So I wanted to design my own invitations. And we were being frugal so I went to some website and designed and ordered my own cards myself. I was really into having this be MY thing. Iwas going to get them just like I wanted and I really played with formats and got creative. My partner gave me full reign and I didn't…

I received an invite to a family member's wedding- invite, reception details, reply card and a small, stamped, SEALED envelope. I thought maybe the envelope accidentally got sealed going through the mail, but turns out, the groom licked and stamped all the reply envelopes inside the invites.

We sent out our invites using paperless post, and while I was still fiddling with the design of our save the dates, I saved it to come back to it later. Feeling lazy, I couldn't be bothered to type out "save the date" and just put "STD" as the file name instead. When we then sent out the emails, paperless post used…

When we got married 21 years ago, there were not a lot of home computers or printers. My fiance (now husband) was finishing art school, and insisted he could make the invitations and print them at his fancy school. He had to have handmade, acid-free paper ordered from Seattle (we were in L.A.) which he then…

The invitations to my November 2001 wedding were mailed on September 10, 2001. The wedding venue? Windows on the World.

Pork Wine. The OTHER white wine.

That's nice and worthwhile of course, but given the mountains of government subsidies to the agroindustry that help generate the raw materials of which junk food is mostly made, this seems too little. I know she's not the president, but you can't really push people to eat their vegetables (especially not the…

When the page loaded, I actually said out loud 'Oh COME on'.

Don't forget how the same people who limit poor women's access to birth control and abortions always go, "It's so irresponsible to have kids when you can't support them financially."

Poor people are perennially punished in America. Politicians get elected by promising to further dis-empower and disenfranchise them because so many Americans are too denial-filled to recognize that they themselves are one step away from being just as poor. They've been brainwashed to believe that they're somehow…

I have seen it.

GAWD where is Lindy West when we need her? http://jezebel.com/5942622/taste-…

Yes, I'm sure it's annoying. The difference is the "othering" that black people get, especially regarding our hair. Someone with hair texture similar to your own may admire your curls if their hair is straighter. They may admire the thickness of your hair versus their fine hair. However, when some people go to touch…

My mother. Who took the opportunity during her toast to give my bride my bronzed baby shoes, saying "This is all I have left to give to you of my Gregory. The rest you've already taken for yourself"

Dear God, who does that make Michael in this allegory?

Once you start seeing all the parallels between the Bluths and the Bushes, you'll never look at AD the same.

ah! I laughed out loud! You win the Internet today as far as I'm concerned.

Fun fact: "Jeb" are his initials. His name is John Ellis Bush, but you know how those WASP's like nick names, so they called him JEB or Jeb.

Subtext: My folks were so psyched about me marrying a foreigner, they didn't hire a photographer and the only people taking pictures were my mom and my fuckup teenage brother.

Man, the 70s were a dark time for wedding attire.
