Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

horse races for tailgates.

Good one! Do they tailgate at rodeos?

I chose a particularly Northern alternative to potluck...progressive dinner. I originally thought of 'hot dish' but heard Garrison Kealler's voice in my head and thought better of it.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

My problem is that New Orleans does not equal the Deep South. Some of that questionnaire was incomprehensible to me.

In general the questionnaire was focused on my town, so - North Georgia.

How about meat & three? I never encountered that until NC (though I was from the SW, which is its own insularity.)

Thrive to spite them

I wasn't really sure what they were going for with cultures so I put French (thinking of Cajun), Scottish and African (although I realize it's not one culture). And I picked covered dish, because I've seen it used multiple times in place of a potluck. Most recently at a family get together right before I moved. It was billed as a "covered dish" and different sides of the family brought different sides.

I put barbecue for food people argue about. Because they do.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

What did we put for food people argue about?

Barbecue. Also, ingredient in sauce? Vinegar.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

sarameg, on your inspiration I'm having the bangers I bought for St. Paddy's tonight, and possibly a pseudo-Guinness.
