St. Brother Andre Catholic Highschool 

Share definition Flag
Some broke ass school in markham filled with 50% asians, 25% white people, 15% unknown and brown, and 10% black. All the black people think they are from the hood (scarbs), and they like to cause shit for no reason. You have the AP kids (advanced placement) who do nothing but work always, our cafeteria is shit - probs the worst i've ever seen. Not a very smart school aside from those AP losers, a ton of druggies who love their weed, and less then a handful of quality teachers - one got expelled last year for getting too flirty with a student- PLOT TWIST the male teacher was getting to close with a male student... oh well :P
You go to St. Brother Andre Catholic Highschool? do u also smoke weed or r u part of an imaginary gang?

Cultural Catholic 

Share definition Flag
Someone who identifies with at least some Catholic teachings and traditions, likely because of upbringing, but is not active in the Catholic Church.

A "cultural Catholic" was raised in a Catholic family, probably attended Catholic services as a child, and possibly attended Catholic school for at least a few years. Catholic teachings and traditions may influence the person's behavior, decision-making, and holiday celebrations, but a "cultural Catholic" no longer attends Mass or practices his or her faith. The person may continue to attend weddings, funerals, and other events that take place in the Catholic Church but does so out of consideration for family and friends rather than as an expression of his or her own faith.
That family goes to the movies rather than to Mass on Christmas Day, but they still incorporate a manger into their holiday decor because they're "cultural Catholics."

The striver is a future Soros/Fullbright/Rhodes/Gates/Marshall/etc. fellow. The striver lives to study.
