It is not exactly appropriate to get the giggles in the midst of a Catholic funeral mass. I blame Eddie Izzard.
To understand how such a blasphemous thing could happen, you must first watch this video. It is 5:45 minutes long but, if you are pressed for time, let it fully load then watch the portion from 3:38 to 4:38.
G’head, I’ll wait. (Embedded video below)
Back? Okay, so I am dutifully listening to the sermon, where we get up and sit down and get up and kneel and get up again and I think I may actually lose some weight by the end of the service. As we stand, the priest says something about a hymn book and a specific page number.
And then.
They started.
To sing.
And that is why I cannot go back to St. Anthony’s Catholic Church in Atwater. Ever. Again.
