"I found it extremely funny in Macedonia to introduce a new bride to her new home:  

as soon as she crossed the threshold, a noose was thrown around her neck and her husband dragged her along,

 giving her an object lesson in the animal obedience expected of her; when crossing the first hearthstone,

 she was forced to hit her head against the wall, as a warning about the punishment she could expect if she misbehaved."
