Wedding Beggars

Well we certainly aren't in a hurry to see them.

It was kinda blindsiding. Up until then there were no weird issues.

So, your against small businesses making a reasonable profit? Or is it the prices they charge?

 

[RidgeHunter]

Prices were fair. None of it was stuff my old lady would wear. We bought something cheap as "a gift" after the 6th request to try something else on. Then left as they shouted one final salespitch at us. I got a small cup of wine and some popcorn out of the deal.

In spite of being acerbic I'm overly nice in social situations where others fall short. I need to work on being a bigger ******* when needed.

I'm happy to say we have some Tupperware that is 20 years old, and still working.


Ridge, I was just giving you some grief. You did well as usual.

Lol, Ridge, married couples with no children ALWAYS get the shaft. Just the way it is. No kids, you must travel to my location. No kids, your plans can bend around ours. Then comes all the "I've always wanted kids, so let me tell you all the reasons you should too" B.S. Spare me. All our real friends learned quickly to keep it to themselves.

Next time you're in ATX, the first round is on me (if ya like).

Since it was the 2nd marriage for both of us, the only wedding present I got was from that ole mean turd, Shootin 4 Fun, a nice little LPK for the AR lower I picked up at FBT on our way to get hitched by my best friend who is Internet ordained. Could I have typed a longer sentence?

It's the new Tupperware.

invite them over and don't let them leave until they buy one of your glocks

Right? We can never get couple friends to come to our house. They ask if we can come to them instead. And I usually offer grilled meat, whiskey, and beer! The hell? 50-50 split would be cool. It's 0-100 tho.

Woo! Free booze. Been almost a year since I've been to ATX. Kinda miss it. I'll remember that.

Glock-free house, man.

 

[tRidiot]

Hmmm... now that's interesting. We have always invited folks to come to my place to get together. I usually BBQ and we provide all the booze, food and entertainment, we never ask anyone to bring anything. Are you suggesting this is burdensome to people with no kids?


That's about the only socializing we ever do. Maybe folks just don't like us enough to invite us over or out when they all are socializing without us. That's probably it.

My next rant is people selling things out of their houses to friends and family.

GF and I got invited to a married couples house for one of these travelling home clothing shop things women do now. It's the new Tupperware. That and essential oils.

I thought we were there to hang out, have a drink, maybe help out with setup, buy something if it caught our eye. We all hang out occasionally.

Instead they literally forced us to buy something. It was the only non-relationship ending option. We politely declined like 5 times. Finally bought something we didn't even want just to get out of there. It's sitting here unused with tags until Amvets pick it up at the curb.They were being pretty high pressure. Worse than car salesmen. It was buy that or say "f*ck off". Then they tried to sell us something else too on our way out the door! Jeeze.

I swear. I see why people get married and have kids. You have to in self-defense by your late 20s early 30s. Married breeders always got their hands out. Gotta get in that game.

I swear they were looking at us like "RH and lady RH aren't even married and don't have kids. They must be able to help fund our little family." Cripes! They got rich parents too! I'm poor *******! Lay off.

We were that couple for years, learn to be a dik and or get some gay friends.

I'm just figuring out what I need to support to run for OSA president.

All you need is to pledge that as OSA president, .22lr will be unlimited, in stock everywhere and the price will never exceed 4 cents a round.
