    People wearing crosses are pagans because the cross derives from pagan rituals. Their fear of the cross is so strange but it's all down to brainwashing. Their fear of disco music and rap.

    Conventions! Digesting the food at the proper time we have gleaned from the faithful and discreet slave

    Having to wear your DC lapel badge in a very conspicuous fashion from sunrise on Friday till sunset on Sunday.

    Working in the hoagie assembly line at the convention...putting the cheese on was the best job!

    Yeah, that was one of the reasons I mentioned crossdressing. Also for women wearing slacks. I remember how bent out of shape they got back in the 60's when pant suits came out. Also, during the bra burning era, that was a big commotion too. I think it is still a big no-no for women not to wear bras or nylons. Men wearing earrings. Women wearing a tie (back in the 80's it was the style for a while). Men with hair over their ears.

    The have definite ideas of what constitutes male and female and it is a world crisis when anyone transgresses against those mores.
