[QUOTE]I think they are super tacky. Don't serve alcohol at all if you can't afford it- cash bars are just...well, imho, they go in the same category as e-vites, non-rsvp'ing guests, and guests wearing white to the wedding.

Cyber bully! :P

[QUOTE]I didnt say you were a "cyber bully".. I said you were bullying me! which you all are now.  This isn't even about the cash bar anymore. Its about you guys bringing up stuff that has already been dropped. I just don't get why you can't leave it alone and let it go.

You know, that goes both ways. It's hours later, and yet you're still checking this thread for some reason. Why is that?

[QUOTE]Dude, Casey, cyberbullying is when your friend's mom makes up a pretend teenage boy who falls in love with you on the internet and then tells you they hate you, so you kill yourself. Or it's streaming your roommate's hookup on the internet. Or taking racy photos of somebody and then texting them to the entire school. Don't try to equate a few people disagreeing about whether cash bars are tacky with the real, serious, horrible issues that are actually happening in the world. Calling today's thread cyberbullying is cheapening all of the tragic real cyberbullying that happens.

This.  I just didn't have the energy to type it.

@Casey - know how to get people to leave you alone?  Stop posting.

@Bree - you should really visit us on the wedding party board.  We need more sane people to respond to some of what we deal with over there.  It's dead on weekends but heats up during the week.

You guys are still talking about a cash bar, huh?

I need a drink. You guys got me in here, so it's your duty to provide it.

Thanks Joy.  Just read that thread.  She sounds like the self deluded tough kid who walks up to the bigger guy, kicks him in the shins, runs like hell and then brags to all her friends about how tough she is.  Also nice to know that she came here looking for a fight.

AdeleDazeem

I'm still not over the fact that she thought Banana was a bully.  BANANA.

Are you freaking kidding me?

crfische

Back to my original point, it's my favorite when people who are upset about people being "mean" to people, go back to their home base and ya know...be mean to people.

WE'RE WAY ABOVE THOSE E BITCHES!!!! Umm...I'm sorry. You just called us bitches.

AND I WAS EVEN NICE.

Unbelievable.  If it weren't a Sunday, I probably would have declared a field trip on the WP board.

I've been corrected on etiquette so many times by Banana it's actually embarrassing.  Not once did I do anything but cringe every single time because she was right - and not once was she judgmental or mean in how she told me.

I still fail to see where anyone was rude (initially) and where anyone was bullied.  But, apparently I'm an alocholic who can not have any fun without free drinks, so what do I know.

KJB, are you going through withdrawals? Is this why you're so moody today?

I am.  The wedding I was at last night was a cash bar.  I rudely hightailed it out of there after I got my free dinner. :)<div>Maybe I'll calm down adter I have a drink.  My virtual drinking friends dnb and andy are missing and I don't like to drink alone.</div>

crfische

I really don't mind cash bars at all. As long as it's a bar.

kellyjellybelly

I've never actually been to one, so I suppose I can't really say if I'd mind.  

And I was just kidding - I wasn't at a wedding last night or anything.  I was just making light of my comments from earlier in this thread.  

sarah0725

Wow, that's kind of awesome that she was all high and mighty about not whining about us on the Illinois board, but that's just because she went to her club board instead. I am amused.

kellyjellybelly

But Sarah, she is on a mission to show up that we are evil.  After all, someone has to step up to the plate.   Hmmm... this kinda sounds familiar....

crfische

I do believe they have now created a thuper thecret FB page so they can talk about us all under the protective blanket that IS Facebook.

sarah0725

Sigh. People need to learn to be a little more introspective about their internet personas.

kellyjellybelly

I prefer they talk about us right where I can see it.  It makes me feel all tingly inside.  Oh wait... that might be the withdrawal again.

What I think it hilarious is that this thread pretty much had most of the 'nice' E ladies (Yes, I called us ladies) in it.  Banana?  Fishy?  Come on.  

crfische

We're evil, I tell ya. EVIL.

I've never gotten into an argument with someone I was kind of agreeing with in the first place. First time for errything.

I was kind of thinking the same thing. I mean, this is the weekend crowd. If they think we're rough, they should try coming by on a weekday morning.
