Haha...my mom's co-workers in Washington were pretty much the spitting image of the lady you described, but then again, she worked in a clinic and those same co-workers could probably rattle off the biological processes behind said loud noxious fumes in a second.
They're a lot more relaxed about what's okay and what's not...personally, I kind of like being a little more uptight about those kinds of things. Kept me out of a lot of trouble.
And yes, southerners (at least as far as TX vs. WA goes) are a LOT nicer to strangers. Found that out the hard way when I switched to a school in WA late in the year...no friends for like, a month.
Gotta agree with PhoenixAzul's advice, though...seriously, things would be a lot better if I didn't feel like I was greeting a dead fish when I gave someone a darn handshake.
ETA: LMAO--
Hahahahaa...wtf?
