I always say "where you find four Baptists you will find a Fifth".
Me, I got a nose like Dustin Hoffman. Been teased about it since I can remember. Helped me to learn how to take it. I am also pretty good at handing it out too. Coming from Florida to New York it was a real change to have someone get in your face and tell you exactly what they think. It is very refreshing compared to the sweet to your face/stab you in the back that is the way of many people in the South.

Yeah,well I got you beat,Sport.My hooknose is even bigger than yours
But remember,a large nose is a sign of strong character,Napoleon himself chose his Marshals partly based upon their prominent proboscii.
Agreed re:your take on hypocrisy,learned about it fairly early in life.
There was an Episcopal preacher who affected a quiet,neatly groomed facade with precise,flawless Locust Valley lockjaw,as some call our way of speaking,interspersed liberally with much criticism of the permissiveness of the times and how parents should be more severe in disciplining their children,the evils of drink,etc.
To cut it short,though it would make a great novel,turns out one incredulous fellow heard the preacher drunk,boasting about screwing a well-off married gal AND her daughter and soaking the married broad for "donations"so he could buy a sailboat for himself.
The gal herself ratted him out when he started sniffing out other gash and called off their trysts.
