Oh man. Religion AND Politics, and we just met these folks 5 minutes ago!

I try to say "No religion or politics," but some people are so insistent. They seem to have preconceived notions that they want me to validate. I'll take a smoker, egotist, drunk, cat lover anyday...
I'm with you! Being from the South, people in other parts of the country think we Southerners are all dumb, bathe only on Saturday, and are racist. I'm "one for three", I do take a bath every day. . . we just empty the water on Saturdays!!
