Insanely Irritating Transplant Habits Idahoans Will Never Be Okay

Unless you hail from a stock of uncultured swine, there are certain things decent people just don't do.

10 Things You Wouldn't Say or Do to a Stranger You Just Met

Tell a stranger how to raise their kids
Treat wait staff poorly
Disrespect their faith or political beliefs
