    simultaneously bored out of my skull but glad I'm out of class

    I went to Catholic school too and that is pretty much the perfect description of how the mandatory mass felt.

    I remember during lent we also had to do this stations of the cross thing twice a week, where we just kept kneeling and standing up over and over again while the priest walk around the church to all the depictions of the stations of the cross. I'm probably going to need a knee replacement in my 60s because of that

      Yeah I remember stations of the cross being a killer. "Ok, he fell for the third time, home stretch let's go."

      Felt bad for the servers who had to stand along with the priest throughout the whole ordeal.

        Oh yeah that must have sucked for the servers.

        All in all tho I don't think Catholic school was so bad. At the time I HATED the religion classes that were required literally every year. But now, I find it kinda fascinating. It's interesting to learn how they think and how it all is understood by the people who actually believe it. I feel like I understand the human psyche a but better because of it.
