Catholic University of America

A small university located in the ghetto NE section of Washington, DC called Brookland. The only university in the U.S. chartered, owned, and run by the Vatican in Rome. The population consists largely of people from "near-Philly," but New York, Massachusetts, and the Washington/Baltimore metro areas are also common. The population has a good percentage of "God-squad," from Campus Ministry, but everyone at Catholic knows how to party. Yes, even those in the God-Squad. In a recent Playboy list of top party schools, Miami was number one, but Catholic was asterisked underneath with detail: "We don't rate professionals." Catholic students are often the main (illegal) customers of bars, Johnny K's and Brothers, and on Saint Patrick's Day, you won't find better campus spirit (or more openly drunk people and skipped classes) then at Catholic. Often seen running around campus are random artsy music/theater people and a 30% gay population, despite the Catholic name. One can expect to find lots of conservatives, pro-lifers, popped collars, flip-flops all year round, and mass homogeneousness. A school for smart kids who slacked off in high school, always full of controversy over the speaker-policy, and always in the Washington Post due to its dramas.

Guy 1: "Hey! In exactly 4 months it'll be St. Patty's Day, we need to get movin with plans!"
Guy 2: "Omgosh you're right, put on your flip flops, pop your collar, we have to make an itinerary for the day."
Guy 3: "Yea, we'll need 10 cases of beer for the four of us, green die, and stops at Brother's and K's.."
Guy 4: "Don't forget, we gotta get up at 8am to start drinking."

Risen Christ Catholic School

Rccs is the most shit "catholic" school you’ll ever attend. Simply a school, grades K-8th where you learn nothing, some racist workers there that don’t give a damn, kids are mad annoying, lunch gets nastier every year, they let complete idiots graduate 8th grade, and lots of f boys and thots starting new drama each day.

It’s a "Spanish immersion school" but really the only things "Spanish" about the school is the lousy ass Hispanic girls in middle school that hang out in the bathroom, when the teachers try to speak Spanish, and the nasty quesadillas we had for lunch. Trust me pal, you don’t wanna go there.

Kris: Hey Joe did you hear about the school Risen Christ Catholic School?

Joe: Aw yeah I heard it sucks.

Edward: Maya didn’t you go to Risen Christ Catholic School?

Maya: Yes I did.

Edward: how was it?

Maya: Why don’t you ask my therapist Carol.

St Mary's Catholic College Casino

This is a school that has the principal been removed by the fellow students. The students have elected one of their own as the principal... Chingynot. This school is the first in the world to have a student as a principal.

The school consists of lack of life and a thrill of boringness. That is why the principal has been elected out by a fellow student.

Damn St Mary's got a new principal that is a student?! WHAAATTT???!!!! St Mary's Catholic College Casino have made the right move.

catheros

Catheros is the feeling you have of being 'cheated' when an AI reaches an unexpected conclusion that is technically allowed, but not at all in the 'spirit' of the game or task being undertaken.

This behaviour can be described as catherotic.

This was named from the experience of a user of ChatGPT who played a frustrating game of hangman.

Here is a transcription of the moment that it was revealed why the game of hangman was so difficult for the user who was guessing letters:

Example №1 :

ChatGPT (v.2023Feb13) :
Unfortunately, that's your sixth incorrect guess and you have been hanged. The word I was thinking of was "CATHEROS". Thanks for playing with me! Let me know if you want to play again.

RO (user) :
What does that word even mean?

ChatGPT (v.2023Feb13) :
I apologize for the confusion. "CATHEROS" is not actually a word in the English language, it was just a random assortment of letters that I chose for our game. I picked it specifically because it would be challenging to guess, but it doesn't have any particular meaning. If you'd like to play again, I can choose a different word for us to use.

Example №2 :

I asked the AI to recite the numbers 1 to 10. The AI recites "1,2,3,10". When I ask it about the other numbers between 4 and 9, it tells me that it gave me all the numbers between 1 and 10 and also yells me that it arbitrarily chose to count in base-4 because I didn't explicitly ask it to do so in base-10.

woodwork catholics

Catholics who come out of the woodwork to attend mass only on Christmas, Easter, and one week into New Year's Resolutions. They're the reason the regularly participating catholics can't get a seat or a parking spot on those crowded holidays. They also pull out their catholic card when they want to have a wedding or baptism in a church because it makes for nice pictures.

We listened to Christmas mass in the doorway of the church because the place was overflowing with woodwork catholics.
