DH WONT TELL ME HIS SECRETS

[hifi]

he was initiated into a lodge last night, has given me some info but refuses to tell me how they all recognise each other.
aibu, or should i carry on pestering him?

My brother joined a fraternity when he went to uni in America, and he took years to reveal the secret of the initiation ceremony. All he'd say was, "The alligator bites hard."

They had some way of recognising each other, which he finally told me after extended, Olympic-level nagging. It wasn't thrilling.

Indeed you are right, Squonk. Would not be much use if you were doing a barbecue. Trust blokes to have developed the only completely useless apron.

ILWN, I bet your secret's far more interesting

Can we start in a similar vein - drop into everyday conversations phrases like;

"Have you tried Gregg's sausage rolls, I hear they're nicer washed down with a Fruit Shoot"

"Do you have the number for Boden?"

"Do you have any cod? How does it spell?"

wobblyknicks: Sounds a bit better than {arm in the air, whilst waving boob}

And the & smile have to look just like that, all jaundiced with very plain features. . .

Take the piss mercilessly.

It does actually have a very seriuos religious aspect. (If you are talking about the masons) There was a very interesting programme on the BBC back march.

Women don't do this. women grow out of furtive robed behavior when we have children and don't even have secrets like 'how much toilet roll do you use on your bum? Can I count them?'
