latin mass

The mass as celebrated by Latin rite Roman Catholics till ~1962 when the mass was reformed to what is called the 'ordinary form'. The (traditional) latin mass is sometimes called the Tridentine mass. The mass is in latin, mostly inaudible to the attenders, the priest faces away from the people, much more solemn and ritualistic. Now it tends to be an SSPX or RadTrad fixation who are ultra-conservative and ultra-traditional. Despite that there is some actual Roman Catholic usage, and increasing usage like with the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Peter, but it remains the 'extraordinary form'.

Person 1: The Latin Mass is very beautiful and solemn.

Person 2: But I couldn't hear the Priest at all. Also I was at the back so I couldn't even see what was going on.
Person 3: The new mass focuses on community and participation, like the early church, maybe the new mass doesn't have the solemness and beauty of the former but we can keep working on it.
RadTrad: You ALL don't even have the real mass anymore, you aren't real Catholics, the Pope is an imposter, and you all should be afraid because Jesus came to dispense justice just like the movie "Judge Dredd" (1995)

Person 1, 2, 3: You need help RadTrad.

Latin Club

An occasionally crappy, but sometimes beast place for nerds to chill with other nerds and talk about the excitement of latin. The only other reason anyone would ever be in the club is if they are too weak to stand up to Mr. Lehmann's power of persuasion, which has 100% chance of taking over all choices you ever make. The nerds are split into categories, some of which are lame-ass, like all the Greek categories, and some of which are bad-ass, like Latin Lit. & Reading Comp. But it can also be a waste of time if you just wanna be fly and hang out in the playground held by the alternative school-kids, beacuse as soon as you join the club, not going to a single meeting can ruin your standing with the Lehmanator. But even if you think you are all that and a bag of chips, and that you can withstand the hour-long meeting, beware of the Chu-nouncements, normally about three announcements max but said in intervals of 15-40 minutes. And then, you must survive your annoying category brotheren, doomed to spend almost an eternity with them, like riding a never-ending busride with them to Dallas or sharing a hotelroom with them. And besides the fact that you are assigned homework and have to turn in a notebook to be read by Latin "Officers" and to be graded and used as blackmail against you, Latin Club is not all that bad. Sometimes.

Latin Officer: "Hey I didnt see you at the latin club last wednesday."
Latin n00b: "hells yah, i was chillin' with ashley out by the alternative school smoking pot. nah bruh, we aint smoking shit, but we were quite chill."
Latin Officer: "This is going on your Latin perma-record. Soon you will be socially rejected by all in latin club!"
Latin n00b: "not if i give 'em pot."
Latin Officer: "Well.... you'll still only get a 2 on your latin notebook for this week."
Latin n00b: "shit man! i'll be socially rejected by all in latin club!"
Latin Officer: "Don't let it happen again!"

Latin Bong

The lord of all bongs, an ancient artifact from the Roman Empire over 2000 year ago. Found in the Ecce Romani textbook, the Latin Bong can be identified by its swirly down-stem. The Latin Bong high is like no other you’ve ever experienced. The Latin Bong is very exclusive, but remember- anything can be a bong if you make it🍃

Dude, Davus hit that LB (Latin Bong) so hard he didn’t wake up the next morning.
