You know what I really hate? People who are real quick to criticize but are nowhere to be seen when you need help! Lately I keep getting comments from people, mostly FI's family who like to pretend they're real big on etiquette, about local customs I'm getting wrong. But where were any of them when I was asking for help on customs and traditions??
Last week FMIL was going to a family get together and offered to take some of our invites to family members. Yesterday she tells me how they were all completely shocked that I had sealed their envelopes. Really?? That FI's grandmother exclaimed "Invitations are never fully sealed! I hope she's not going around delivering her invitations like that!! Please someone tell her!" . first of all FMIL, you already know I'm not hand delivering invitations fully sealed. I only fully sealed their envelopes because you're incredibly clumsy, careless and would probably lose all the inserts on the way there. Second, who the F cares??!!
And last night we delivered an invite to a friend and when she reads it she laughs and says "Oh look! The time of the ceremony is written out in words! Hahahaha how funny!!" I just stared at her thinking I don't see what's so effing funny about that. It's called FORMALITY biotch!! Ughh apparently not. Thanks for all the proofreading help FSIL and FMIL!! Or NOT!
Ok you go. Who do you want to tell to shut the hell up??
