Congratulate a person for someone else's birthday

Complaining about the weather

Telling you how much they paid for something

Mashing food together

Celebrate birthday by sitting in a circle with tea/coffee and cake

Weird toilets

Birthday calendars in the bathroom

Burping, farting, nose picking

We talk about the weather a lot

A lot of times way too direct
