Appleseed said:Do you put nacho cheese on communion wafers? No. You don't do that. Doing things you're not supposed to do is often seen as humorous. That's how most jokes work.
Not being Catholic, I don't know what they're traditionally served with. Guilt, I assume.
Thanks for the inside information. I initially thought I was looking at an uncooked omelette with a festive garnish of store-brand antacids - which, despite being an unorthodox combination, somehow failed to resonate with certain demographics.
Have a meme.

No no no, don't ruin it directly, ruin it indirectly. Feed into it. Lime oil will cure your rickets, while a blend of lavender and orange will solve that pesky anemia. Herpes? Palm oil with a sprinkle of sage.
Idiots were put here for our entertainment, thinking about them any other way just turns you into my bitter misanthropic self.
I'm absolutely digging the Father Ted references. Awesomesauce.
Meme unrelated:

Well, you see [adjusts glasses], stairs aren't usually built in that fashion. So the fact that they're built in such a nakedly dangerous manner, why... [chuckle] it's simply... well, that's how jokes work.
Another for Duke, because the world needs more of the old Father Ted, so.

If you are Catholic (or at least religious), it's understandable that you would fail to see the humor.
I'm about as Catholic as a manhole cover, and equally religious, and just didn't get the joke. Maybe you have to be a little bit Catholic for it to be actually funny.
I'm Presbyterian. Trust me the joke wasn't that funny, and Jees-its made the rounds through the Christian community 20 years ago. Not to mention communion wafers are unleavened and universally nasty. Luckily they frequently come with a splash of equally nasty red wine. There are better communion memes out there.
(I am ostensibly Catholic, though I struggle with my belief)
Toyman's are not coming up for me, but I agree with him - the joke/meme just wasn't that funny. Probably because they're not communion chips, they're communion wafers? I understood it, I got it, I wasn't offended, but it wasn't funny. I don't think they're nasty, but they're entirely tasteless.

Just cause Father Ted is one of the greatest shows of all time.

Is there not a Sinclair drum around somewhere?

Of course:

Nice! Now I just need a basic MSPaint for this phone
I just didn't get the Jeez its joke. Now that someone explained it, its still not funny.
I'm waiting for someone to equate religion to essential oils. oops :)

it seems like half the modern stairways that I see in the architecture magazines don't meet code.
In reply to Toyman! :
Communion memes are incredibly hard to find.
In reply to Appleseed :
There are a bunch of them out there. A lot of them are in Spanish.
I'm pretty sure the Good Lord has a sense of humor so I don't mind sharing them.
I feel that I need to encourage anyone confused by the Father Ted pictures to explore more deeply. It is an absolute guarantee of a trip straight to hell if you laugh.
Totally worth it.
