       Upside Down Flowers!?

       Okay, I'm going straight to the source here and asking you guys
       if Eastern Europeans carry their flowers upside down. I'd loved
       to get Gryz's take on this but she took her bouquet and left us.
       The relevant section starts where I have copied the link and
       goes for a minute or so.

       I don't think Germans qualify as Eastern Europeans, really, but
       I/we do that as well. Unless it was my wedding, of course. I
       think I was told as a child the flowers would hold up better
       that way. Gravity and things.

       I should have said any European.
       That's interesting, Alharacas. I always viewed this manner of
       carrying flowers as a sign that the flowers aren't going to
       anyone important. It's kind of like it's a chore, something
       you'd rather skip altogether. Or maybe they're dead and you're
       taking them to the trashcan.

       Oh my god, it's true. I've always been told the same as
       Alharacas. I think even the explanation I got was equally
       thorough and informative: "gravity and things". You don't mess
       with gravity.

       Gravity trumps 'things?' It's always the sneaky 'things' {
       typically that would be bed bugs } that you have to watch out
       for.

       (Whispers) I can't talk about "things". He gets all funny.
