I've only been on this site since I got engaged in October and I already find it so annoying that different people ask the same question that's been asked 100 times. I know I was guilty of this in my first few weeks as well! I don't know how you guys who have been on here for years can handle it. I think there should be like when you type a question on Yahoo Answers- 5 similar questions pop up on the side and say "wait- we may have an answer for you". That would be awesome on here.
Re: super annoying reading the same posts/questions
Eyeroll!

OMG so FI and my parents are going to be meeting for the first time on our wedding weekend, does that make my marriage null-in-void? OMG I need to have a PPD to make sure that the wedding is actually the engagement party! But no gift's please
(Sorry Snarky-pants are on at the moment)
"OMG, I hae everything I need, it's perfectly ok to ask for cash/set up a honeymoon fund on the invites and shower invites because I'm super special and shouldn't have to pay for my trip! If my grandma shows up with a lovely crystal vase for me, my wedding is TOTALLY RUINED!!!"
Welcome to our world, Jenna.
Guuuuuuuuuuuys, I just bought my $15,000 dream wedding dress! But now I don't have enough money to pay for alcohol for my wedding. FI and I decided to have a cash bar and DIY everything else. But my bridesmaids refuse to take 2 weeks off of work to help me cut out teeny tiny paper hearts and glue them on to my burlap and lace wrapped mason jars! UGH! How can they be so SELFISH?!?!
Yup, I did this after the 7000th thread asking "do I have to invite kids?"
Edit: spelling
Everyone even brings me gifts all the time, even though I writ "No Gifts, please. Your presence is present enough" on all of the invitations. But like, um, here's the thing I actually want the presents, I just write that so everyone thinks I'm sooooo polite and then they feel like they just have to get me something!
My FI and I have been engaged since Christmas, so when do you think is a good time to throw the e-party? I was thinking Valentine's Day because that is just so romantic!
Oh and we are actually already married, we just went down to the courthouse and signed papers so that I could visit him in jail- looong story, don't ask but it's not like he killed anyone, but our friends and family don't know, so like on FB and stuff we are engaged.
Our real wedding will be a DW in Cancun once he's out of jail this summer, and since we can't afford to invite all 400 of my nearest and dearest friends because I bought two designer gowns- one for the ceremony and one for the reception, we are going to have a potluck AHR a few weeks after we get back. . . I have a third dress for that reception too!
I don't want anyone showing up to my AHR in jeans and shit so should I just write Black Tie on my invitations and Evite?

I just kicked my original 3 out for refusing to cover their skanky ass tramp stamp tats. . . I don't want that shit ruining our getting ready pictures! I bought everyone matching BM thongs and robes.
"Love is the one thing we're capable of perceiving that transcends time and space."
I'm going to have a Honey Jar at my e-party and my 365 day party too. . . it's to get bail money for my Honey!
PS even though we had to B-List you, you should be getting a STD via FB very soon because I'm preeeeeeetty sure a bunch of people on FI's side won't travel because they are too cheap.

oooh, pick me, pick me prettygirllost!
I want to be your abused brideslave that you call at 3 am screaming because I haven't ordered (and paid for) the customized tears of joy kleenex.
I also want to be voluntold to make the favors, remake them when you change your mind, iron your tablecloths, make your programs, decorate the ceremony venue, decorate the reception venue, and clean up afterwards, free of charge.
Please also be sure to scream at me for losing weight due to not having time to eat doing everyting for your wedding, because you know I'm just trying to show you up and be the skinniest person, and therefore I have to rush re-order my dress (which you will change the color 3 times and the style 4, minimum, and I could not get a refund on any).
When you return from your honeymoon, make sure you call and yell at me again for not stealing booze from the venue to stock your home bar, or having champagne on ice with candles and strawberries for you and your hubs so you can "relive the wedding night magic."
Two weeks later, send me a hateful email/letter telling me how awful I am, how I ruined your wedding, and you never want to see me again. NEVER thank me for my efforts on your behalf.
So i wrote you all ripped off these super cute poems from PInterest to ask you to be my new BMs!

@PrettyGirlLost, remember, I'm your brideslave. Your guest book attendant came to her senses and dropped out last minute. I will sit at guest book, not head table. The wait staff will forget my food. I will have cold, congealed leftovers. You will berate me when I take 2 minutes to go to the bathroom, even though all the guests have come by, signed, and sat down to their meal....
Unless, of course, no meal, just cake punch and crackers at dinner time....
