New 'Fun' thread

I am not a doctor either but I am pretty sure that the guy with the case of quarantine back will get bedder in a few weeks.

Actually, I am not completely sure, I might have to sleep on it a little.

Re: the above meme.
I understand the irony, but I still find it distasteful.

We have more than enough issues in the Orthodox Church. Why make fun of Catholics?

The first meme is okay, but the second one isn’t?

The meme about Catholics demonstrates a medieval disdain for ecclesiastical deviancy, which is commendable and not to be taken as offensive. It also highlights the faithful Catholic in the present day who remains loyal to his bishop, while inwardly acknowledging their perceived errors (in continuity with Catholics of old). Where is the offence?

I laughed because I can relate to it. Experiencing similar problems in our own Church is exactly why we might be able to find it funny.

how it should be, eyes on the street.

For this reason, architects in the '60s and '70s tried to encourage the street as an observable place from the homes, something which used to be common place until the popularisation of the private motorcar and streets became little more than parking lots.

It's saddening to see the appearance of so many CCTV towers around the place. Lends to a hostile environment, and after being assaulted in the street, I know how few cameras are actually recording, or whether they are actually able to be pointing in the correct location at the time. Furthermore, it is surprisingly difficult for the police to gain access to camera data, assuming the recording hasn't been taped over.

I have noticed in the city in which I live, a lot of the new apartment blocks have balconies...a nice feature for the tenant, but also a brilliant solution against street crime.
During lockdown, I was terribly envious of those with balconies, especially during the summer.

Fill the world with yia yias.

I had a balcony... Traded it for a porch. However, whenever my 7 year old yia yia hears an engine on our little one lane road she springs into action!

If this is what we looked for in Orthodoxy we should rejoice that we've found much more. May God help us to realize it and grow.

Justin-HS, brother, you need to go on a meme sabbatical. These are pretty blasted tacky.
