oh no, he was definitely talking about lynching. he didn't say it while the guy was around. he was just trying to get under me and my girlfriend's skin, not that it makes it much better. i wasn't expecting to have such a wild contribution to this thread.

Autism Sneaks posted:Over turkey, my mom asked if I wanted to go with her to see Rome. For background, a few years ago she had her come to Jesus moment, and has leaned hard into the Catholic aspect of her Filipino-ness ever since. She has been to Europe twice, but those were pilgrimages to Medjugorje, in Bosnia & Herzegovina--where, like in Fatima, Portugal and Villa da Guadalupe, Mexico, an apparition of the Virgin Mary appeared a couple times and turned their backwaters into massive tourist destinations. I figured it might actually be fun to go, until she revealed her impetus to see the Pope came from a fear that the Muslims might take over Europe in her lifetime, and I guess do to Rome what the Ottomans did to Constantinople My friend's incredibly Greek dad once heard I wanted to go to Istanbul and he got real salty about it, first of all from calling it Istanbul. After I said said I wanted to see the Hagia Sophia: Him, dismissively: They won't let you see it... Me: Well I read it was closed for renovations earlier this year, but they said it was open to visitors again now. Him, after thinking for a bit: They are Muslims. They LIE!
