The ritual requires a bell, book, and candle. Unfortunately, your car broke down in the middle of nowhere, and you have a cat toy, your car manual, and a spark plug. It’ll still work, right? Probably?
bell book & candle is for an exorcism, right? they work because they symbolically invoke the church. well, now you’re symbolically invoking your cat and your car. idk how powerful your car is, but your cat probably has it covered.
Originally for an excommunication, IIRC, I think the exorcism version is a pop culture mutation.
who you gonna excommunicate out on highway 3 south of faribault, lory? a raccoon?
Still thinking of a TikTok I saw a year ago where a girl with a shellfish allergy got a crab tattooed on her thigh with one of the claws exactly where her Epi Pen should be stabbed into her so she’d be able to wheeze out “stab the crab” if someone else needed to use her pen on her. Absolutely obsessed. The epitome of work smarter not harder.
