• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I do NOT recommend this lol ... maybe it only struck me as funny because of the sheer outrageousness of the idea. Shock value, you know. That and my phone crashes every time I try to grab the ones I want to share from my page. :D

May I express my ignorance and perhaps I don't get the full joke - but I'm not positive if I know what those are (in the second frame)?

A still, without coiled tubing? Probably the source of the confusion.

Ah ok. I thought it could possibly be that, but I wasn't sure. With the two connected together I couldn't imagine anything else, but I really wasn't at all sure. I don't think I've ever actually seen one, and don't know how they work.

Thanks.

That does make it a bit funnier. :D

(Forgive me y'all, I know it's no fun to have to explain jokes to someone. I hate to be "that person" lol ... but feel free to laugh at my expense too. :D )

St Vlad's flip ??

I well remember the time [ actually the first time ;) ] I saw a censor being 'swung' was in the Romanian Orthodox Church in London - as I said to my GodPapa after wards - I've seen the glowing charcoal in the censor for the very first time . Yup it had been swung waaaaay above the priest's head :D
