I am an AA member and have never recruited anyone to AA in my life

[KitchenWitch]

:banghead:

[Symarip]

1. But but but...

How are you going to get people on the spaceship?

[arcadian]

2. You mean there is a flamewar going on that doesn't involve pirates?

[NYC_SKP]

3. I've never even heard of "recruiting" people into AA.

Must be the thirteenth step! :evilgrin:

[KitchenWitch]

5. No, the thirteenth step is called "injecting sobriety"

:o

[NYC_SKP]

10. No, Thank You! How about snorting?

I swore in fifth grade to never inject anything!

Smoke, swallow, snort anything, but never inject.

Can I snort sobriety?

:P

[Midlodemocrat]

4. That makes you a slacker. Come on. Step it up.

[Rabrrrrrr]

6. That's okay. You've done a more than exemplar job recruiting children to the gay lifestyle.

so it all evens out.

[KitchenWitch]

7. My work has not been in vain then!

:7

[Rabrrrrrr]

11. Not at all! You just stay there outside the elementary school,

and let another good fascist socialist anti-corporate communist libertarian values-hating liberal handle the AA stuff.

[Midlodemocrat]

8. Good point. And she 's responsible for the latest printing of the gay agenda.

[Lil Missy]

9. What did I miss? THIS time?

:shrug:

[TZ]

12. .

AA is one of the things I never understood the hostility for on DU...:hug:

[KitchenWitch]

14. Thanks TZ

I do not get it either.

:hug:

[Shell Beau]

24. I don't get it either. I helps a lot of people.

It may not be for everyone, but so what. Apparently it works for a lot of people.

[Iggo]

13. But to talk about it is to recruit, didn't ya hear?

[Bertha Venation]

15. Christ. Did I start this?

I'm sorry. Some people. :eyes:

A long time ago, I attended AA meetings for about a year because I had a problem. Just going to the meetings helped. I think it's a good organization.

[KitchenWitch]

18. No, Bertha, this is one that brews beneath the surface

and erupts periodically.

Usually it coincides rather closely with the DU fund drives actually.

Not your fault at all.

:hug:

[TZ]

20. Don't feel bad Bertha

I think its a good thing to discuss openly this sort of thing..MUCH healthier for you..:hug:

[AngryAmish]

16. Are you worried about getting kicked out or something?

[no name no slogan]

17. Then how do you expect to get any cool prizes?

:D

[KitchenWitch]

19. I knew I was not getting the whole benefit of the program

but I could not put my finger on why!

:7

[old mark]

21. Me too, and me neither.

One of the "big things" of AA was the statement that "we didn't ask you to come here - you picked us!"
Did that change?

22. You're still the only Big Book some people will ever encounter

[trof]

23. I'm also an AA member, but not that one.

I belong to the Ancient Aviators of South Alabama.
We're a bunch of old fart pilots who gather once a month to swap stories, etc.

A few days ago a friend invited us to brunch.
Miz t. said "trof can't make it that morning. That's his AA meeting."
"Oh..."
"rofl"
