Many monastic orders have traditionally offered temporary and permanent vows by which novices could become 'professed' (full) monks. These vows (in the Christian traditions) can be grouped into the categories of poverty, chastity and obedience.

If you were to take the monk metaphor a little further, which of the following vows would you consider taking upon yourself (or would want imposed on someone else)?

  • A vow of Silence (like [id://Erudil])
  • A vow of Patience and Kindness
  • A vow of Brevity
  • A vow of Spellchecking
  • A vow of Helpfulness
  • A vow of Irreverence
  • A vow of Accuracy
  • A vow of Ingenuity and Laziness
  • A vow of Silliness and Frivolity
