I already told her my mom was wearing purple the day she told us our wedding sounds like a funeral. It won't ruin my day though, don't worry. She sucks but her son is fantastic and he's going to be my husband. Yeah! :)

This isn't that lame, but I think it's the funniest excuse I have heard. I was at work sitting in the boss's office when an employee came rushing in late. The boss asked why.

Plus at the end of the day, it's a lot of fucking planning. People always ask about 'enjoying the wedding planning process' but you're basically planning a carefully choreographed party for 50 - 200 people. Even if you are a stable woman, it's a lot of shit to do.

I had the post-wedding blues but it was more a let down of how much effort and time and fun I had planning it and then it was over! So my best friend and I decided to take all that energy we had to spare after the wedding was over and plan a zombiewalk for our city. And we did and it was awesome and it's still going

It's just so ingrained in our brains that it's supposed to be OUT BIGGEST DAY EVAR, that some girls really fall for it, and they pressure themselves to compete with previous and future brides, make sure everything is perfect, MY DAY, that the poor groom is often forgotten.

I didn't get the blues after the wedding, I got the 'what do I do with all this free time?' blues. I essentially hand-made all of the collateral for my wedding (I am a professional graphic designer). So when the day was done, I was missing the crafty aspect of the wedding prep. My solution was to start something new.

The people I get irritated by are the ones who act like because they spent a small amount of money on their wedding that means that thy somehow morally superior to those people who spent a lot. These are not poor people talking about their low-income weddings. These are folks who say that they didn't 'need' all that

I don't get angry or annoyed when people talk about their inexpensive weddings, and I've never engaged in one of those threads on here or elsewhere. But I do find myself getting a little defensive when there's so much judgement around spending a bit more for a wedding, assuming we're spoiled, idiotic, going into debt

Also, it's pretty disingenuous to suggest that thin teenage girls aren't also feeling unattractive and unwanted by their male peers.

OMG. I think that's why I'm grossed out by it. I just kept thinking "frothy sexual fluids" and I had no idea why I was thinking that.

But also he has an actual job which is to fly people to hospital, which, considering he could do absolutely nothing and be no worse off, is fairly admirable. I'm not saying he deserves a medal for actually doing something productive, but it is factually incorrect to say he's unemployed.

Sorry, but I'm not quitting my job and my wife is not quitting hers, so daycare will happen. We don't live close enough to her parents to have daycare via grandparents. And before you say, "just do with less!" it's more about the fact that having only one working parent is a huge economic risk if one parent dies.

Guess what? You're full of shit!

Yeah, that's what I have a hard time wrapping my head around. Do you prioritize one over the other? What if they both want to live with you, do you switch back and forth? I understand how open relationships work, but being that emotionally invested in multiple people sounds exhausting. Not saying it's not doable, just

Sorry to disappoint you, but it's unlikely. What I have is a relatively minor but chronic inconvenience, more a pain in the ass than anything.

Ah, so it's no big deal that these women were harassed because some groups have it worse? Okay.

This was completely over the top, and I should be embarrassed, but if I'm being honest? This is one of my favorite stories about myself.

Not me (emotionally repressed 4 lyfe) but my then-14-year old sister:

My dream? $10 courthouse wedding, with a 3 hour cocktail party starting at 8pm (so kids will already be in bed). Lots of wine and small bites, mingling, maybe dancing. Done.

I did both and neither worked out ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
