I'm not Roman Catholic, what is Thwack?

It's what the nuns hit us with in parochial grade school, they usually used a ruler. Then if you went to a Catholic high school and you were lucky enough to be taught by the Christian Brothers, they used a paddle about 3 feet long with holes in it(for less wind resistance)... Oh to be Catholic and go to Catholic schools... a privilege I will cherish for the rest of my life. LMAO
