Ugh...Seriously?

Can someone please remind me not to post in the Etiquette board?

Re: Ugh...Seriously?

  • Wow...just wow they were harsh!! Don't get me wrong, I personally love reading their snark and it has been directed at me more than once. But they just came out of left field.


    And now for some nice advice :D

    -I think the GM will know to either shave it off or trim it before the wedding. You have a zillion and one things to worry about, this is not something that would register on the radar. Breathe and move on!

  • Sigh, some women are so catty.

    For what it's worth, I know how you feel. FI asked a former co-worker to be a groomsman. This particular co-worker has long hair that he never ever washes. I am sorta stressing over this. Surely he will at least bathe! Maybe he'll even tie it back? This is what I keep telling myself at least....

    (Side note, FI and I were at a formal wedding on June 30th in which people showed up in jeans. We were BOTH shocked!)

  • Stay away, it's no good!! 
    As to your post on the E board, just be honest with your GM.  I've had to cover my tattoos for wedding pictures before, and have never been offended by it.  I don't think there is anything wrong with asking people to look nice in wedding pictures. 
    I think the girls on the E board forgot what it is like to plan a wedding and all the things you worry about.  Even months in advance just thinking of all the things that could go wrong.  I mean most of them got married years ago.  I wouldn't base what is/isn't ok to do from a bunch of people that can't move on from their wedding.  It's truly sad.  And not one of them are classy about how they discuss etiquette. 
    We have girls on this board that are sticklers for etiquette, and they are classy about it.  Just avoid the E board seriously!

  • Wow, I just read that thread and am shocked!  That board is why I don't stray far from this board and my local board.  People are just so rude sometimes.  

    I don't care if you asked a dumb question or not, I would never respond to somebody like that.  And by the way, that was not a dumb question. At all.

    I loved the comment that 99% of adults know to look cleaned up... etc. 

    I find this funny because my FFIL asked if he seriously had to get fitted for a tux.  He asked why he couldn't just wear his "nice" clothes.... that consists of his dark jeans and a black tshirt.  And he has a "mountain man" beard too.  But I do love my IL's.  It was just funny... and he was serious.

  • Oh, for pity's sake. I love that the board that's supposed to be for etiquette has the rudest and most self righteous posters in it. This is why I only ever post here anymore. At least here I can count on people to be reasonable and sane. :P FWIW I can empathize because I have a similar beard problem in my WP...only it's the groom! Don't get me wrong, I like FI's beard and think he looks better with it than without it. But it can get pretty scraggly sometimes and I would prefer he not be rockin' the Unabomber look on our wedding day. I still haven't figured out how to explain this to him without him feeling like he needs to completely shave. In your situation, if your FI is bothered by his friend's beard, what's to stop him from saying something to him about it? Not even in a wedding related sense, in a "Dude, I love you like a brother, but you look like you have a dead animal strapped to your face" sense. I wouldn't worry too much about the wedding itself, though. Unless your GM is totally oblivious, it should occur to him that any occasion which requires a tux also requires a little bit more personal grooming than his normal daily routine.

    </div><div>The GM of concern is a really smart guy, an engineer.  He wears jeans and a tee shirt to work (which he bikes to).  He's slightly socially awkward, 26 years old and he's never had a girlfriend.  I do believe that he knows HOW to clean up, but I don't know that he knows TO clean up (that it technically is the right thing to do).  That's what bothers me about the whole post. </div><div>
    </div><div>I'm so confused because I said up front that "I know we can't ask him to shave it" but everyone is treating me like I was planning on asking him to shave!  My dad has a beard and he trims it up so its neat and even before events, but doesn't shave it down.

  • Honestly, you shouldn't be surprised. You are complaining about how someone looks in your wedding party and you alluded to the fact that your FI might not have asked him to be in the wedding if he thought he would have facial hair.

    You ask people to be part of your day because they are your friends and you want to share in the day with them. It is what it is. You come off extremely superficial in that post.

  • Minus the snarkiness, I have to say I agree with some of them. But maybe I'm biased, because FI has a beard that I love. Why is your FI "disturbed" by his friend's facial hair? That, I really don't get.

    </div><div>Poor choice of wording on my part.  I prefer "taken aback".  He has had a beard in the past, but when FI saw him it was three months old and pretty much untouched in that time frame.  I think it surprised him.

  • Honestly, it may be a bit superficial, but I think everyone has a tendency to be a bit superficial about different things at one point or another, whether you want to admit it or not.  I don't think you should have received the reaction you did, but your wording should have been a bit better.  It's hard when you are communicating with people that don't know you and it's on the internet.  Words can be taken in several different directions so you really need to read what you are writing and make sure that you are getting your point across correctly.

