My inlaws gave me weird looks constantly when I was over there.
My family is VERY big on manners, so they were amazed how overly pleasant and polite I was to people in shops, restaurants, and random people on the street.
Also, my goodbye to people serving me - "Thanks so much. See ya later", used to get raised eyebrows. When I asked my Mother In Law about it she said ..."but you wont see them later, will you?"
"Sure" is not acceptable in my house. Neither is "What?" when you dont hear or didnt understand.....Although, Tyler saying "Pardon?" seven times in a row because he didnt get it, is still very annoying.
