We used to have greased watermelon water polo at summer campzengirl said:Nothin beats a good ole fashioned demolition derby, well... with the exception of the greased pig chase
When I was a kid, we'd go to the fair every summer, and they'd grease up about a dozen pigs, and have about a dozen kids chasing after the greased up pigs in this great big ole mud pit, whoever caught a pig won the prizeChikkenNoodul said:We used to have greased watermelon water polo at summer camp

It was funny, the kids at the fair were the most polite kids (in such large numbers) that I've seen in a LOOOONG time, it was amazing.
Kids bumped into us and actually apologized!
country folk are typically more well mannered and socially capable than their urban counterparts. It seems that the more populated an area, the more annonymous people become so their interactions are more rude and stuck up whereas in the country you actually know your neighbors and if you're rude, they'll not hesitate to rat you out or even better, serve your licks themselvesChikkenNoodul said:

I tell you, going to that area is like stepping back in time 40 years.Bubbles said:what what what??? that's unheard of these days.
Yeah, people aren't all in your face all day long in the country - makes it easier to be friendly. And you really do depend on each other, it's not like there's 15 other pizza places to go to if you have a problem with one of them...zengirl said:country folk are typically more well mannered and socially capable than their urban counterparts.
