This is what makes me a monster - TK edition.
So, I've seen a lot of threads about people doing the JOP thing and then having a vow renewal after and it always gets people riled up. And I get the whole, it's not good to lie to your loved ones and make them think this is your only wedding thing, but ultimately, I really just don't care. I don't care if they call it a vow renewal or a wedding. Hell, I don't even care if they call it Mr. Muffins House of Waxing and Bail Bonds. I also don't care why they are doing it. It's their life, their money, their friends, so it has no impact on me. And honestly, even if I was lied to and went to a fake wedding, I don't know that I would care.
And that's why I'm a monster.
Now you.

I really dont care what kind of BC women use, it's a question for your gyno, not a random internet stranger!
I know I have said it before but I don't see anything wrong with garter throws or dollar dances because it's normal to me. It doesn't gross me out or offend me.
If I see a post where the OP has only 1 post and still does when I check on the post later, I usually don't bother reading it.

Oh god, this too. Yuck. I don't give two fuucks about your BC.
[QUOTE]I agree, Cew. I just don't care that much. I know I have said it before but I don't see anything wrong with garter throws or dollar dances because it's normal to me. It doesn't gross me out or offend me.

This is normal around my area also. I didnt have them, but I have had family members that have, I just dont care.
KD- The whole birth control and other more squeamish posts have me kind of skeeved out honestly. I agree with you on that one.
[QUOTE]They aren't normal around here, so when a coworker had one at a wedding a couple of years ago, I was a little freaked out. The money part is weird, but<strong> I also just wouldn't want to dance with that many randoms.

Dollar dances are so common where I am at. I don't want one for the highlighted reason. It would weird me out really bad. Half of the people coming I have never met before. "Oh hi there great uncle Sam.. Why is your hand on my ass?" Ya no, I am going to be nervous enough as it is.

[QUOTE]I don't really care what people do with their weddings anymore unless it's really, really appalling. I've been posting here for how long and I stopped caring about etiquette (hence I hardly post on WR threads on E) Whatever people do with their weddings doesn't affect my life directly so I don't get why some people get all riled up over dollar dances, vow renewals, envelope labels, <strong>A & B lists</strong> etc.

Thanks Katie I like you already.
I know this is the poop, sex swing board. But I guess I draw the line at questions that should be asked of a medical professional. And just cause it works for some rando online, doesnt mean it works for you.
My favorite thing at a wedding I went to was when someone passed out keys to all the young women before the couple arrived. When they did the DJ announced that the groom was now a married man, and asked that all the ladies he knew before return his house key. About 30 women walked up he was so embarrassed.
The VR/JOP thing with a PPD following isn't a big deal to me, either. It bugs me that people will so willingly lie to their families about such a big thing, but as long as everyone is honest and knows what's going on, whatever. It's not what I would do in my life, but I wouldn't really fault someone for it if they needed to do it.
A lot of things like dollar dances, Jack and Jill parties, cash bars, are completely accepted regionally. I think it sucks when someone gets jumped all over on an international board, even though, quite possibly, everyone they know IRL is completely ok with them dancing with guests for money. The first time I saw a dollar dance, I was a little weirded out, but it may have been a-ok in their circle. I just didn't participate.
Saying a BM's only job is to show up is a little ridiculous, as well. Sure, that may technically be the case, but I would consider myself a sucky friend if that was all I did as a BM, and I would absolutely have my feelings hurt if my BMs decided they were only going to "show up" in the correct dress. If the girls are super busy, I don't think it's ok for a bride to require things of their BMs, but as long as there aren't extenuating circumstances, if a bridesmaid doesn't step up with anything, that's not cool.
I'm having a hard time coming up with something someone hasn't already mentioned.

<div>I agree with this. They're your family and best friends. Come on. If you're asking someone to be a BM and all you expect of them is to show up in a dress, then I just seriously wonder why you asked that person.</div><div>
</div><div>You obviously don't make them slaves, but just to be a listening ear, or to bounce ideas off of each other.</div>

No. You're the exception. I always want to hear about things that you are sticking in your pussy.
Too much?
And yeah, I'm not doing a dollar dance because I don't want to touch people.
And I'm tired of the same answer being said a million times in a thread with no deviation. After the 10th post I just want to be like "Yeah. We get it."
I think I have my cranky pants on today.
We're having a B list and we don't giveafuck. N's family is literally about 110 out of our 150 guests and they have to travel to the wedding. It's a situation where his mom's family is huge and so is the stepmom's and he grew up with all of them, so they're all really close. We can't invite one without the other and so on. We had to cut a bunch of friends to have the family there and, because it's important to him, I'm okay with that. But I'm not okay with finding out only 50 of them are coming and we could have invited a ton of other people we love, so we're doing two rounds of invites. I know, I know, everyone hates it. ::Shrugs::

I think TK is crazy paranoid about Internet security. Don't get me wrong: I'm not about to post my date of birth and social security number in my signature. But my full name and e-mail address? BFD.
