One of the reasons Catholics like the 1962 Roman Missal is because it does not allow for this kind of ad libbing nonsense.
Creativity during the Mass can be active or passive aggression. It become a political meme. It becomes an opinion piece. It becomes, how shall I say this, RIDICULOUS!

Re: the video - Where is their spirit of inclusion? They left out the tax collector on the back row. My previous NO parish had banned unscreened petitions for this reason. Our were less humorous.
The Pope just issued another letter on the Sacred Liturgy, Desiderium desidaravi, a word salad which criticizes a celebrant's "personalizing" the Mass.
