Weird TraditionsTalking with a friend yesterday about school dinners, she suddenly said, "We had to march into the dining room behind the School Band... except on Thursdays." Since all of us were now staring, she qualified this with, "...on Thursdays there was no wind section. It was a tradition."
What weird stuff have you been made to do "because it's a tradition."

"Turn your camera off"Around a year ago, me and a friend were attending the local picture-theatre, to see Shrek 2 I believe. Anyway, when the anti-piracy no-cameras-allowed warnings popped up, some "joker" behind us decided to show off his rapier wit. "Better turn your camera off!" he remarked, no doubt with a huge grin on his face and the hope that some comedy-scout from the BBC was in the audience.
We spent a good five minutes containing ourselves, and have made the same comment at every film we've attended since.
