How does the Act of Contrition go now then? "Bless me Father and stand by for the same made-up bullshit I gave you last month because I can't think of anything bad I really did since we're all fundamentally good people who get brow-beaten by the likes of you into thinking we're guilty of something awful, Amen"?

What part of the country is that, whitey?

Metro Boston

It's probably snobbery more than anything, but it manifests itself in ways that could be interpreted as anti Catholic.  The old Yankee families who have been around for generations resent newcomers moving in shaking things up. Many of them have accomplished fvck all in their own lives and cling to these vestiges of privilege as a way of feeling good about themselves.

One particular incident gave me a good laugh....the son of a lady who cleaned houses for the rich people won a full scholarship to BC and did very well for himself.  He bought a big house from an old family who were down on their luck and then applied to the planning board to demolish it and build a new one in its place.  There was holy blue murder

I reckon someone so proactive at sneering at other people would have something to report.

I wouldn't confess to such actions. I'd boast about it.

or in your case you worship yourself

Nothing wrong with that at all.

Actually there is. Look up delusions of grandeur and associated disorders.

Or maybe you're just a prissy little princess who hasn't grown up  ;D

Is that the best you can do? Come on man, put your back into it! You must have more creative insults in the bag than that, you amusingly stupid mucksavage.

The irony. 😉😉
