You Know You're a True Rennie if...

[Adriana Rose]

mwahaha. That is great!

Right now i am at the other end of that I have to tell my kiddo that he cannot wear his pirate coat to school. It would be too much of a distraction, because we all know that preschoolers have the attention span of pixies on speed!

[The Rabbi]

On a more seriouse note When you have to explain that you have friends that are druids, wiccan,buddhist, etc, and that we can wish each other a happy holiday in the proper context without offending each others religion. RENNIES ROCK when it comes to acceptance of others oh who am I kidding we just rock.

'If you don't shape up I will follow you around at school in pirate garb' is not an idle threat in your household. 

Gonna have to keep this in mind to use with my 12 year old.

I wonder if that would work with my 37 year-old. He's a teacher...but, it probably wouldn't faze him at all...he's nearly as weird as I am.

My kid would dress up with me. Catapistal, cutlass and all!

[Lady Renee Buchanan]

when your husband buys you a pearl ring with tiny diamond chips around it for Christmas, and the first words out of his mouth when you open it are "I picked this one because I thought it would go with your noble garb."

Oh yes Renee!   And when I opened my gorgeous pin with bleeding hearts (flowers) dripping from it I squeeled.....  " I have to make a gown for this!"

Your kids school is having a spirit week & one of the days is 'Time Warp Day'. They're expecting the kids to dress in 50s, 60s or even 80s style. Your child (daughter/11) is going to wear her Ren garb. Talk about a time warp!!

...whilst walking through the airport, and you hear food vendors hawking their wares, and you think, "Man, they could learn a lesson or two from the hawkers at Renaissance festivals..."

[dreamwalker]

When you wear chemises to bed on a regular basis....

[Adriana Rose]

When your hurting your faire friends are the first ones to cheer you up.

[The Rabbi]

When driving a friends vehichle you get pulled over by the local PD and they ask "Do you have any wepons" Then as he looks at you shrugs his shoulders and sais "Never mind answering that I dont have time for you to pull them all out." The first time he ever stopped me I was in garb and had 6 other folks garb and assorted weapons. He finally asked me "Is there anything else" to which I replied "Honestly officer I dont know" He let me go both times.

[Sitara]

When you get pulled over on the way home from a long weekend of faire and you overhear the officer telling your husband, "Look, you seem like a nice guy and I REALLY don't wan't to take you to jail while you're in a kilt..."

[Hausfrau Monica]

you look over the shoulder of someone reading the paper and see the "sunshine girl" in a corset...go in for a closer look and say "that would never stand up to a day of faire"
