Planning weddings

[Mr Bread]

GOD rough ridin' DAMNIT! I JUST SAY A BABY SLEEPING IN A CAR SEAT ON MY WAY BACK FROM THE BAR AND TOTALLY LOST MY BUZZ. I'M SO rough ridin' PISSED NOW!


 

I cannot tell you how many times I have been robbed of a sweet, sweet buzz for this exact reason.

i'm really feeling like you are focusing on the kids way more than you should be and it's taking you off your game. what if, just for exercise sake, the next time you are at a wedding and you see a kid you just pretend like they are a "little person"? kind of like that whole imagining the audience is naked when having to give a speech or something. 

That's not going to work.  I'm a terrible imaginer.  My brain won't let me lie to myself.  I still know.

maybe pick a table by a wall/corner and then you grab the seat next to it so that you can't see the whole room. then just have bros bring you drinks and you go to pound town on the drinks and there's no way that you see someone under the age of 18 unless your friend pulls a prank and pranks you by bringing one over to the table.

Oh man, it doesn't get any more musical elitisty than John Prine.  I could come back from that and just crap my pretension all over your thread.  My heart wouldn't be in it though and that's not fair to John.

Went to family Christmas with 10 little kids. Old SB Gramps read a 2-minute long devotional prayer thingy before Christmas dinner and only like two of the kids were quiet. Future Mrs. Benny looked at me afterward and whispered "Uhhhhhh clearly we made the right deciszh on no kids at the wedding."    Oh also SB whole family sung Joy To The World around the piano, which was really really great.


Anyway, we're registering for stuff now. Tips?

1. Don't register for China. You'll never use it.
2. Register for some tools and cool stuff like that.

[SkinnyBenny]

Sounds great. Neither of us has any desire to get china.

I like how your wife talked during the prayer about how annoying the talking kids were. But the sing along sounds fun.

the singalong does sound fun. also, omg kids. it is just impossible for a normal person to just go about their business in anyway whatsoever when one of them is within fifty feet. i mean what in the world is wrong with them. the kids i mean obviously and not the completely normal adult that isn't able to just go about their own business.

Also I forgot how butthurt daris gets about the kid thing so that was a nice blast from the past when bumping this 120 day old thread.

there'd be a dance competition with candy payouts towards the middle/end of the reception.  i guess i'd give out some participation candy too.  nothing too early though

i think you are confusing butthurt w/ me making fun of you, but that was to be expected.

on a side note, i was at orange leaf the other day and had just got my favorite orange leaf to eat and sat down. guess what happened? a woman and a five year old walked into the orange leaf. what did i do you ask? stood up, threw my orange leaf in the trash and walked out. orange leaf offically ruined.

Don't register for a quesadilla maker, you won't use it.

You know what really pisses me right the hell off?  When I go somewhere with my adorable little kid and no one pays attention.  He usually just sits on my lap adorably, but sometimes he also will read a book with me or I'll let him look through pics of us on my phone.  Most times we do that he smiles and sometimes says "daddy!" or "hello!" and laughs.

Bottom line, this is adorable.  People follow those twitter feeds with adorable kid stuff and viral youtube vines and what not and it is right in front of their face and do I even get a compliment for raising a great kid?  The future of America?  A well behaved youngster?

Nope.

Is it any wonder that there is a line half way up the aisle every basketball game so parents can take their children to sit on Snyder Santa's lap, take a pic, have him ask them about their studies and sign something to memorialize the encounter and an extra special place in their child's heart?  IS IT?

Well, no.  It isn't much of a wonder at all.  Because this whole damn country has gone to hell because of people that don't love kids in general, but my kid in specific, and think that they are just God's gift to society because they can poop in toilets and legally drink and what not.
