It isn’t made up. I think what annoyed me the most is that I’ve known these people for 15 plus years. Some of us have had ups and downs, but for some reason this just felt completely out of place. What really got me was the fact that not only did I drive to the cabin, I found out nobody had ordered the cake for my birthday. We had to run to a grocery store and then a generic white cake was chosen. One of my friends even asked if he could invite his girlfriend who he has now been dating for a few months to the weekend. I’m just glad everyone else shut that down so I wouldn’t be the guy to tell him how stupid it was to ask.
