British mum reacts to what Americans do

[Niagara]

2. Some topics I'm guilty of, others I'm not guilty of

Smiling: We had a local county election back in November. There was an older gentleman walking towards the polling building. He had a cane and was walking extremely slow. I thought that he was by himself and I decided that I was going to open the swinging door for him. I said hello and smiled. He said hello back and smiled back. We chatted while we walked. He brought up the fact that he was walking slow. I talked about the Tortoise and the Hare and I reminded him that the tortoise won the race and not the hare. I found out he knew one of my neighbors who recently died. Anyway, to make a long story short I made a new friend that day.



Flag: I find flag worship weird.



Tailgate: I consider tailgating when a vehicle is following too closely to another vehicle. I know the buffalo bills mafia *rolls eyes* have tailgating parties with food, alcohol and table smashing. Yes, they purposely fall on tables to smash them. Again, fucking weirdos that worship football and the American flag.


Pajamas: I don't refer to them at pajamas. I refer to them as loungers. I don't wear my loungers out in public because I'm not a People of Walmart weirdo. I do sometimes shop at Walmart but I'm a normal looking person. Is the People of Walmart blog still active?



Refills: I love my coffee. It better be free refills dammit! No sugar, no cream.


Ice: I had some cosmetic work (dental bonding) done on one of my cuspid tooth about 20 years ago or so. I have some serious pain way up above this dental bonding in the gum area if I get anything too cold on it. I'm not a big fan of ice and I always order my drinks without ice. They say that ice machines in restaurants are a serious health hazard harboring mold, bacteria like E. coli and Salmonella. I don't feel like I'm missing out at all.
