Almost all the accoutrements for a wedding - venue, food, flowers, decorations, and many other items that may or may not be present, not to mention the hotel and transportation arrangements made by one’s guests - are non-refundable and non-negotiable.

ALTERNATE TRANSLATION BOT:

For me, it’s not the taste, it’s the smell - something about that smell just goes straight to the lizard part of my brain and says firmly “This is going to make you sick,” so I feel nauseous before it’s even hit my lip. The only other thing that’s given me that feeling was natto, the japanese slimy fermented soybeans.

All I need to know about Johnnie Walker is that when I lived in Sudan, you could get exactly two types of alcohol on the black market - “White,” which was no-brand shitty vodka, and “Red,” which was Johnnie Walker Red Label. I had one sip of the stuff and resigned myself to drinking a lot of shitty no-brand vodka for…

Hey, now, being so snobbish you refuse to learn the basic facts of various normal parts of life (and/or pretending that you don’t know those basic facts to prove some sort of weird point to strangers) knows no gender, color, creed, or socioeconomic status.

Nah, I double-majored with eye rolling.

Whereas I never forget how many dolts with an Opinion do.

Reading your comments, I’m literally sure that’s true.

Um, who do you think you’re supposed to report the situation to if, for example, you come home to find all your stuff has been stolen but the theif is gone? I’m not saying the dress thing was an appropriate reason to call 911, but actual theft is exactly and specifically an appropriate reason to do so.

Right? Whether the specific instance is something you approve of or not, if you can’t empathize with someone paying money for a good or service and then receiving no goods and no services and having their money literally disappear with no accountability and through no fault of their own, then you’ve got bigger…

It’s not just the cost of the dress - it’s also the fact that they are almost always made-to-measure (you pick out the dress you like which is then altered to fit your measurements exactly) or heavily altered both for fit and for taste (you can often get the peripherals of the dress like sleeves, sashes, and other…

It’s really funny that you named perhaps the only two animals in the whole aquarium that could possibly even be aware of their captivity to single out for being okay with it. If you think the little anemones and rock shrimp are doing the species-appropriate version of bawling their eyes out to be in a tank, you may be…

If people would stop making dumbass comments scolding the rest of us for their personal failure to be able to think more than one thing at a time, I’d find it a lot easier to empathize with them.

Listen, someone further down the thread posted a (clothed, publicly shared) photo of the lady in question, and let’s just say that if she was willing to consensually and privately share nude pics of herself with me, I’d be fucking delighted. The fact that someone stole them from her and is now bandying them about for…

That Jesus is definitely 100% one of the Tender Men discussed in another Jezebel post today. Beware of him.

So many questions, but most pressing is, what’s with the name? Sassy is a label that indicates what’s in the can. Brio reads as something come up with by a working group and then focus grouped to death to ensure that it means nothing, says nothing, is the de rigueur two syllables and wins the contest for “most likely…

BRB sending this to my ex.

Right? I have very little sympathy for the woman (who can’t benefit from it), plenty for her family (who might), and the insight to know that I’ve never, even once, heard someone crowing about the “Darwin Awards” who was actually a credit to the species themselves.

There’s something so funny to me about an uninteresting grump retorting, when they’re called out, that they’re not an uninteresting grump, they just have no sense of probability and so every half-likely headline makes them fear for their family. You didn’t for a second think or expect that anyone you give a shit about…

All of these things look very fun, and eminently survivable. Look how much fun you can have without putting your life on the line!
