Does this one win the internet?

What in the actual fuck. Is this just what is normal now? I would unfriend, but this is just too good.

    WT.... WT.... WTF??   Where did you find that?   

    I can't stop laughing.  

     I like how the B listed people are not expected to give a gift.  I wonder how the a-listers feel they are expected to give one.






    What differentiates an average host and a great host is anticipating unexpressed needs and wants of their guests.  Just because the want/need is not expressed, doesn't mean it wouldn't be appreciated. 
  •  I will give her a couple of points for those shreds of etiquette coming out, but she is still in the negative.


    Wonder if she is a knottie?

  • I hope not because I could be busted, but hey since she's not a real friend...

  • $100 cover?  What kind of place is it?

    Like the way she threw in there SHE wants to do shot with her bitches?  Meaning, $100 isn't going to be enough money, better bring more bitches.

    I think she said the $100 covers the cover + all you can drink for 3 hours, but that's still a lot. I really want to comment that since it's an open invitation, I'm going to come with FI, mom, dad, my son, and 2 brothers. Oh and brother will need a vegetarian option, and dad can't have gluten.

  • I do kind of wonder if this is someone from the knot because of certain things she is trying to get right. I've always wondered if anyone on here would ever find themselves being posted about and how that would all go down...

    I've heard of it happening once, and apparently it wasn't very pretty. Considering I probably will never see this person again (since she's not really a friend, and I no longer live in that state) I really wouldn't be that opposed to her finding this.

  • ^Wasn't it a FMIL and FDIL? They both came on here and vented about each other... and then found each other. Something like that.

    I absolutely love that she is clearly trying to follow etiquette, but isn't really aware of what's up. Poor bride. I bet she's really wellmeaning.

    I'm not really sure about the specifics, I wasn't around when it happened. I've just caught references here and there about it. 

    I feel like she can't really be this clueless. I could maybe understand why people might think B-listing is acceptable/not rude, but some of the other things are obviously rude and just common sense. Like mentioning gifts, demanding money to pay for her at the bachelorette party, insulting her friends boyfriend and dictating dress. In what world is this ok? But then again, when the friends just go right along with it, it makes it hard to see what you're doing wrong.

    (TK does not grant me access to quote boxes, apparently.)

  • OMG.  You made my night. 

    I hope all her friends show up in white outfits to her bachelorette.

    I think it was a bride venting about her FSIL and then the FSIL commented on the thread and then it just exploded.

    Live fast, die young. Bad Girls do it well. Suki Zuki.

    There was a FMIL who came on here trying to get us to agree that it was ok for her to invite 11 people to the wedding. The couple agreed since she said she would pay for it, then she pulled her offer and the couple said her 11 friends couldn't come (invites had not gone out yet).

    The bride (Carson) was a member of my month board (May 2013) and got overwhelming support from the board. Interestingly enough, she turned out to be pretty psychotic and is already divorced.

  • Oh, WTF. How old is this bride?? She sounds like she is 15 playing bride to be. And her friends sound just as stupid. I can only imagine what a shitshow the wedding will be.

    @shrekspeare In the OP the "friend" posted on FB saying her budget for the wedding has increased and she has already received RSVPs back that were declining so if any one wanted to go to her wedding to let her know so she could mail an invite. She then continued saying how she's not expecting gifts but if you want to bring something they are registered at BB&B and Target. 

    In the comments she started talking about her bachelorette party and how it's $100 cover plus extra money for tops and shots.....

    I think that's about it


    Edited: Typing too fast :(
  • I can't see it! Someone paraphrase?

    Same here... is there a link I am missing?
