Johnson's inordinate affection with the up-vote button is like a fly that won't go away.

Johnson needs a third button for being a drama queen so he can watch his votes go up.  That might make him feel luvvvy good.

He always tries to steal the show blabbering about himself distracting from the real issue.  Since this thread is dedicated to you (again) johnson, the NOM is a zoo cage for the idols of men and Christ is not in it.  Your hiding in the weeds trying to resurrect a 'valid' ecuмenist religion debated is INVALID!   It's pure indulterism... :sleep:

I agree that the Millenial generation (35ish to 18 yrs old) have, in general, given up on religion of their parents and in varied ways.  Based on stats from my extended family (siblings, cousins, etc) and other families I know who started out as independent, non-sspx Trads (id say a millenial sample size of 300-350 people), here are the results:

about 10% don’t go to any church anymore, 

approx 50% are now indult.  They think the sspx is wrong and all independent chapels are also wrong.  

25% are still trad but go to the neo-sspx, (which is currently quasi-indult) and they don’t really know their faith or understand what happened at V2 - because they didn’t read and study history, they just “went with the flow” and went to a TLM catholic school like their parents told them and nothing more. 

That leaves about 15% who are still Trad, non-sspx.

Yes, that's the kind of thing I'm seeing too, not so much from my extended family ... but in general among the families who have been running in Traditional circles around this area.

I'm surprised, though, that you don't list any who have gone full-blown Novus Ordo.

You've got a interesting perspective on what's vulgar here.

So it's not like "jumping so-and-so's bones?" or the the one that ends with "the pooch"?

Yes, I'll admit it's a bit confusing, and I'm a well read, middle aged native English speaker!  I haven't seen Happy Days though.

I remember in the early days of BBS dial-up chat rooms (before the Internet) there were various "actions" you could do in the chat room. Something like "/jump john" and then in the room it would say "[Your username] is jumping John's bones".

I had never heard the expression before, but I got the gist of it.

I wasn't sure, so I erred on the side of NOT having vulgarity on the forum.

I wonder if Matthew got this phrase confused with something else?  I have never heard of this term as having a "vulgar" meaning.
