your country major traditions that you dont do?

[Spinneret]

for example not watching the super bowl

 

[Lord Manhammer]

I do not say the Pledge of Allegiance. I neither stand nor remove my hat for the Star Spangled Banner. I don't celebrate 4th of July. I do, however, watch the Super Bowl.

 

[disneychrista]

We don’t put up a Christmas tree or exchange gifts.

 

[Meriweather]

no football, baseball or any other sport

 

[ronandannette]

I hate Tim Horton’s. There. I said it.

 

[Praying Colonel]

Is Halloween uniquely American? Probably not, but it's my least favorite holiday and I'm glad it's over. There, I said it.

Most folks around the world, at least from what I've heard, consider Halloween to be a Western/American holiday.

 

[TippyThomas]

I don't really celebrate any holidays. I'm very socially awkward and celebrating alone is kinda depressing so I just roll through them like they don't exist for the most part.

 

[easyas123]

We don't do traditional funerals, I think that is about it.

Oh, and we don't wear pajamas in public (a tradition I'd like to see done away with )

 

[E&Cmom]

Care about Hockey.

I am also not a fan of Tim Hortons.

It so annoys me that Tim’s is thought of a some national icon.
25 years ago there were maybe 2 in Winnipeg. There were way more Robin’s donuts than Tim’s.

Really good marketing from Tim’s!

See I’m an American and I love Tim’s but hate Dunkin Donuts.

If I buy coffee I get it from McDonald’s,

 

[TiggerTrigger]

I don't drink coffee.

I don't know if it's necessarily a country specific tradition, but everyone acts like I'm from another planet when they find out I'm not a coffee person. With the way Starbucks and competitor coffee is marketed and promoted, coffee consumption is very much a part of the culture. I recently just invested in a small coffee maker for my kids because I'm tired of them spending on Starbucks and McDonalds. Years ago, my SIL stayed a few days with us and was horrified that we didn't own a coffee maker. My dad has been surviving on instant coffee packets for years when coming to visit.

Never tried it. Can’t get past the smell. It gets annoying being offered coffee so often. Like it’s assumed I drink it.

 

[Neapolitan Ice Cream]

I've never trick or treat'd

 

[Cannot_Wait_4Disney]

I hate Tim Horton’s. There. I said it.

And I avoid McDonald's. and Dunkin Donuts.

 

[Scootin'By]

New Years Eve. It's just another night. So what if the calendar turns over?! The earth made another successful revolution around the sun. It wasn't like it was ever in question!

 

[luvnwdwgal]

Hate coffee, don’t really care for sports, rarely eat fast food,

 

[Moliphino]

You can get kicked out of Massachusetts for that.

Dunkin used to be better than it is now. They've cheaped out on a lot of stuff over the years.
