Regiftings wrong but....

So my fi owes a guy some money. He likes to think he knows sports but with this giants/patriots superbowl he owes about 3,000 dollars. So we came to an arrangement with his bookie. Fi's gonna give him all the wedding gifts and 500 dollars cash. It'd be real helpful to just have the guest pile the presents in the back of the guys cube van. My question is would you think something was up if you were asked to hand Vinni your crock pot so he can load it in a van? I mean I'm not expecting to get to much at the actual wedding anyhow. Most of the stuff was sent to Vinni's house already. I changed the address on my online wedding gift listings so.

One more question. If your husband caused his own leg to be broken by a bookie would you let him ride down the isle in a wheel chair... Or make him limp his tushy up front?

  • it wasn't even good MUD
  • if my FI got us in such a precadicament because he was gambling/betting with money he doesn't have and consequently messing with the wedding he wouldn't have to worry about the bookie breaking his leg... *I* would!

    Plus the wedding would probably be off... I'd be seriously questioning him.

  • Just send a mass fcbk message asking everyone for cash instead so it's more convienent for the bookie. Your wedding gift to him can be a cane he can use to crutch down the isle. HTH!

  • just have your FI change his last name to yours...and live your lives hiding from his bookie.

    Bank account.... I'm getting a keystone keg with plastic cups. I'm making the 24 members of my family pay their way in while also making them bring dishes to pass as the reception... finally I'm making the guests use porta pottys. You really think I have a bank account?

    I didn't.  This is the lamest troll in all history.  Lamer than her bookie-induced gimpy FI.

    <div>I know you think you're trolling, but I was at a wedding where the beer was served in cans out of a plastic cooler, the whiskey in tiny plastic disposable shot glasses, and the meal was cooked by the family.  The only toilet in the park was an outhouse.  It was the most fun I've ever had at a reception.  You should be so lucky.</div>

    Banned for WHAT?  For posting inane threads?  That's not really a bannable offense.

  • Okay then... I guess I've never been a member of a message board where constant trolling wasn't a bannable offense.

  • Do you only come out to point out obvious trolls? Is that going to be your thing?
  • I don't see why someone would bother to flex their mod power to ban someone who isn't hurting anything or attacking anyone.  Even if he or she is completely stupid.

    ^^ See that?  Even more bannable than OP.  Maybe Bay can make her first mod act banning me.

  • That means Becky's got to try and take over the PS board. Then she can truly go the way of Amethyst.

    I know.  Seriously, if you are going to troll, at least troll about something believable.
