That's right it's culture week here on the boards! Now while the National Geographic Channel has shows, we get to have a discussion! Have you noticed a Taboo in your life recently? No? Well then you need to go outside, and after your eyes adjust to "real" light, look around! Being such a reclusive computer geek can even be a taboo.
List away. :rolling:

OK, I'll start it off (edit: oops, not quite) by actually being serious :eek: (but this topic could be a prime candidate to be moved to Whatnots :p )
Invading people's space - basically standing too close to someone else during a conversation.

Cursing, or discussing aloud sexual activities.
Unless you're among a group of male friends, then often times that's all that is discussed...

Here's a nice discussion of linguistic and cultural taboos from a while back in here.

Dicussions on what people think is 'taboo' is 'taboo' for me.
