Just one of those things kids learn at church, at least in the areas I grew up in. Kinda like the "cool S" but not quite as universally iconic.

OC Supertones and the Insyderz??? I didn't even bother mentioning those, but hell yeah those were my absolute jam!

I'm a former Christian, if that counts.

DC Talk - the album Jesus Freak is peak Christian Rock, but the earlier, hokey rap stuff was fun, too.

Five Iron Frenzy - ska band that I absolutely adored as a teen. Saw them live at a reunion tour a few years ago (as an atheist) and had a great time.

Audio Adrenaline - more Christian Rock, just a good all around band.

Relient K - really fun and melodic punk/alternative. Went more rock than punk over time, but always solid quality. They made one of the better Christmas albums on offer, too.

And just for fun, try singing Amazing Grace to the tune of Gilligan's Island!

Ooooooh. Interesting. Thanks for sharing!

Yeah I guess I just meant like... logistically?

Ports of entry don't move, and shipping containers are huge. I'm probably just not thinking flexible enough.

is that even possible?

I was a sophomore in high school. A senior girl I vaguely knew but wasn't friends with, apropos of nothing, leans over to me and goes, "You're nice. I like nervous, twitchy virgins."

I don't know if I've ever been more baffled in my life. I don't even remember if I responded or what I did after that. I just remember thinking, "what the heck just happened?"

Oh. That made me uncomfortable. 😬

They're rare, but they do exist.

I get compliments on my hugs on the reg. Well, less regularly as I get older and meet new people less often, but still. Being a good hugger is somehow a weirdly rare skill?

Beats me! But I'm unbothered, so no worries.
