A priest, secretary to Cardinal Franceso Coccopalmerio whom is personal advisor to Pope Francis, living in an apartment located in the former palace dedicated to the Office of the Doctrine of the Faith (their regulatory office essentially), was evidently found to be hosting a drug-fueled homosexual orgy during a police raid (linked to the original before people questioned the source).

They were reenacting ancient roman traditions :v

Gay sex and hatred of homosexuals?

Checks out.
This thread moved fast, but I gotta correct this. Only post-christianity romans disliked the gays. Homosexuality between men was seen as pretty ok. Unless you were on bottom. Then you were a wuss or something along those lines. Between women is kind of iffy, though.

I should correct you on this: Sex between men was ok. Actually developing feelings for them was a no-no.

I've always wondered what Greeks and Romans used for as lube...

But a woman on top, that's always been unthinkable.

Yeah, I googled too...

And found out that apparently the Japanese at one point used... uh. Hm. Smashed yams. (The Chinese and Koreans apparently used... boiled red seaweed. :v)

...

Okay.

Roman sex party antics aside.. I have a different WTF.

Apparently, NOBODY seems to know that you can hook an old vintage 90s super soaker directly to a water hose in place of the bottle.
You know, one of these old gems that I used to have as a little bratling child?



Yeah. Just unscrew the bottle, and attach a water hose in its place. Turn the faucet on, and hold the trigger down for insane high pressure water gun fight tower defense fun. 

Are there any pictures on Google of people doing this? Nope.
Any videos on Youtube? Nope.

Did this somehow get lost to the ages?  I used to do this ALL THE DAMN TIME as a kid!  Nowdays, they have specialized NERF blasters designed for this-- but this was before such shameless specialized commercialism!  Just remove the hose and reattach the bottle, and you are portable again!  Watergun tower defense was a BLAST-- but really? Nothing google? NOTHING Youtube!?

Makes me want to order one of these old jewels from Ebay just to make the missing video tutorial myself!

What's more amazing than lube is that Romans already used condoms. Made from sheep intestine. Condoms are older than christianity.

Pffft.  Contraception is older than even ROME.  Look into Assyrian mythology, and the reason for the FIRST flood myth. ;P

The first forms were dated to exist from the Neolithic era.

It's probably even older than that even.  We just don't have any evidence to prove it. Just pointing out that the oldest WRITING around prominently mentions contraception. :P

Any older than that and we are stepping out of human beings.

Are we going to get into dinosaur contraceptives?

Pretty sure at some point in Hindu literature it ceases to be contraceptives and more "kicking a mother in the womb so that her child dies"

How barbaric!

You should push them down the stairs like a civilized person.

Not the mother of course, the father.
