If he hadn’t mentioned that article at all, someone in the comments would have gone after him for pretending he didn’t think the team would be bad, or some nonsense like that. There’s no winning that battle.

Well, it wouldn’t be totally unprecedented for you guys to lose to Marc-Andre Fleury.

Quite the opposite - Vegas is losing their collective ass because this team can’t stop winning.

I’m not super fond of the idea of confiscating people’s legal property without due process, so...

George Clooney and Oprah are both high on the list of avatars for ‘enormously rich,’ which I think overrides politics as far as this is concerned, but in terms of this wedding I imagine—and this is just a casual-observer American perspective—that the Diana derived notion of social consciousness still carries some…

A friend’s wedding? Seriously? Just how close was Clooney and Oprah to Megan Markle prior to all this royal nonsense?

Meghan does a lot of charity work so she could’ve hypothetically bonded with Amal or George.

Yeah, it’s hard for me to cast aspersions on the Royals when we have our own fucking tangerine Caligula in the White House. But I sure as fuck won’t be cheering his next wedding on, either.

Imagine if you paid for them to go on vacation every weekend to golf and then a percentage of the government sponsored weekend get away went directly into their pocket as profit. That would be ridiculous. I actually don’t care about the monarchy, but currently the US is paying a lot for quite a bit of excess as well.…

The royals still technically own the Crown Estate but by terms of the legislation, the royals don’t administer the properties and have very little control over what’s done with them. It’s sort of a weird gray area, but my understanding is that absent the legislation, the holdings would all revert to the Windsors’…

It should never be forgotten that people hated him so much that his corpse was dug up and hanged.

I know you’re joking, but (from a Scot and on behalf of other Celtic countries) Cormwell’s stupid rotted skull can fucking go crumble to dust.

You would, if you weren’t clued in to the fact that in 1760, the royal family agreed to basically let the revenues from all its holdings be controlled by the House of Commons, and in exchange the royals started receiving a fixed annual income called the Civil List. The amount of money the royals received is dwarfed by…

So glad someone already said this - the solution is to say to MIL

Totally unfucking called for in my opinion . The writer literally says nothing about her husband or issues she has with him.

I don’t get why Jane suggests the marriage was a mistake, because one set of in-laws are jerks. That’s way out of left field. I had a horrible marriage with great in-laws who I miss dearly, and now I’ve been in a darn near blissful marriage for 7 years, and I don’t like my mother-in-law.

Co-sign.

Bingo! Just because this woman wants a relationship with you on her terms doesn’t mean you have to give it to her. If you’re upset about this, say so: “When you and Fergus were so unpleasant during my wedding, it made me feel like you didn’t respect all the hard work that went into making it a celebration.” Then…

Yeah. At the very least, she should be cautious towards her in-laws and look for signs that they may by destructive in her life.

Yes, the advice felt very wrong to me also. I had a similar situation — not as bad though — where my MIL and FIL paid for nothing (not even the rehearsal dinner) (my mother and father paid for a lot, as well as both me and my husband), thanked no one, and as soon as they arrived, started complaining. but they didn’t…
