I was raised Catholic so was used to some amount of men wearing robes, chanting in dead languages, drawing sigils in the air, and ringing bells to signal the presence of a spirit. Then in high school I went to a service with some charismatic renewal Catholics and learned just how vanilla mainstream Catholics are.
I previously thought those 1940s Southern Revivalist churches you see on TV were an exaggeration. Now I think they might actually underestimate how intense those sorts of people can get.
I didn’t sign for a weird thing.
I was going to go on a first date when the guy asked me to sign an NDA. He was attempting to be a content creator on YouTube, tiktok, etc., and thought he needed to start “protecting his reputation”. I declined the date.
