I flame claudias91 for thinking her FI's parents are supposed to pay for her wedding.

ETA: LFF for CourtaniaLynn thoughts and prayers for your family.

I almost have to flame the OP on this one because the "only reason" mpierce came to play was because OP sent her the link? After they ended their friendship, and she stepped out of the wedding she really sent the bride a link? "look what everyone is saying about you". I think ataloss, mpierce and terminator were all the same people. IMO

I thought it was a pretty quiet week! Thank you all for providing entertaining reads in this thread. I'd like to give a shout out to the 17 year old who didn't go bezerk when everyone told her that it's best to wait for marriage. She took advice that she probably did not like very well.

And remember, wasn't OP 44 or something? I wonder how old the bride was if she had her mom call. That's why it all seems so wishy washy. I don't know what to think.

A big flame to every single person who hears I'm getting married and takes it upon themselves to tell me why their marriages failed and offer advice that obviously worked so well for them.. It consumes a good portion of my work day.

Not board related, but it's sticking with me: I flame you, ironic hipster dude I saw at Walmart last night. You growing a hitler moustache confuses me to the point of anger, and I feel it disqualifies you from hipster status. Also, wtf, Walmart doesn't need help maintaining it's weird and creepy rep. Shoo hitler hipster, shoo!

TKzilla · March 2013

Thanks for all the loves and the totally not creepy internet stranger hugs. I've pretty much slept anywhere from 12 to 16 hours every day for the last three days. I did take my FI out to dinner for his birthday last night, and we watched Anchorman (his favorite movie). There has been a lot of cuddling, watching travel shows about Disney World (my ultimate go-to thing when I'm sad. Oh Disney, I love you) and a lot of food. I am giving myself through Sunday to "grief-eat" before it's back to dieting and working out to fit in my dress.

My parents are coming home either tomorrow or Sunday so I'm going to finally get my ass out of bed and make a few dinners and desserts for them so my mom doesn't have to cook when she gets back. I'm also considering talking to the florist for the wedding and changing my mom's corsage to one made of lilies (my grandmother's name is Lillian). Just not sure if (a) that's too much, (b) I should make it a surprise, or (c) it'll just make her sad.

Reading through the flames for this week has been highly entertaining since I missed pretty much all of them. I'm flaming my boss for asking me if I could drive over to the next city to deliver a car seat for her kid (they have one at the house, it was just "inconvenient") the day I found out my grandmother was going to die. I just ignored that text. I also flame my brother's "best friend". I couldn't get up with my brother via phone to tell him what was going on, so I got on FB and posted a message to his friend and neighbor's wall. It went like this:

Me: Hey, go knock on my brother's door and get his ass out of bed. I need him to call me. Family emergency.

DB: I don't see a "please" in that sentence, missy.

Me: My grandmother is dying, don't f*ck with me.

DB: And I am soooo sorry about that baby girl, but that's no excuse to talk to ME that way.

Me: Go to hell.

DB: Yo F*CK YOU!

And then he deleted me. FI said he'd punch him in the face if/when we see him again.

Posted by Angelface225[/QUOTE]

I completely agree with angelface. It's not "Your Day" when you invite others. It becomes an event for family/friends, which means the bride and groom should be proper hosts to their guests. In other words if the bride and groom are drinking high end champagne and eating lobster/ filet, their guests should be given this option too.

LFF to everyone here for FFF. I'm having a generally crappy day and this has brightened it significantly.

Also FFF to OwningAHome. Pretty much everything she says makes me like this:

A totally random flame for the guy who shoved me down the up escalator at Penn Station on Sunday night because I was in his way,

The ambulance team was fantastic and my cuts and bruises may heal in time for spring clothes. But you will be an asshole forever.

TKzilla · March 2013

I totally don't understand the idea of not liking other people opening presents because YOU don't have presents. I'm seriously considering not opening gifts in front of guests at my shower because I don't have a poker face, and that's a LOT of pressure to be equally surprised/elated/stoked for every present. It just sounds like a lot of anxiety on my end. I'd rather thank everyone for the gifts and open them later with my FI, and then send thank you cards after.

Posted by CourtaniaLynn[/QUOTE]

And it also depends on how many gifts one has to open. I just recently went to a baby shower and it took almost 2 hours to open the gifts... it was not fun! In a case like that, I would have much rather her open the gifts after we left. For a typical shower, I expect gifts to be open in front of me so as a guest I wouldn't care either way.

I'm definitely going to second (or third) that flame of the photographer that posted that picture of the couple looking upset holding a sign saying "What no presents?" or something like that.
