Chit Chat

I couldn't believe my ears!

Today I went to lunch with FI's parents and grandparents. Somehow the topic of registries came up, and FI's grandma brought up one of my FI's cousins that recently got married. They not only included their registry information IN the wedding invitation, but at the bottom of it put "Don't be cheap!" Even worse, they registerd for stuff like a plasma tv and an Xbox! Most of the family were all set to buy them wedding gifts, but after that, they decided to not even bother sending a card - much less show up to the wedding. How tacky (not to mention RUDE) can you get?!

  • I'm sure they thought they were being cute. Oops.

  • I am choosing not to believe this. "Don't be cheap!" DED
  • Yeah, I am having trouble believing that someone would actually write that on their invites. But if you got the invite somehow and scanned it in, I'd be quick to apologize! I wanna see these rude invites!

  • I went to a wedding where all they wanted was money and they registered for big awkward stuff like garabage cans and then dumb stuff like condoms.  people are just weird.
  • Cute, funny?  Not.  Tacky, rude?  Yes.  Definitely put people like them on 'ignore', and do not follow their lead.  Guess you never know what folks are thinking.

  • Wow, I hope they meant that to be taken as a joke.  If not, that is really rude.  If they meant that jokingly, the should have taken into consideration that not everyone may understand their humor...
