I hadn't said the (US) Pledge of Allegiance since the 1970s but I attended my local school board meeting last year and they kicked off with it. I couldn't even remember which fucking hand to put over my heart, let alone the actual words of it.

I tried to refuse to say it because it was unconstitutional with the under God part and they made me do it anyway, which I tried to dispute because it has been upheld as a right under the First Amendment but I didn't really care enough to pursue it. That teacher was a geriatric veteran and would have been stubborn too.
It's burned into my brain now.
