"OK OK OK. This, I get."

Has this kind of shit always happened and we just weren't told about it or is this a new, disgusting thing that's popped up? I'm a huge college football fan, but it just seems like it's getting out of control.

I didn't realize before what I needed to make my life complete until I realized I needed to see this film.

Billie Piper and James McAvoy for Claire and Mark, please.

Jesus Christ. Two seconds ago I had no idea that this could ever be a thing and now it's all I want in the world. Hey, universe? Listen to Eldritch and get on this immediately.

Also Betty White is in the film as the Grandma who makes dirty comments.

Who will Colin Firth and Hugh Grant play? I'm thinking the head dog trainer and the blind woman's sleaze-with-a-heart-of-gold boss, respectively.

This story needs to be in theaters by Christmas, directed by Richard Curtis and staring Dylan Moran as their curmudgeon neighbor.

That's the norm in Australia. You can have red wine, or white wine, or fizzy wine or beer. If you want a cocktail you can pay for it yourself, you fancy big-city bastard!

I love my wife's take on this:

For realz. I am getting married in August and we are doing it in our house. Got a case of champagne, making a big thing of sangria and getting food catered from Whole Foods. Whole thing is like $1000.

Agreed. If I get married, and if I get my way, the only food will be cake, bacon, and varieties of mac and cheese. In my mom's backyard because that is my childhood happy place.

There are ways around it. And if this couple couldn't afford it - which it seems they couldn't - they should have taken one of those ways. No one is entitled to the wedding of their dreams, no matter what bullshit they've been indoctrinated into. If you can't afford the wedding on your own, or with your parents'…

No kidding! My sister is getting married in a couple of weeks. She's not throwing a $200/plate reception because she can't afford it and she is more interested in sharing this special day with her loved ones rather than squeezing her guests for every penny that she can.

Yes. This.

What the fuck is wrong with people?!?? If you can't afford your lavish, $200/plate wedding without expecting your guests to pay for it, then don't fucking have a lavish, $200/plate wedding, you spoiled, entitled, pathetic brats.

A pox on all people who think that the amount given at a wedding should match the 'per head' cost of that wedding. A massive pox.

My nieces are Chinese and their mother isn't 100% thrilled with Mulan. (They actually had a "no Disney" rule for a while, which failed when one daughter needed speech therapy. It's ALL Disney-branded. :/ )
