I am in the deep south as a transplant and it has taken some getting used to.
Why is it called an ink pen? Don't all pens run on ink? I can see ballpoint pen, felt tip pen, sharpie, but why Ink Pen?
New and improved siggy coming soon (which could mean after Christmas)
my biggest baffling southern tradition is the way that people think that "what church do you go to?" is an appropriate response to "hi, my name is...." what the heck is up with that? after years and years of being an agnostic down here i've learned to take great amusement from their reactions when i tell them "the united satanist cathedral right downtown, why do you ask?"
We are Catholic so you can imagine it gets a great reception down here, NOT! I had a neighbor continue to expound upon all of the offerings of her huge Baptist church even after I answered her question by telling her we were members of our local and ONLY Catholic church in a city of 50,000/area of 100,000. But you know, we Catholics do "all that weird stuff" - seriously someone here said that to me. Like honoring Mary is such a bad thing. You could do a whole lot worse than to teach your kids to honor mothers. But I digress....
We also hear "have you found a church home?". The whole idea of shopping around is so foreign to me. I am from up north where you are whatever religion you are: Catholic, Presbyterian, Unitarian, Jewish, whatever, you go to that church or not at all, and no one really talks about it.
On the upside, people are really nice and being invited to their church is a whole lot better than some creepy neighbor who lets his dog poop on my lawn or complains about the noise I make dragging out the garbage cans or something like that.
But its definitely the south. Our next door neighbor bagged an 8 point buck one Sunday morning and strung it up in his backyard to clean it before church. We live in a subdivision, not out in the country. They are really nice neigbors though, besides the gory stuff.....
LOL I should start telling people I am wiccan. And my kid is not allowed to read anything but Harry Potter books. And that we DRINK (OMG) on Sunday. Where I live you cannot go out to a restaurant and drink a beer (or any alcohol) on Sunday.
