  • Oh honey, no.  No, the world doesn't revolve around you.  You are not the center of our attentions.

    This thread is in references to all of the combined entitled drivel we see on a daily basis.


    Bahaha, I just thought of How I met your mother when I read your comment...

    Nah, if I want to single someone out I'd tag them in the post! Not just make it general. Confrontation does not scare me. I may or may not go looking for it sometimes. 
    Don't do that, that would break TOS and we don't want to lose you. :)

    Oh no not here! In real life! And generally only when drunk but sometimes when sober and just in a bitchy mood.
  • Can I be the dissenting vote on the sticky though? SERIOUSLY nobody reads the stickies. It's where good threads go to die. We're better off waiting and hoping they put this in a newsletter or something. :-p
    I was sort of hoping to make the newsletter. Then all the snowflakes could see it. Not that they'd actually read it, but there'd be some skimming involved.
  • @MagicInk Every time you post my crush on you intensifies. Like my crush on Jennifer Lawrence... I just want to buy you french fries and be your bestie for always.

    I second this.
  • As much as I know you have the board's best interest in mind, these posts do nothing.

    Newbs don't lurk or read pinned posts...they just post.

    You give me too much credit. I did not have board's best interest in mind. Just my own sanity because I was gonna explode if I didn't say something.
  • Mean Girls. That's what comes to mind when reading through this discussion. It's not so much what is said, but how it's said and this discussion started out with a pretty bitchy tone. I'm sure you're venting and blah blah blah, but are we actually saying that you have so much time and energy invested in reading comments on a discussion board that you are brought to the level of frustration that requires a bitchy post about it? Seriously too much effort going into all this. Hell! I'm still trying to find this magical etiquette bible that you all must be following to dish out your holier than thou directives on what is right and what is wrong to do at my wedding. You seem to think there is just one right way to do things, so please let me know who this Jesus of wedding etiquette is that wrote the book on it.

  • You're right. Mean Girls would have been a much better movie if their attitudes were directed toward proper etiquette. Maybe we can do a re-make: The Grown-Up Version.

    I wouldn't say it's the bible or that Miss Manners is Jesus (because even as an agnostic that seems very offensive to those who are religious), but it's a good jumping off point which will help you guide yourself through wedding etiquette. Because there is in fact a right way and a wrong way to go about most things in life. 

    I don't believe my tone was bitchy at all. Frustrated sure. Snarky always. But bitchy? I don't see it. But, meh, I've been called worse by people I actually know who claim to be my friends so I can deal with someone on the internet thinking I'm a bitchy Mean Girl.

    If you're bothered by what I choose to spend my time on, that's really a you problem, not a me problem. I mean, it's a little concerning you're so concerned with how I spend my free time.

    Why is the idea of this re-make making me laugh so hard? 

    I can't come up with good fake lines! I need good fake lines!
  • "Stop trying to make burlap happen. It is NEVER gonna happen." NER but I thought it was funny.
    Funny and needed!!! All the burlap is making me itchy.

    But she lives in the city...

    Sweet! Jennifer Lawerence is going to be in it!

    Good God, please no more pointless fucking stickies!
    I wouldn't mind the stickies if they locked them so no one could comment on them.  I know no one reads them, but we could always link them.
    Don't worry guys, I have the Wedding Police AND the Whambulance on speed dial!
  • Jennifer Coolidge is amazing and needs to be in ALL MOVIES.

  • Duh! and Mila Kunis. And for some reason I think Jennifer Coolidge has to be in too. She's really snarky. 
    I'm really excited for this movie. Because it sounds perfect. I want Kristen Bell too. Maybe Emma Stone as well.

    Question about # 10.
    So its rude to have a registry if you've been living together for years? Because I got contradictory advice when I asked this, on the gifts and registry board. Or am i misunderstanding what you meant?.

    Eta: nevermind. I figured out what you mean.

    Oh no, not at all, we've got a registry and we've been living together for 9 years. So a regular registry (like at Target or Amazon or something) totally fine and dandy.

    What I was saying was that if you don't want physical gifts of any kind, skip any kind of registry all together and that will be a good hint to guests that ya know...ya don't need physical gifts/you prefer cash/ect. In stead of registering for cash, which is rude because you don't ask for cash. Even if you do it in a cutesy way with a poem, a well, a dance, and a honeyfund.
  • I'd also like to put in a request for Kat Dennings. She's also snarky.
  • If there was a movie with JLaw, Mila Kunis, Emma Stone and Kristen Bell, I might want to switch teams.

    I think making a thread where she declared official trollness made it happen. I barely made it down the first page (and was attempting to add a love to a post and got a script error) before shit hit the fan and she got deleted. I would've loved to have read it.
