always feel some conflict about this one because of my intense and untameable aversion to the hotted dog (just one of my Food Things that comes from no rational place and which cannot be controlled)
still a good commitment to Joke

this is the one i remember reading i said it was the best but ive literally only read one book on the subject
the weirdest thing is he took back everything he said about the chronovisor but his fellow priests pushed it so i wanna know more about his other achievements (TELL ME MORE ABOUT THE EXORCISMS)

I’m assuming the ‘hundred lashes […] laid on his hand’ aren’t exactly bullwhip lashes? Are these more like reeds or wooden sticks?
doing penance for provoking the tipsiness of my boys

I’m honestly not sure!
I got down the sole Collection of Medieval Penitentials that’s on my shelf and located what seems to be the same translation of the same document the above tweeterer took the pictures of. There’s not much about flagellation and nothing specific re: any physical requirements for the form of said.
It did say “this shares stuff with the one we’ve printed right before it and probably stole from it” so I started working my way backward through all the included Irish Penitentials. It turns out I don’t have the attention span to do a good job of this around midnight? One does use the specific vocabulary “scourge” which in the context of a medieval Catholic You Sinned Now What? guide obviously recalls the famous scourging of The Big J Man and invokes the idea of a many-thonged leather whip. But did the Original Latin really suggest this or is it a translator’s choice leading me astray? Should I finish doing The Reading I’ve assigned myself before I try to not really answer a question?
Could be.

Is this intended towards monasteries or lay people? I’d assume they really would want to be careful not to damage the hands of a monk.
Its umbrella covers both clerical and lay people. It’s organized by Sin Type (Luxury, Avarice, Envy) and the individual sin/penance combos can be directed at The Royal Whomever or a specific class, social position, age and/or gender.
I think it’s fair to say that they were more likely to be followed in monastic communities where everyone was necessarily subject to the Discipline and had everyone else looking over their shoulder 24/7.
