Default ($11) Horrible hand in SB flops top pair and rivers a second one

I've been playing pretty tight so far, and have had no opportunity to really get aggressive. Everyone else at the table has been doing a lot of limping into pots, open-limp-raising PF, and has waved big flags around for everyone to see when they had a hand post-flop.

Help on all streets appreciated.

he's getting 7:1 preflop to call, I don't see what's wrong with calling here.
