I love this!

I don’t think my husband cares that much, his baby brother can do no wrong. But yes, they are self-centered, spoiled brat cunts! I feel less crazy reading these comments, so thanks :)

Lol, will do

Wow, that is horrible - I’m sorry that you have had to deal with such selfish in-laws for so many years, but yeah, I feel you too. May I say you have balls/a vagina of steel! I’m skeptical at my ability to put up with my BIL and his lady for the next who-knows-how-many years, but I’ll use your exemplary conduct as…

You are SOOO not the only one who gets taken advantage of by advantage-takers hahaha - there are many of us so don’t worry! And it does make us trust others less or at least, personally, I tend to keep more and more to myself than before. Like with J, I can’t talk to him about his brother’s actionsany more than I…

Good! So many people have “I met so-and-so and they were the worst” stories, so this is nice to hear

Yes - you get it. It sucks when people don’t give a shit, it is even worse and awkward and hurtful when it comes from your in-laws, especially when it is your husband’s beloved only brother. I usually talk to my husband about this kind of shit, but I can’t go to him about his baby brother. So thanks for commiserating!…

It’s sounds like you have the right idea re: your brother in law. I need to work on my reaction, like you said. Exercise is a good idea too - thanks

The issue I’m having with these red velvet croissants that, at least on the screen shot here, they look fleshy. It’s the shinyness, the mix of fresh blood red and dry blood red coloring and the spotted paper underneath resembling the aftermath of an operating table that make the image disconcerting. It probably tastes…

Holy shit - Anthony Bourdain bought you a drink?!? Is he a nice guy? I love his shows, but once in awhile he has a tiny bit of douchebaggery going on, but not enough to make me dislike him...

This ALL resonates with me, so thank you! Resentment is such a waste of energy and yet it rears its ugly head again and again, for me at least. I’ve just never felt resentful this strongly before, and its towards people that I am technically now related to for the rest of my life. Argh. But baby steps - I’ll try your…

Yeah some of us give and give with nothing in return even though we don’t expect it, it’s like we do it out of love so we wish we’d get the same love back? But not in a tit-for-tat way? I’m not being clear, but I get where you are coming from and I totally understand distancing yourself from the worst takers. And…

Hi fellow accommodator nice to meet you! *waves* It’s so simple I feel like an ass for not thinking of it myself. I need to make it all about the baby.

This is textbook “for every complex problem these is a simple solution” and yet I would have never framed it this way in my head. It’s about the baby and that’s that. Thanks for replying and taking me out of the greys!

No prob! I LOOOVE stone fruits, especially peaches and nectarines so I buy and use them as much as possible :)

Peach clafoutis? Peach puree (for bellinis)? Ice cream (at least that way you could freeze them)? Any good at canning?

I posted this on my personal kinja to get it out of my head, but I thought if I copied it here, someone might have advice? This is totally TL;DR just a warning.

What the hell is going on?

I truly feel sorry for the people who can’t love her.

Hi - you are my people. MIGHTY DUCKS 4EVA
