You know you are a Roman Catholic when

[John_of_Patmos]

Ok, so for those familiar with the CoD video game series (which yes, is overly violent, but its a good example)…

You hear “Enemy RCXD inbound”***

And come up with “Roman Catholicism explodes death”.

***(RCXD really means Remote controlled explosive device)

Or, you see an RC helicopter in the store and think, “Now how in the world is that helicopter Catholic?”

When you respect both the OF and the EF.

I happen think this is funny.

Haha!

Whenever you see the word Latin, you think of the Latin Church

 

[SweetLambs]

When you’re sitting in your Cells and Molecules lecture and the professor is discussing Central Dogma- and the first thing that comes to mind is the Church.

When you play fetch with your dog with an old rosary.

You let your dog fetch a rosary? Not a blessed one, I am hoping?

Yeah, that doesn’t seem very Catholic to me, actually.

[DarkLight]

When you know how to hide a rosary under a blanket while saying it, so you don’t have to deal with a cat trying to chew on it!

 

[Razanir]

When you get back from Mass only to discover it’s already halftime. (I didn’t even know the game started so early)

Ah, gotcha.

…you get angry when people think St. Patrick’s Day is a day for getting drunk.

…you walk into a cafe on Ash Wednesday and people think you have dirt on your forehead

 

[Aran_Houlihan]

you walk into a cafe on Ash Wednesday and people think you have dirt on your forehead and you have to explain why you have she on your forehead

In nomine Patris, + et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti. Amen.
Introibo ad altare Dei. R: Ad deum qui laetificat juventutem meam.

…When people can hear you coming from a mile away because of all of your medals hitting agains each other.

…your rosary gets tangled up with your earphones.

I know this is a huge thread…but I had to reply to the first post.

I get SO annoyed when this happens!

I carry my rosary beads and my ear phones in my purse at all times and I’m thinking about getting a small twist tie to permanently separate the two.

I also hate it when my beads come apart and my husband has to use pliers to fix them.

… when you sew knee padding to the inside of your slacks.

… when you’re tired and written words start looking like Latin.

 

[WoundedIcon]

When you feel like you have to apologize for believing in the biggest “boogeyman” in the world, for serving “The Man” of religions. If you know what I mean.

 

[Monte_RCMS]

You’re the last one out of church on Palm Sunday, because you have been collecting all the little crosses people have made out of palm … so you can take them to work on Monday.

 

[BVMFatima]

When you pray the Rosary every morning before school, during class, and on the bus going home

God Bless,
