Neither. I was not adding to your point, though it's obvious we were not in disagreement overall. I was making a related point in my posts, that whether or not you think the custom is unnecessary, it is necessary in some situations. I think that yes, your direct use of this phrase: "stereotypical southern etiquette" introduced the topic.

Then why did you imagine that our discussion was "frigid?" There's nothing "frigid" about an overall agreement.

Because your tone is generally frigid (in regards to this instance). If you don't agree, all I know to say is that is how it appears to me.

Hmmm...I don't know what you mean so I'll go by what frigid means:

There's nothing warm or particularly endearing about most topics on GC. People who are looking for some personal investment or fluffy fairies when I type need to just find excitement when I use curse words. Cheers.

(I really think Alumiyum is just backpedaling.)
