy skits involved a food inspector who made a visit to a chocolate factory. He was investigating claims that there were unsafe ingredients in their chocolate snacks. The company owner proudly pointed out how he used all natural ingredients- which didn't change how unsafe some of his all-natural ingredients were. Among the problem products were an actual dead frog covered in chocolate, and a "Spring Surprise" where the eater was surprised when blades sprang out to stab their mouth when they tried to eat the confection. A handful of years ago, another Scot was accused of ripping off an idea from that skit. Although they denied any connection whatsoever, I personally think they copied it ACCIDENTALLY but did so anyway. What made it worse was the later "amazing coincidence" of copying ANOTHER snack from that factory- "Cockroach Cluster." This Scot became a household name around the world, and very famous, for what they did which included these ideas (not that these ideas were particularly noteworthy in the final products.) They became incredibly rich, and world famous. It can be said that a multimedia franchise was inspired by a very long train ride, and the first book was partly written with the writer on Social Security. It was submitted to 12 publishers, and all 12 rejected it for publication. It was only accepted when someone's kid read the submission and wanted to know what happened next. What is this Scot's name?

It definitely sounds like my kind of line, but the humiliated grapes thing rang a bell, also.

Ok, I'm finally using this one. The Scottish-origin comedy troupe known as "Monty Python's Flying Circus" has had their hits and misses over the decades.
