    1.  VENT:  I hate tailgaters, people who don't actually LOOK where they're going,  people who honk the second a light turns green.  Love:  I have a convertible. 'nuf said.

    2.  VENT - he leaves lights on all the time.  Apparently the off switch doesn't work for  him.  LOVE - That he is the most understanding and supportive person I've ever known

    3.  VENT - Selfish brides irritate me.  While I have little problem with the term it's my day, I really hate when people use that to justify bad behaviour and acting like a 5 year old.  Just because YOU have been planning this since you were 5 doesn't mean you need to act like you're still 5.   LOVE - wedding dresses.  I absolutely love seeing everyone's dresses here.

    4.  VENT - People always think there are special circumstances.  Don't get me wrong, there often are, but you need to evaluate your own circumstances and make your own decisions about what is going to be right for your friends and family.  We can't tell you that.  We CAN however, tell you basic, general etiquette rules so you have a starting place for making your decision.  LOVE - So many of the members here make me laugh daily.  I've met some awesome people and had some good times.    You all rock.  Now come here and give me a hug!

  • 1. Hate: Hanging on for dear life each and every morning, because traffic laws are mere suggestions up here.
    Love: mini-road trips to nearby towns. We've been to Lexington and Concord, and I'm hoping to go to Salem soon.

    2. Love: When I'm in a horrible mood, he can always find some ridiculous way to make me smile. Always.
    Hate: Nagging him to help me out around the house. He'll usually do whatever I tell him to do, but I wish he had more common sense about when things need done.

    3. Love: Dresses, wedding porn, and the details that make a day special.
    Hate: People who forget that "hosting" means taking care of their guests needs, not just their own wants.

    4.Love: Having a bunch of wonderful ladies to talk to (even some local finally!). I'm the only chick in my office, and while I'm used to that, it's nice to get away from it.
    Hate: Posters who are convinced that etiquette is only for the rich. Money doesn't buy class, people.
  • 1 - Vent:  I hate driving in general.  It's stressful and I feel like many people are bad at it.  LOVE:  Um, nothing actually lol.

    2 -  Vent:  His sudden snoring problem.  LOVE:  How even though he doesn't start school for a month he is being a great SAHH and getting lots of stuff done for our new home. 
    3 - Vent:  How stressful wedding planning was and how it seems caused a lot of tension in my family.  LOVE:  thinking up different styled weddings. 
    4 - Vent:  How people don't understand that etiquette does depend on the circumstances.  Etiquette is meant to make the people around you comfortable and happy.  If the dollar dance makes people comfortable and happy in your circle then it's ok.  If something that Emily Post says would offend/upset your circle then don't do it.  And if people think I'm full of it, I got that from my friend's mom who is a trained etiquette consultant. 

    Love:  This board has been very helpful!

    My Bio Updated 4/6/10
  • 1. Vent: Crazy drivers... Why do people have to be in such a hurry that they put other people's lives in danger?Love: I love to just get in a car and drive, put in great music and just drive. 
    2. Vent: .. He has the attention span of a squirrel. Love: He is seriously the nicest person I have ever met, he would do anything for anyone.
    3. Vent: Our photographer got hurt and our wedding party had to help him, which is understandable, but I'm selfish and wondering why he didn't call his assistant. 
    Love: Our limo driver who helped our photog so that we didn't have to. He was the coolest driver I have met!

    4. Vent: People who totally disregard etiquette because they are too lazy or just too rude. 
    Love: the concept. And the board.

  • 1 - about driving  I love being driven by FI. I hate driving myself. But that's because we living in a city with crazy drivers.
    2 - about your bf/FI/H I love just about everything about FI, especially his beard. But it drives me crazy how he doesn't think to go see a dentist/doctor EVER. I feel like a mom making his appointments!
    3 - about weddings/wedding planning/wedding vendors I love how things for our wedding are coming together. I'm really excited to see how it turns out! But I hate how some vendors (*cough*hotel manager at the block *cough*) won't return my phone calls or e-mails FOR A MONTH RIGHT BEFORE THE WEDDING. Yep.
    4 - about Etiquette (either the concept or the board)
    I love how the ladies on here can set people straight when they're out in left field. But I really hate how some people can't seem to turn their snark button off, even when it's undeserved and makes them sound really petty.
