Oh good, I thought I was the only one! When I distressedly pulled the whole mess out of my pocket one day, my friend looked over and said “Don’t worry, they can take a beating.” I was shocked for a second until I realized he thought I was worried about my earbuds, not the blessed sacramental. LOL…Protestants!

Have you been to St. Patrick’s? The Dominicans there are really incredible folks. One of them got me seriously considering the vocation, in fact.

I love this thread! 😃
 
You know you are a Roman Catholic when… the first thing you would save in a fire (besides your family), is an OLD Holy Rosary your great grandmother gave you, that was blessed by a pope.
 
when your grandmother shows you all of her (expensive) jewelry and tells you to pick the one you want her to leave to you and you only want the miraculous medal that is so worn you need a magnafine glass to see what it is.

when you hear of the death of someone you dont even know on the news you immediatly pray for their soul and their loved ones.
 
-When you hear or see an ambulance and say “Jesus have mercy” on offer a prayer for whomever is in need.

-When you buy a snack from the vending machine and find yourself saying grace before eating it.

-When you say grace over dinner, but are delayed from eating for a few minutes so say grace a second time just to be safe.

-When you think long car trips = pray the rosary
 
You get privately annoyed when a neighbor has their Christmas tree out on the street in the garbage before Epiphany 😛
 
Lol.

You know you are Catholic whenever someone says Amen, you make the sign of the cross.
 
When buying your wedding dress your entourage knows the drill is to kneel in the bridal salon to make sure the dress still looks ok and you can breath while kneeling during Mass.

Then you ask the bridal consultant how much it would be to alter the neckline and create sleeves! (Since almost EVERY gown now-a-days is sleeveless!)😃
 
when you cry for joy when your friend tells you her 6 year old daughter wants to Jesus’ mommy when she grows up 🙂
 
The rubber bands on your braces reflect the color of the liturgical season…I’m wearing purple! Lent:)
 
…when you get banned from CAF for upholding Papal Tradition/teaching against statements put forth by the USCCB
 
This one happens to me all the time.

I type something at work to somebody named “Chris” and inevitably, my muscle memory types “Christ” from all my time on this forum. 😃
 
This thread is SO funny… we ought to revive it. Does anyone have any new answers?
 
When you/ your kids dress up as saints for Halloween in honor of All Saints Day the day after.
 
when you pray for St. Christopher’s intercession before driving anywhere (which is absolutely necessary for those of us who aren’t very good drivers 😊)
 
Here in the Philippines, you’ll know if one is Catholic if you find the images of the Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart (printed on ceramic tiles) hanging near the gate of the house.
 
When you go into a fast food joint on a Friday, order a fish sandwich, and wonder why the restaurant is even making burgers.
