Also “I disagree with your existence but you don’t need to be MEAN TO ME about that... surely you can state your objection to my hatred of you and desire to reduce your rights IN CIVIL TERMS THAT I APPROVE OF PLEASE #prayingforyou”

What I also don’t get is them getting bend out of shape for being called racist or sexist.
I hate these type of persons. Not only do they behold largely unfounded irrational (hateful) views. They flat-out deny holding them in the first place, while at the same time sharing them plentiful.

There are two options in my…

THIS SO MUCH

Also “I disagree with your existence but I still have a GOOD HEART!!!!”

“I disagree with your existence, but can’t we be friends?”

One of the most exhausting and frustrating things in the whole entire world is a privileged white person with oppressive political views getting bent out of shape because someone reasonably makes the logical connection from those political views to personal beliefs and calls her out on it.

“I probably have the crappiest tattoo,” Shelton told Mix 106.5. “Not only in country music, but maybe the world.”

It also means he got drunk once and cheated on his wife.

The comments on that Matt Walsh post made me fucking crazy last night.

My mama did the same thing with her bridesmaids - she didn’t even say what shade of green, she just said green. Turns out they both went for the same grass color, and the same dress style. If you trust people to have taste, generally they won’t fail you.

Ha, thanks. The bride in that case was my sister-in-law, who I didn’t know too well at the time, so I felt uncomfortable questioning anything. Today if anyone asked me to spend that much, I would just say it was out of my budget and ask for an alternative option.

Register for like, 10 things and tell people you want cash, pass it on. Put it on your wedding website. Add a map to the location or something, you don’t have to have a crazy website, just a little extra info.

Three hundred dollars for a bridesmaids dress? I would spit tacks. My WEDDING GOWN was $800, INCLUDING alterations.

I understand completely. I wound up calling my wedding off as well. I sent back all shower gifts (with an additional thank you note). I offered to pay my bridesmaids for their dresses, but they all flatly refused. The last thing I wanted to be during the entire process was a bridezilla. My catchphrase during planning…

Wow you were expected to pay for things? And she knew you were unemployed? I could never do that to a friend. If I had a wedding but my MOH was poor I’d cover the cost of the events she would be expected to organize.

Am I weird for all this? Maybe. But I also think if you want people to attend your wedding, maybe make it as easy as possible for them to do so. And don’t expect the people IN your wedding to have unlimited budgets - so maybe don’t have a Caribbean bachelorette party unless you’re all, I don’t know, stockbrokers…

I’m telling you, though, that wedding registries exist for one reason: relatives.

A Home Depot gift card. Mostly because that’s pretty much all I buy anyone who owns a house, and it seems to always come in handy.

Booze

A friend of mine did a yoga trip/training in India. One night, their host who was Indian made them all pizza because he knew Westerners loved pizza. Every single person except her refused to eat the pizza because they were gluten free/vegan/carb free. She literally cried telling me the story. People are the worst.
