My husband and I were behind someone who must have been high at a Subway one time. They wanted their sandwich piled high with every kind of meat and cheese they had, plus as many veggies as they could cram onto it, but they didn’t want to pay extra for any of it. Those poor Subway workers were trying to figure out how

I am so goddamn sick and tired of this “waah, everybody gets trophies nowadays” shit.

I once met a woman who had a baby at age 10. She was 27, and had a 17-year-old. She loved her son, but she hated that she’d lost a great deal of her childhood, and she couldn’t get pregnant again and had a host of health problems from giving birth so many years before her body was ready. It was tragic and awful.

lol you’re a total idiot. You’re like that guy that white guy that made Dave Chapelle rethink his entire comedy career on tv.

Disney is mean!

It’s sickening and sad to see Madonna post that picture. The things that man did to her are horrific and it appalls me the way so many people have shrugged it off or forgotten about it. As always, fuck Sean Penn.

It’s not even just young people. I organized a party for my parents’ 40th wedding anniversary and their friends were the worst, either not responding or saying yes and then cancelling at the last minute. Ugh.

I’ve used the “I was, apparently he wasn’t” line a number of times. It causes my FIL to go into a rage about how “un-classy” I am when I say these things. They then go “we raised him right!” and I said “well, then maybe he decided to forgo how you raised him?”

seriously, i’ve had enough of those people (there’s a

My mom bought the bridesmaid’s dresses for my sister’s wedding (there were only three of us, which helped). It also helped that the dressmaker was a friend of the groom’s family, and his mother was basically the Don Corleone of Mormons in Oxfordshire, because EVERYBODY owed that woman favors, and she called them all

I would like some feedback from the internet masses.

The guinea pigs will be walked on jeweled leashes in front of him.

Cross out the “kind of”. That’s a true gift.

NO HOME TRAINING. More mothers-in-law need to hear that they’ve failed at their one big job.

Ha! My MOTHER-IN-LAW never gave us a wedding gift. And she insisted on paying for the flowers for the reception, ordered way over my budget, and stuck me with the bill. This is the first time in 29 years I've shared that information with anyone beside my husband.

Beyond the fact that I dislike her husband a massive amount, the thing that pissed me off the most about being the MOH in my bff’s wedding? She and I had picked a lovely and very inexpensive (>$100) dress that could easily be tailored since 4 (yes 4) of the bridesmaids were pregnant during the wedding. Her husband

Not RSVPing is a huge pet peeve of mine. HUGE.

I had a destination wedding so lots of friends and relatives couldn't make it. I commented to my in-laws that I was a little upset that some of their relatives neither RSVPd nor congratulated us. Somehow that snowballed into me BEING A BRIDEZILLA DEMANDING GIFTS. Almost 10 years later there is still bad blood about

This *gets* to me big time.

The agreement that I had with DH is that he would write the thank you notes for ‘his’ guests, and I would write the one for mine. I wasn’t going to have all that fall onto me. And he agreed.

I wrote all of my thank you notes basically day 1. DH didn’t write any.

My MIL started to get

The opposite has happened to us. My husband was best man at a wedding in Manhattan. The bachelor party was in town here and my husband covered the groom’s hotel portion ($500!!!!!!!!) temporarily bc the groom couldn’t afford it. Ok, fine. Then we flew to NYC for 5 days, stayed in a hotel, went out with them, went to

I was in my best friend since kindergarten’s wedding last year. She knew I had financial problems and instead of an expensive gift, she asked me to paint her a fingerprint tree for her guest book. I was so relieved to be able to spent so little and give her something I knew she would treasure forever instead. Her
