Showing my heritage

Events of yesterday, at the craft supply store of record:

[livejournal.com profile] kittenpants: idly browsing a sale bin, pulls out a packet of brightly colored grommets. So [livejournal.com profile] biscuitgod says that people are putting rivets and grommets in invitations now, so that they look like hangtags. Not that they run any string or ribbon or anything through them, they just have grommets.

Me: I can think of occasions for which riveted and grommeted invitations would be entirely appropriate.

[livejournal.com profile] kittenpants: Yes, but if I were going to make grommeted invitations, I'd be doing it for some purpose, not because it was the trendy thing to do.

Me: Could be an industrial fetish party. That would require riveted invitations.

[livejournal.com profile] kittenpants: You'd send printed invitations to a fetish party? I think your Southern is showing.

Me: Right. Sorry.

No, see, Missouri is not a southern state. That is a vicious lie perpetrated by Yankees, who don't want to claim Missouri as their own, for some reason. It is clearly not a Southern state, because if it were, people here would send engraved invitations to their fetish parties.

See, I was going to say that, but it's better coming from a Yankee mouth :-P
The fact is though, that I don't want them either. I think perhaps Texans are a breed apart.

This, I know for a fact, is true. That annexation to the Union experiment . . . not sure it's working out, you know?
