I'm Australian and so in line with the customs of the majority of Australians, we are called to pray three times a day. We don't all have to wear the pointy hats at prayer time anymore and so the younger generations tend not to but we do have to slip on the robes still. We're not allowed kangaroo meat on Saturdays and Sundays. The main belief system of the tribe I come from is actually my signature here, it's also why we have to wear purple on Sundays. That's pretty much it though.


Yeah...nationality would be your country of origin, right? I think, thread starter, that you meant ethnicity, right?

My family is so mixed that nothing really matters. There's no one culture with which we identify. We've got English, French, Spanish, Native American, and African American. We probably have others as well that we don't know about. I could've come out looking very interesting based on all of that but unfortunately I'm just pasty white.

Customs? Well, down here in hickville, we like to eat bull testicles and ride two wheelers down the streets rather than cars. Also, we have a cow in the "yard" behind our trailer that we decorate with Christmas lights year round. Unfortunately we might have to change that, though, because some bitch who lives in our park called animal control. Apparently you're not supposed to have something electrical on animals like that, for whatever stupid reason.

Sorry, I just had to get silly with that. Carry on. Everything up until that last paragraph was actually serious.
