World Youth Day

I saw a pilgrim in lederhosen today. And the baby was cross, so I couldn’t stop the car to photograph this guy with his peeps outside the local mosque.

I tried to register as a pilgrim on the weekend. Apparently you need to not only be catholic, but you also need to be “known” to one of the recognised organisations. And Acceptance is not recognised. I am not actually a member of Acceptance either, but if I was going to claim kinship with any mob of catholics, these ones sound like my kind of catholics.

Yes, I am planning to hand out condoms on saturday, and I feel quite strongly about the evil of the pope’s stance on their use in Africa, despite the spread of HIV/AIDS. I believe in women’s reproductive rights, and I am a big fan of homosexuality.

So why would I try to sign up to World Youth Day? I gotta get me one of those stylin’ backpacks!

God I am shallow.

  1. Are they not the naffest?

    they’re being handed out at the end of Kris’ road, so she had to hug a lesbian (that would be me) and then maybe go watch some porn or something, just to keep the world spinning right on its axis.

  2. I KNEW you’d like the backpacks! Every time I see one (and I’ve seen hundreds) I think of you. Pink/Yellow/Orange = Lara. Can’t you just go to the WYD shop and buy one?
