Well that was no where near the story I expected... having seen it, ...my women's intuition is going into overdrive, ...but it's merely speculation without any established facts as it's foundation, ...so I'll keep it to myself.
It's kinda funny how people react to others who either can't or won't say the Pledge of Allegiance isn't it?
When I was 13, I spent the longest summer of my life in Connecticut with my aunt, and her minister husband. I had to attend Vacation Bible school every single ^%$%^%$%^# day. They always started it off with the pledge of Allegiance. My sister and I would be looking at each other like wtf?! We'd fumble all over ourselves trying to get through it. Finally we just stopped pretending. We simply didn't know the words. My Aunt was horrified that we could not recite the Pledge of Allegiance. lol. I mean what kid doesn't know the Pledge of Allegiance right? It didn't occur to my Aunt that as Canadians, we don't say it, ...let alone say it every morning. She probably thought it was mandatory in every elementary school all over the planet.
This is the same Aunt whose husband told me that "The devil will make you pregnant if you wear shorts like that?" I was a precocious little kid and I turned to my uncle and said "Oh really?! Tell me Uncle [blank] exactly how would the devil make me pregnant by wearing short shorts?" He turned red in the face. I swear I could see him flush. He got very uncomfortable, stammered out.. "Ask your Aunt" then got up from the table and practically ran from the kitchen. My sister and I howled with laughter to see his response.
