If you're using yeast in your communion wafers then you're christing wrong. I grew up in the United Church and they used grape juice and cubed white bread.

teen witch posted:So there are tons of recipes for communion bread style wafers but not the wafers themselves One of the ways cloistered (not allowed to leave the convent/monastery without grave reason) nuns used to raise money was by selling nun-made wafers to churches. I read an ex-nun's comment that they (the wafers, not the nuns) were pressed between two hot plates that were specially made to imprint crosses on. Like a waffle iron, but for God. Use a pizzelle iron and claim that the patterns make them extra-holy. If you just want to have wafers and don't insist on making them, google "church supply wafers"; the couple of places I looked at didn't require you to show proof that you were a church. * For instance, it's been ruled by the Roman Catholic church that completely gluten-free wafers can't be consecrated, because they have to have some gluten in them to count as bread. Sucks to be you, celiacs.

AITA for not wanting to explain to a friend why the word she used is a slur?quote:I’m (20F) at Uni in the UK. I have a classmate / friend Izzy who is on the same course as me. She was raised up North in a village where everyone is white (although she admits that she went to school and college in the nearby cities so it’s not like she’s never encountered someone from an ethnic minority before.) OP had to add in the edit because of the large number of comments saying "I'm American and I didn't know it was a slur therefore she mustn't have known either"

AITA for only showering once a week? https://rareddit.com/r/AmItheAsshole/comments/10wag7k/aita_for_only_showering_once_a_week/ quote:I (24M) know that a lot of people will just look at the title and just say I'm in the wrong because of the stigma, but hear me out. It is winter where I live so I'm consistently cold and not really sweating or anything. I usually shower when I feel gross and it usually takes me 5-6 days before I actually start to feel gross. I'm not crazy, in the summer when it's hot and sticky I shower every 2-3 days like normal but it just doesn't feel necessary in the winter! Posting this because I've been reading The Clean Body by Peter Ward and oh m god. This dumb motherfucker has hot water on demand, is able to have private, lengthy showers, and still chooses not to bathe. I would suggest acid pit, but I fear the acid would be overtaken by the bo. Also what the gently caress, lice does not appear from overshowering. How did his caretakers gently caress him up so badly? ps  quote:At the 1399 coronation of Henry IV of England, when the archbishop anointed the king’s head with holy oil, lice rushed out of his hair, evidently angry about all the oil. And in 2008, Italian researchers examined the mummified remains of a fifteenth-century king of Naples, Ferdinando II of Aragon, and found lice in his head hair and pubic hair.

Nerdlord Actual posted:Anxious millennial dating content Hmm this is interesting. Not for generational content as I am Gen X and single and this would stress me out. I have know people who think it is creepy to "slide into DMs" and I've known several couples who have met my doing so. I've had people (men) do this creepily and sexually, and women as well - not on dating apps, on Instagram. I've had men flirt and thought it was cute on Instagram. So I guess it's the way people do it. Personally were I to DM someone I thought was cute I would start by saying, "I'd like to initiate conversation, would you be okay with that?" But I am extremely tactful by nature and wonder if that isn't even too forward.

Leaving the word "paki" aside, and swapping it for a different ethnicity. What the friend said was "I didn't know your were a Wog, I thought you were a Dago." Which means the semantics of her racism, and her "C'mon, that word's not that bad a way to describe "you people"" defense, are not important. What is important is her casual use of slurs, defense of said slurs, and complete inability to understand that de-humanizing an entire race of people to a reductive stereotype is offensive and upsetting to those it's being directed at. With the side issue of, someone asks you politely not to call them "X". Then the decent thing to do is not call them "X". Even if you don't think it is rude/mean/offensive. Because they asked, and it'd be the nice thing to do. Not double down on defending racism. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

Private Cumshoe posted:"I'd like to initiate a conversation" is negative forwardness I don't understand what negative forwardness means, I have never heard that term before and it doesn't come up in google. No, I haven't, I am asking if they wish to converse. If the answer is no thanks, that would not be the definition of a conversation. That's a two sentence exchange.

Prevalence of slurs can vary pretty widely by region but that specific one is pretty fuckin far from being a preferred term in any place that I've ever heard of. Seems like it'd be a lot easier to just apologize.

if she's from the north of the UK she 100% knows it's a slur and there not a single excuse there at all. if you want to refer to someone from Pakistan you call them Pakistani, shortening that had always been a slur as far back as the 70s source: someone from the north of england
