What? A communal lipstick for a bridesmaid gift? That's bizarre. I know plenty of brides who had very lovely, tasteful, simple weddings.

I dunno... who wants to go to a wedding by themselves? I wouldn't. It just seems kind of harsh to tell unmarried people that they can attend alone or stay home. Especially since weddings can be kind of a bummer when you're single. If it didn't apply to any of your guests, that's understandable.

I'm super scrawny, but I've always been able to do planks without breaking a sweat. When I was a pathetic highschooler who hid behind the wrestling mats in gym so I wouldn't have to participate, I was somehow able to do planks longer than just about everyone in my class. Just don't ask me to unscrew a jar or do a

Godspeed. I just won a plank-off a few weeks ago with a much more in-shape co-worker. I'm a scrawny weakling, but planks are my jam. It's nice to have something to gloat about when I'm huffing and puffing up the stairs.

Who's complaining? The article just said that brides should smile and thank guests for coming. That's pretty basic etiquette.

Oooh a Sunday day wedding sounds nice. I've only been to Saturday (and one Friday night) weddings. I'm actually really impressed with people who can plan a low-budget wedding. Not an easy task.

I didn't get that impression from the article at all. It just seems like a reminder to be considerate and grateful of the time and effort involved for the guests. Some brides and grooms get caught up in how much money they're spending on the wedding (which is totally understandable) and don't realize that guests spend

I believe you get a year ;)

Do people not do this anymore? Same thing with baby showers. I don't know anything about babies, so I spend hours trying to find a gift that isn't stupid, and don't get a thank you card. I still write thank you's to my relatives every holiday. Maybe I'm the weird one.

One of my best friends spent a small fortune on her wedding a few years ago. They took out a loan to pay for it. She and her husband already had student loans and significant credit card debt. They're stressed out all the time because of all the debt. They bicker about money constantly. It's pretty nuts how otherwise

Sometimes my boyfriend puts my wine in the very top cabinet as a joke. So mean!

My mom's in her late fifties and she will be DEVASTATED by this. However, she's been wearing it for quite a few years. I used to get Coldwater Creek sweaters from my dad for Christmas, because he assumed that's what all women wore lol

Newport News! I had my eye on a white linen ensemble with a big floppy straw hat that would have made me look sooo sophisticated while lounging in the yard, but my parents wouldn't buy it for me.

Those sunglasses! What's the point of having kids if you can't dress them up in goofy outfits.

Highly unlikely. It wouldn't surprise me if this was some sort of "healer" she found on Craigslist or something. She's a bit gullible. She freaked out when she saw that I had a fan in my bedroom, because someone once told her that long-term fan usage will warp your face.

My aunt isn't quite this bad, but for years she's been going on these kicks where she'll eat nothing but bananas, spinach, and a few slices of wheat bread for weeks at time. Allegedly her doctor said this was fine. He also allegedly told her it was a great idea to fast every Monday to "detox your system."

I worked two jobs for the first five years out of college to pay off my student loans. When I finally quit my night job, I felt like I had sooo much free time I didn't know what to do with myself. That didn't last long, though.

I used to work at a restaurant, and you could not call in sick EVER. I did get to leave early once because I was throwing up uncontrollably. I'm sure the customers reeeally appreciate having contagious people handling their food and beverages.

I drank a bottle of wine and ate like 3/4 of a french silk pie in bed.

Or just turning his freaking head to look if she's lying next to him
