I honestly can't believe your cousin did this, it's BEYOND rude. But I do think, that it's petty to do something snarky back. I'd ignore the text and take the high road and get them something (small) off their registry.

[QUOTE]Pick your exotic honeymoon destination, all within the wonderful state of Maine. Naples is actually a great little town on a lake where my family has been spending part of the summer for longer than I've been alive.

Hey! I grew up near there (Naples AND the sign post)!

Wow. Some people are absoloutely absurd. I cant imagine ever asking for a gift that was that ridiculous (much less asking for a specific gift, at all.)

Screw giving them a nice wedding card. I'd be more tempted to fold a sheet of computer paper and write, crappily, CONGRATS on the inside....and maybe put it on the ground and drive over it a few times....

Not seriously. But it'd be fun to watch the reaction

I love that people with 18 and 50 total posts understood me immediately but people with over 1,000 are elbow-deep trying to pull their panties out of their buttcracks because of my $10 bill suggestion.

Yes, the conclusion many of you finally reached is correct -- just like leaving a two-penny tip for crappy service is actually more insulting than leaving nothing, a $10 bill for people who requested plane tickets is more insulting than an empty wedding card.

Now back to your regularly scheduled clenching.

Someone needs to tell him this is rude. Can you talk to your aunt or uncle (his parents) and have them share the info with him? I am sure (or at least hope) they would be embarassed to find out he is doing this.

I wouldn't even give them a card.

Maybe yor dad can find a musical card that plays, "I'm a leaving, on a jet plane..."

Everytime I unintentionally do something rude or tacky, I'm going to come to this thread to feel better about myself.

Seriously though, that's terrible.
