Curmudgeons Invade Suscipe Domine

[Governator]

If your not familiar with the Catholic Answer Forums game thread Curmudgeons in Casual Discussions there are no real rules...

Basically you can talk about whatever accept you do it in a cranky and sardonic fashion.

We drink copius amounts of coffee and chain smoke while yelling at kids and other annoying people to get off our lawns!!!

Curmudgeon Coffee consist of toxic and biological waste and whatever you might have lying around in a junk drawer.

Sometimes we have meaningful conversations and then awkwardly pretend they never happened.

After a thread exceeds its post limit we create another usually in some place around the world or under some theme.

Welcome to the party... ☕

SD already has this. It's called St Joseph's Workbench.  /s

Would this thread be more appropriate in The Coffee Pot?

We Curmudgeons throw everything in the coffee pot...

Dirty socks, antifreeze, grass clippings and about 1% actual coffee beans... ☕

Do they drink hazardous waste and yell at tresspassers walking on their lawns in St Joseph's Workbench?

I'm here to give you all the Bad News of the Curmudgeon Gospel...

I'm a stranger in a strange land.

I'm from the bad lands of Fresno CA I fight mutants and ride sandworms... Just in case you know you have a chupacabra infestation I'm the guy to call.

He's joking. It's a sub-forum for men only... If you want to join that sub-forum, there's a thread in the General Info sub-forum to request access (or send a pm to the forum owner, Kaesekopf).

Aah okay..

Is this the proper location for this thread?

I kind of wish I put it in the Coffee Pot along with the other strange and foul things we Mudgies put in the coffee pot..

On CAF we have these threads in Casual Discussions.

Anyways today's Coffee... ☕

Gum stuck to my shoe
Tractor tires
Soggy frozen peas
Cigarettes buds
5 year Taco Bell Volcano Tacos I found in my trunk
Coffee beans filtered through and old shop wrag.

Enjoy...

I thought being a curmudgeon was something you could be PROUD of - taking on the challenge of being a grump even though circumstances around you were WONDERFUL. Anyone could be a curmudgeon if all they had to do were to drink THAT.

Don't be so surban...This is a Traditional Catholic Forum after all your getting your Purgatorial suffering out of the way...

Today's Coffee ☕

The flames of Purgatory
The gloom of Hades
Hair Shirts
Floggers
Cilices
Trappist Beer
Cigar Buds
Brewed with holy water under the old rite... So with blessed and exorcised salt.

Enjoy... ☕

I am Roman Catholic Latin Rite but attend a Ukrainian Catholic mission.

My wife converted to Catholicism through the mission so myself and our four children are Latin Rite and my wife is Ukrainian Rite.

We had our first vespers today.

I guess I'm kinda like St Romuald I am a Westerner who borrows from some of the traditions of the East.

I love iconography I have a whole wall and home full.

Those are some things about me...

Aaah that's good burns going down... Got to exorcise the demons.

Ah how I love the Ukrainian Divine Liturgy, at least as much the TLM, and if a UC Church were anywhere nearby, I would attend.

Now, as to your thread, I regret I cannot actively partici  pate, but will follow for the amusement.  Catholic curmudgeons are very interesting people.
However, I am much too polyanna-ish/cup half full.  Annoying, I know.  Mea culpa.

I would also love to participate, but my sense of humor runs more towards dumb jokes that nobody but me laughs at. It takes more talent to do what you are proposing. I hope that others will participate; one of the members that is perfect for this type of thread is Greg; he does this type of stuff with half his brain tied behind his back.
Welcome to the Forum.

You aren't actually uncharitable in the Curmudgeon threads you just pretend to be and there's a lot of dumb and dry humor.

I'm back on CAF now but I'll come in to check on you all.

I notice these threads run very... very.. slow but maybe I haven't found the right topic.

For Coffee ☕

Sonic Pickle Slushy with Styrofoam cup, plastic straws lids and all

Spicy Lime Vegatable Shrimp Ramen Noodles with cardboard bowl and cellophane sauce wrapper

High Mileage Oil from my car

Dirty laundry from my family's trip to Disneyland

Enjoy ☕

I find this amusing, from "On being a joyful curmudgeon", Fr  Dwight Longenecker:

It is a widely agreed precept that a many of a certain age, if he is sane, ought to be a curmudgeon.

Definition of curmudgeon

    1: a crusty, ill-tempered, and usually old man

Why should he be a curmudgeon? Because by the time he has reached a certain age he should also have attained a certain level of wisdom and knowledge which will cause him to understand with increasing clarity how stupid, vain, shallow, lustful, greedy and idiotic most of this world and the people in it actually are.

Exactly now tell those pesky neighbor kids and the Mormons to get off our lawn!!!
