Unfortunately, the last JW who came here started talking about the decline of society and "broken homes".
They did have the decency to look embarrased when I told them they were speaking to a single mother. They haven't been back since!0 -
Hi I'm a young looking 28 year old mother of 4 even with a baby at my hip I tell them my parents aren't home, I learnt this from my 63 year old dad he does it too, it works with gas and electric sales people too x0

I had two JW knock at 9am a few weeks back. Told them nicely, no thank you, I'm atheist. They then went on about how could I possibly be because the bible is 100% accurate and can't be proven otherwise, that even scientists can't explain the Big Bang. Their exact words!
I asked for their address, said I'd pop around in the morning and preach atheism at them. They soon left.Sigless0 -

OH (who's a little bit from everywhere) started speaking Arabic at some JW's the other week, which soon got rid of them (I don't know if they guessed which language she was speaking, however)
I'd like to put something on the door, but a little afraid of being racist IYSWIM

The last time the JWs knocked, I answered the door stark naked with a big grin on my face. I didn't have to say a word. They haven't been back since."Save £12k in 2019" #120 - £100,699.57/£100,0000

We live in a first floor flat in a small block (4flats). The local JWs seem to think its ok to buzz themselves in using the trade button and then knock on each individual flat door. I can't stand it, I've lost track of the number of times we've told them the trade button is for people fulfilling a useful role, not for people preying on the vulnerable.
I don't go round to their house telling them not to believe so why is it ok for them to come to my house preaching at me?Newborn thread member

My dad used to invite them in, make them a coffee, and then proceed to try and start the biggest discussion/argument ever. Many a time I went downstairs in my childhood to a meek man with a bible on the sofa and my dad ranting and raving about the Big Bang and dinosaurs. They soon communicated with each other and avoided visiting the lunatic at no 12!0

I will admit that I am too nice and normally have trouble getting them to leave. Conversations tend to last 15 or twenty mins as i don't want to be rude or nasty.
Hence my surprise on the last occasion they fair legged it back up the lane without even leaving their booklet.
I couldn't work it out until i realised i have currently nuclear red and purple hair. its seems they don't like it.
Works a charm but a little extreme if you just want a few JW off your doormatPlease note I have a cognitive disability - as such my wording can be a bit off, muddled, misspelt or in some cases i can miss out some words totally...0
