Yeah, people who say the regs always stick together aren't lurking long enough, that's for sure!

We have those that reject and complain about us because we didn't validate their idea and then we have those that recognize that their idea may be bad if an entire board disagrees with it.

I appreciate the community of mixed opinions, backgrounds and honesty. I don't want everyone to agree with me because sometimes I'm wrong and I'm constantly learning from our discussions and sometimes, my opinion changes after reflection. There's also a bunch of you with similar geek tastes to my own. .

I've posted and lurked a little on Wedding Bee since I made the acct for Wednesday and understand why you send people there sometimes now. It's where rude people go to be told they get a "free pass" on anything because it's their wedding day (gag).

I keep thinking about people who complain about getting unsolicited advice here. At least our advice is useful. On WB, someone was looking advice for her FI using a wheelchair at their wedding. Since my FI is also a wheelchair user, I replied. I got a PM from someone else giving me condescending "tips" on how to minimize FI's wheelchair by getting it painted at a bike shop to match his tux. Also, she suggested I buy him a nice cane to walk with. Yeah, I don't think anyone on TK would've assumed FI needed tips for his mobility or assumed we wanted to hide his chair. What would that even accomplish??

What the everloving fuck.

Yeah FI was disgusted by the original thread and by the PM. In thread, they suggest leaving a space for the groom at every table (assuming people won't make room or turn when he visits the table) and they also said they should have all guests come up to him at the head table because the guy might get trapped with a boring uncle or drunk aunt. I said, disabled people excuse themselves like everyone else...

WB sucks. Look at this gem: http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/attn-legally-married-brides-and-wedding-at-later-date#axzz2UatpR8Rx

I hope folks keep that one in mind when they visit tomorrow.

Dear god WHYYYYYYYYYY so much entitlement...

I love the one where the girl's like "Well my dad had two mortgages and his mom was dying so I didn't feel right about asking for deposits and stuff..."

Then... pay for your own damn party?

Holy fucking hell. I am so sorry you had to deal with that. That's ridiculous, not to mention incredibly offensive. I had to use a wheelchair and walker earlier this year after my major knee surgery, and instead of using a plain walker when I returned to the hospital, I used a glittery blue one. I even put a sticker on it that a patient gave me. I totally rocked that thing. More power to your FI to rock his wheelchair every day, and especially on your wedding day.

Oh he doesn't really have a choice. He can't walk very far/long.

We're not upset, but it just goes to show how asinine people are.

I think it's not that serious. It's just a message board.

Don't fall asleep around the cats. You know they'll eat you if they think you're dead.

A dog will wait until it's starving before it gives in and eats its dead owner, but kitties like their meat fresh.

Your cat isn't watching you for the fun of it. He's watching your chest to see if it's still rising and falling, because he'll head for the buffet the instant it stops.

And when they're poking your face, they're actually trying to smother you.

My BFF sent me the "How Your Cat Is Plotting To Kill You" calendar for Christmas. Love her so much!
