Why bother with the I’m Catholic, but I hate/dislike Notre Dame? My son’s teacher said that last year in front of a room full of parents.

I never get that one

Why would your son’s teacher even make a remark like that? I could understand a bit if most parents were decked out in ND gear, but I don’t assume Catholics are default ND fans by any stretch. Nor should that teacher.

With the dry cleaning customer, it was a weird conversational gambit given that I was a stranger and hadn’t said a word to hm. You’re right - it is annoying. I’m fine with goodnatured smack, but that hit me wrong this morning.
For future reference — the response is “ya, it’s pretty hard

i just wish I’d been in a more jocular mood to give it back to him. An ND win tonight would be the best revenge!