    Even with all of that said, stay away from the e-board.  Just based on the comments they gave, regardless if they agreed or disagreed with what you were saying, most of them seem like they get a high on belittling other people.  I wonder if they are like that with people they encounter in their everyday life.

  • I get wanting to have people look 'neat' and put together for your wedding but I am glad that you decided against emailing all of your wedding party asking them to look neat for your wedding day.  I would be pretty pissed off if I, as an adult, was asked to make sure that I esentially showered and brushed my hair and teeth. 

    If you are friends with beardman then you should know whether or not he will show up for your wedding with a full beard or one that has been trimmed up a bit.  I don't think asking him specifically to shave is the best idea. 

    I mean you no disrespect in this post just my opinion.  I think the ettiquette board is known for their harsh responses to people who are not regulars on their board.  If you don't want response that could make you upset or feel bad for asking just ask on this board or your local board.

    </div><div>It is kind of ironic how belittling they can be but at the same time, God forbid you make a comment like, "do you think you could trim your beard for the wedding?"  I really do trust that whatever happens on the day of the wedding will be fine.  </div>

  • Yikes, again, I can't believe that board.  I agree that the on the surface the question seems a bit superficial, however, I'm sure that something similar crossed all of their minds as they were  planning their wedding!  For goodness sakes, I just can't believe you were crucified by response 2!

    My advice would be not to say anything to him.  Even if he is a little unaware (btw, not all engineers are bad ;)  .....I don't think I have the worst style in the world, although I can't grow a beard!), I'm sure the morning of, he will clean up....if the beard is even still around!  If both of you are truly concerned, maybe the guys can all get ready together.  And if your FI is that good of friends with him, and he shows up with an untamed beard, maybe he can joke around about it, as Poke recommended.  Make sure to have those trimmers handy!  haha

    But seriously, I think your heart was in the right place with the question.  You know that it's not polite to dictate what the GM do with their facial hair, but if push comes to shove and you have a uni-bomber standing next to you the day of, your FI can choose to say something.  I would seriously reconsider ever posting on that board again.

    </div><div>Haha...FI's original major was electrical engineering but he wasn't loving it so he went for marketing/economics minor.  He wouldn't have been completely clueless, but this friend just seems to be socially a little funny.  He's a great guy though and I'm happy he will be with FI on the day of the wedding.  </div><div>
    </div><div>Its going to have to be the wait and see approach.  There really isn't a whole lot of sense saying something right now either way, because he may not even have a beard currently (we haven't seen him in a few months).  We will see him in August and we will go from there.  And of course, even if he has a crazy beard in August (I can't imagine wanting to!) he still may choose not to have one in October for the wedding.

  • OMG I can not believe the level of superiority that comes off that board! I forgot that posting on an Etiquette forum on TK somehow gives them right to talk to people like they're trash. And I am oh so certain every one of them went to etiquette school and have all the wedding etiquette answers right there in their back pocket. Puh lease! They're  googling this stuff just like the rest of us, or just making it up.

    They were WAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYY out of line. Don't worry about what they said. Clearly someting is lacking in their lives when their idea of fun is to go on TK and attack someone over a simple question.

    As far as your GM, even though it is probably against etiquette, if you and your FI think he wouldn't be offended if you asked, then I don't see why you can't. I know my FI and his GM are all incredibly close and wouldn't be hurt if  he asked them to trim their beard a bit . However, if you think it would hurt his feelings, I'd just let it go. Chances are neither you nor your FI will be focused on how anyone else but each other look on that day.  Smile

As far as your GM, even though it is probably against etiquette, if you and your FI think he wouldn't be offended if you asked, then I don't see why you can't. I know my FI and his GM are all incredibly close and wouldn't be hurt if  he asked them to trim their beard a bit . However, if you think it would hurt his feelings, I'd just let it go. Chances are neither you nor your FI will be focused on how anyone else but each other look on that day.

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re:Ugh...Seriously? : Yeah, that's the point in these boards. If all the married ladies stopped posting, who would be around to answer questions?  Also - if you come to the etiquette board and ask a question on etiquette we will give you an answer on the proper etiquette for the situation. <strong>People ask questions on the board every single day and get the answers they need. It's people that have rediculous questions and/or histories of being rude/tacky (or in this case, very superficial) that get the HOs of the regs.

    <div>It would all make sense if I could get a yes/no answer.  I asked a simple question: Would it be alright to ask the guys to make sure they are "cleaned up".  Not shaved, just trimmed and neat looking.  The answer should have been yes, you can or no, you can't</div><div>
    </div><div>What I didn't need is to be told that I am a asshole, micromanaging, superficial, have my priorities wrong, shallow, materialistic, judgy, etc...</div>
