I chose "never" because I never pinched people - in fact, I never even heard of the custom until I was well into my adult-hood. Not because I still pinch people.
Here's a story. I didn't know about the pinching people for not wearing green thing. No one I grew up with did it, and the first time someone pinched me was a coworker at Abercrombie. He was a big guy, and he pinched me hard. Like hard enough to leave a welt, so out of shock I hauled off and kicked him in the balls.
It wasn't until he was down on the floor in tears that another coworker explained the pinching thing to me. I sorta felt bad, but not really because he really freakin' hurt my arm.
