Things I may be guilty of saying that would make a traddie guy run

I did the list of things not to say to a woman on a date. [A late edition to that, from a recent experience: "I'm spiritual but not religious." When I asked, with an evil twinkle in my eye, if the person in question did a centering prayer every day, awkward silence ensued. Mission accomplished.]

Larry at Acts of the A did "
10 Things Your Date Might Say That Show They’re Catholyc".

After jokingly using #1, below, in an email with Matt, he said, watch it, you'll use that on a date and end up on some traddie guy's worst-date-ever list.

So with that, I give you:
Things I may be guilty of saying that would make a traddie guy run

1. What the f is the Internet? (It's a Jay & Silent Bob reference; I credit one of my co-workers for hooking me on using it randomly)
2. White chapel veils... please. I only wear a black mantilla at Mass. (And I rarely ever wear white in general, too. If you don't understand the symbolism of white vs. black chapel veils, google it.)
3. I dated an agnostic for two years in college (true story.)
4. Six kids or bust!
5. My dad has 12 siblings; and I have 84 first cousins (add myself and my 5 siblings, we round out the cousin total at an even 90.)
6. Oh I think you dated one of my friends... why did she refer to you as a weasel?
7. Have you ever seen that episode of The Office where...
8. I'll be in front of Planned Parenthood, we'll go from there...
