I believe people who chew with their mouths open have stupid parents, are stupid themselves, and will have stupid children.

This got way worse after I moved south. Say what you mean and mean what you say. I think āget to the pointā is always on the tip of my tongue, especially at work.

Itās like this in Texas too, sort of where south meets west.
You just have to read between the leaves. Your responsibility to learn how to be Roman when in Rome.
Maybe not true for the antebellum south but in many regions of the SW, keep in mind the Wild West was only a couple generations ago.
Yankees with attitudes would have been shot in bar brawls and duels just for talking the way they do, and we still maintain encapsulated manners from an era where a sharp tongue was tempered by the knowledge that everyone has a gun.
Adding to the list:
- when people move to Texas and then work to make Texas like home instead of just going home.

I guess I interpreted your original complaint differently since you also mentioned baby showers and birthday parties and contrasted that with āmilestones tied to achievement.ā If youāre just saying that too many people spend too much money that they donāt have on wedding celebrations, I completely agree. My wife and I spent less than $2k on our wedding including venue, food, decorations, and clothing.
But I absolutely think that that weddings, birthday parties, and baby showers are good celebrations to have when the budgets are kept well within the means of the planners.

Marrying some who has never had sex before will cause problems later in your relationship.

I mentioned it another thread but I still canāt believe golf was invented by the same folks who invented Kabar tossing.
Yep.
I donāt disagree but this has worked well for my cousin (to date).
The frequency at which you update your Facebook status with your daily musings is a direct measure of how messed up you are.
Oasis are potentially the most overrated band in the history of rock music. They are Spice Girls for āthe ladsā, or for people just holding onto the 90s in a cringy way. 50 years from now they should be known as nothing more than a band that had a couple of catchy crowd singalongs. Some people call Liam the last remaining rockstar, to me heās just a derivative caricature.
Eggy custard rice is the best bulking meal. Eggs done in the microwave only enough to slightly cook them but still 90% runny. The way it lubricates the rice making it super easy to go down can make you get a surprising amount of food and protein healthily and quickly.
All of us guys following most top-flight sports are idiots. Integrity has gone. Gone are the days of proper coaches, proper scouting unearthing a gem, loyalty, and all that. Money. Money. Money. Sure, anomalies can happen but most clubs are just making up the numbers and feeding the biggest spenders. And all the fans of these biggest clubs do is gloat about how big their club is and how much better their club is despite having 5x of the resources of the team they managed to beat. I feel emotionally connected to some top clubs, but the real sport is in the lower leagues.

People who only really like one genre of music are usually fairly rubbish.
People who put vinegar on salad and or curry and etc are supremely egregious (sorry Mum!!!).
Americanās who do the whole PERIOD thing, usually at the end of a really self-righteous speech should be heavily mocked and same goes for Brits who say: END OF!! within a similar context.
