We knew we were ordering from our local Chinese delivery place too much when they showed up to our new apartment and they a) remarked that we had moved and b) said that our cat had gotten fatter.

When I was a low-paid movie theater employee, we were probably the last theater in the US that actually answered the phone instead of having a recording. We had a regular caller, the foot pervert, who would call, want to know movie times and what shoes we were wearing. He never got sexual or disgusting.
Because it sounds romantic and unoriginal on the surface, but reality bears out quite differently. Then you realize that, hey, there’s a reason dinner/drinks is standard first date stuff rather than hiking. It’s not because no one ever thought of hiking before!
You equating BLM with Nazism says all there is to know about you.
Here is my issue, they don’t come to any of our events anymore: Holiday parties, random dinner invites (planned weeks in advance), and adult birthday parties. I feel like they are being bad friends by not coming my events, but guilting me into their kids bday party. Not once have I heard them say we know you don’t…
Yep. Also, a way to be smug at you about how they know the true meaning of life now that they have children. Really, they didn’t know love until they gazed into BarkelyTaylorThomas’ eyes for the first time. It’s magical.
To be fair, there were still people who decided that it was their place to act like assholes, but we were drunk, so we shut it right the fuck down.
The smartest thing we did at our wedding was have cocktail hour before the ceremony to ensure that nobody would give a fuck about anything but having fun all night.
I thought I was done with Weddings, but now I have found something much worse; being invited to a baby’s 1st, 2nd, or 3rd Birthday when you have no kids.
I have to ask, is inviting childless couples to your 1 year old’s bday just asking for a free gift like inviting co-workers and family you don’t know well to your…
Sister got hers. Now she’s saying “FUCK YOU” to everyone trying to get theirs. Are you a Republican too?
A bit of that. But also it’s just that we have a lot of people who’d want to come. And so even trying to build a list of “fun elopement” people started getting over the 50+ mark, at which point you go, “Okay, so we’ll just have to rent a restaurant, and...” and then you realize you’re basically still planning a…
I’m 29 and getting married this year, and some of our friends that got married “younger” (like 25/26) already have this attitude. How convenient that you managed to clean up on wedding and baby gifts before declaring everyone else a moron and refusing to support them with even a modicum of enthusiasm.
Ooh, a hipstery hot-take on weddings! Just what we all needed. “*I* got married before Facebook. *I* served my guests champagne out of a truck bed before Pinterest told everyone that vintage is cool again. *I* think that everyone else should just elope in pajama pants, with no family or friends present, because four…
Nope, not just you. I have three grandkids and I do love them, but I just do not have the grandparent gene. I do not post endless pics of my grandkids and sorry but I don’t feel that being a grandparent is the greatest thing that ever happened to me. Worst sin? I actually like my kids better than my grandkids. Why…
Married people who are anti-wedding... oof. “Got mine, now fuck you” is such a nasty thing to say, especially to unmarried people who hope to get married one day, and CHRIST, I’M SORRY that we can’t all find compatible romantic partners on your timeline.
“The wedding itself was a DIY shitshow, as basically described in the article. I ran myself ragged throwing a party for 50 people (and all the extra kids they thought it was OK to bring without asking). I spent months upon months crafting, cooking, sewing. And for what? It was a cheap, shitty wedding in basically…
There are times when I really hate being single and alone.
So the next time you are treated by a physician they don’t need to show you respect?
Amen. As a non-uterus haver, I’ve been pro-choice, but watching my wife go through pregnancy with twins and then with another, there is no way to justify forcing someone to go through that process against their will.
