Is It Just Me???

I always find it a little annoying when people claim things that everyone does.  For example, I just read on a blog that "brunch is a 'city' thing"....umm no, brunch is not a 'city' thing.  People do brunch all over.  I grew up on a dairy farm/small town house in the midwest.  We have been doing brunch my entire life.  We have brunch on Sundays, on Easter, on Mother's Day, Christmas, house warming parties, heck..we do brunch all the time.  We have restaurants that have brunch....I had brunch in California before, in Colorado, and in Florida....(in non-big cities).  It just seems weird...brunch is something everyone does.  It is like saying "wearing jeans is a Wisconsin 'thing'"...of course people wear jeans all over the world.....

I could see how surfing would be a coastal 'thing' or skiing could be a mountain 'thing' that makes sense.  But brunch being a city thing does not.  Also, Football is not only a 'Southern thing'....coming to my state during football season....it is just as crazy....Football is a 'lots 'o people thing'.


Can Football be played basically anywhere???? yes    (I know it is not played in Antartica or somewhere..just bear with me)

Can surfing be done in Oklahoma?  No

That is what I think. 

I have also found it weird that sweet tea is a southern thing.....there was a pitcher of sweet tea in my grandma and mom's fridge my entire life.  Restaurants here serve sweet tea....I don't consider it a 'southern' thing...I consider it something to drink.
