Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

I remember a mini-scandal about a year ago about how Samuel L. Jackson was cheating on his wife right out in public, when it turned out that their adult daughter had decided to take him out for brunch

Or there's Morgan Freeman, who is marrying his step-granddaughter. (WTF?!?!)

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Well, gee ... I guess the group Buffista tattoo trip at the next F2F is out, huh?

And I LOVE that after all these warning signs - many of which would point to "normal" people - they say:

It is important to remember that just because someone’s speech,actions, beliefs, appearance, or way of life is different; it does not mean that he or s he is suspicious.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

That is the very definition of suspicious!

FBI says paying cash for coffee is a sign of terrorist intent

I do this all the time. Is using cash no longer normal?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Is using cash no longer normal?

Sure it is.

If you hate America!

Because books.

I just took cash out the other day, because I hate running into WaWa or for fast food and using my card if it's less than $5. I know I *can* do it, it just feels wrong.

Anyway, I like cash. Much easier to really see how much you're spending.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

So New Orleans is full of terrorist small business owners? This place is still largely a cash-based economy. My *GP* only takes cash or check, no credit cards.

The coffee store around the corner only takes cash and doesn't serve decaf; I suspect they tend towards anarchy.

In all seriousness, I am suspicious of places that don't take cards, I actually assume they are doing something dodgy with taxes.
