Well, that was certainly a wild weekend and after everything that went down, I hope you're a bit sober because there is a lot to unpack today. FYI, I'm not sober but that's beyond the point, let's get into this steaming pile. So Angi was at the show event at Cork & Kerry on Friday when Southpaw came in and tried to knock Tommy Hawk out of her DM's and then she went to a Top 5 of All Time Metallica show (when pressed what was knocked out of her top 5, she didn't know because she barely knows what planet she's on most days.) This was followed by a trip to Serb Fest which got her thinking about culture and created a Daily Discussion Topic for us. Angi sought to hear about funny or weird things from people's cultures so we started with hers. Promaja, which is a superstition about leaving two windows open at the same time and them causing a health risk while also allowing for the devil to come in. However, if you tuck your shirt into your pants, it keeps the devil from being able to get to your kidneys. Right, so her people are nuts, let's get to something more grounded in reality from Marris. He explained to us why smoke alarms are always chirping in black peoples houses. Aside from the fact that they never get changed, it has to do with different ones going off at separate times and not knowing which is the one that is going bad so they all just get ignored. In fact, he has vivid memories of being at his grandma's house and playing in the basement while that familiar chirp was going. I also have vivid memories but they mostly come from playing video games online. Anig and Michael both explained that this is a no go in their respective houses because it makes their dogs go nuts. Speaking of Michael, his contribution as a Brit is how much they love to use the "c" word. I personally think I must have been British in a past life because that is my favorite word and I use it to pepper pretty much all of my sentences off air. As for his white American side, he offered the love of Ed Hardy and unseasoned white chicken. I'd offer up mine but I don't know anything interesting about being Lithuanian, Polish and Greek so let's just go right to the Request Line. Kristen is Armenian as they have the evil eye. This is used to ward off bad stuff but if you happen to not be wearing yours, her 98 year old grandmother will pinch your butt which also works as protection it seems. Erin was married to a Serb for 16 years and learned that sitting on concrete causes hemorrhoids and eating popsicles in the winter will give you a sore throat. Chris is Scottish and told us how the unicorn is the national animal of Scotland. He assumed they picked it because they drank too much. Jeff called into discuss how Polack's are cheap and always trying to save money. Eric is Sicillian and he has to get out of bed right foot first or else!
