Reception on different day than ceremony

cantwaitforthefuture

No, just making a very labored point.  Sometimes people need repetition to understand.  That is clearly the case here :-)

We understand your point. You're just wrong.

cantwaitforthefuture

Wrong about what, specifically?

Well, first, you're wrong to generalize about people's families and your assumptions that all guests will find tiered and multi-day events fun as long as they're not "uptight." For another, you're wrong to say that these boards are useless, because if people are looking for ways not to be condescending and rude to others, you are not the first poster on this board that they should go to.

Can't say that I agree with you :-)   You gals have really mastered pack mentality.  You could all be in a sociology study. 

Anyway, I have learned here that as long as a "lurker" is learning from your posts, any rude language is not only ok, but actually encouraged.

I don't think "rude" means what you think it means. And the "pack" here has just figured out that "unique" ideas are not worth doing if they will make your guests uncomfortable, and are often born out of the selfishness of the couple. And they can recognize these bad ideas pretty quickly.

Pretty sure I know what the word rude means.  For example, if you would hypothetically make a comment like this:  "so no you can't just do whatever the hell you want", I would classify that as a rude comment.  There are probably 100 ways to say that in a friendlier, more helpful, or more polite way.

If you are referring to the comment I think you're referring to, you picked a terrible example. The OP used that exact phrase. It is in no way rude to say "No you can't do whatever the hell you want" in response to "I can do whatever the hell I want."

Blunt =/= rude.

cantwaitforthefuture

Just a hypothetical example :-)

Okay.

Okay. Enough. You've made your point. Move along, please, and stop trolling/derailing the thread.

cantwaitforthefuture

Interesting take on things, as you'll notice that I directly answered the OP's question.  Others then felt the need to tell me how wrong I was, which "derailed the thread".  Wink.  Smile. Yawn.

Do you not understand how forums work?

cantwaitforthefuture

Yes. I'm simply making the point that I was not the person that "derailed" the original poster's question.  I, in fact, directly answered her question.

Okay.  Yeah you answered OPs question, but you also insulted a posters family by saying that they were uptight and then posted a rambling about being "warned" and basically saying that many posters on here verbally abuse others.  So sorry to say you did pretty much derail this thread.

cantwaitforthefuture

Well we'll have to agree to disagree :-)  Wink

Stop trolling this thread. The "wink, smile, yawn" is not redeeming you at all. In fact, it's making your time on here even more limited.

I have asked you to drop it. Now drop it.

cantwaitforthefuture

I love how seriously you all take yourselves!  I just learned from the best and brightest when a few other people replied with a "yawn" to posts of mine.  Enjoy pestering the poor brides to be that actually come to this website looking for help.  Wink

Just in case I haven't made myself crystal clear, this is your third warning.

cantwaitforthefuture

Not my third warning!!  I hope I don't get sent to the principal's office!!  Just in case I haven't made myself crystal clear, I could not care less.   Again, those reading comprehension skills really need some work.

Anyway, cheers!

PS. What are the requirements for becoming a moderator?  I'm thinking no sense of humor, overuse of curse words while pretending that at the same time you are an etiquette master, the want and need to "pile on" when someone is asking a sincere question, a highly judgmental nature, and this last one is just a stab in the dark...probably very unhappy in your own personal life to the point where you have to make the lives of people online that you will never meet as miserable as possible. 

cantwaitforthefuture

One more comment, according to my ticker, I only have two warnings. Guess it's just a computer glitch..but you might want to just check it out.  Wink!

@wrigleyville - is there some kind of moderating phenomenon where after a third warning or something, that poster's stuff gets hidden? Although I should have, I'm pretty sure I didn't ignore BSJB myself, and now this girl's stuff is hidden.

I just PM'd KnotRiley. I think it may be a tech bug of some kind.
