Someone here posted the great idea of placing two drink tickets by each guest's place setting. They're free to use them or give them away, but you have to start paying for your drinks after you use up your tickets. It gets around the annoying open bar issues and you're not surprised by the bill.

Or start an epic game of Civilization early in the morning and play all day.

I would ditch my own wedding for that.

That's what we did, it worked out fabulously. We went to Sam's Club and bought plenty of food, one of my sister's friends offered to man the grill. Various family members pitched in to prepare dishes so it was more like a pot luck than anything else. I even made my favorite desert myself the night before. It was…

Agreed. In a week's time, my cousin and his bride are coming down (they live on the other side of the country, and had a courthouse wedding last year) to do their vows in my parents lovely yard. It will be a bbq/backyard wedding, with all the family present so we can at least have a party.

That is what my wife and I did and it was wonderful.

Shop til you find them. They are out there. And really, your beauty will translate smile or no smile. As a former depressive, I know how that dead eye look can translate-and I work to help avoid that.

Dear Susie. I'd like to know if you were unhappy with the birth video we sent you, because your baby gift did not cover the cost of the birth videographer, the hospital stay or even my nipple cream, let alone private school or little Jayden's first car. Did you not ENJOY the personalized birth video we made for you,…

I use my old dumb phone as a threat to my children. If they act up I say I'll take away their smart phones and make them use the dumb phone. Does that count as a hack? If so I should win.

THIS IS COMPLETELY MISLEADING!

If she had that skin color, NO WAY SHE WOULD HAVE THAT BOOTY!
(sarcasm)

Mine would be "She's not cute, she's just weird"

Every person with rich parents that I knew in college had

HA. She should have gotten one cupcake for herself and made them watch while she ate it.

I was at the cupcake store the other day and witnessed a super-human level of mom control. A mother was picking out a set of cupcakes with her two young daughters, and as they were about to pay at the counter, one of the girls promptly began temper-tantruming all over the place because she didn't get the cupcake she…

Maybe it's because I'm not big on kids, or maybe I just meet a lot of shitty parents, but I feel like a lot of kids are assholes. And if there is one thing I absolutely hate is when strangers ask other strangers to discipline their kids. For example:

Not at all. Your credit report is actually a complete history of your debts, banking accounts, loans, credit cards, essentially a complete picture of your financial life from top to bottom. There are some things that aren't on it, like investments and such, but overall, it's supposed to be a holistic picture of your…

I'm going to have to call "Fiction" on: "The better your score, the lower your odds of going seriously delinquent on credit obligations."

Okay Perry completely (maybe intentionally) misses the point about legal abortion.

I don't own and airsoft gun, but I used to play paintball quite a bit. I'm going to guess it can shoot a BB ~400-500 fps (feet per second). So if you shoot it straight up, I would guess it easily reaches 100 feet in the air. I think horizontally, you can shoot a BB several hundred feet.

Please do this. Liberals of the states, come on down to Texas! We have a wine country!
