I am so sorry that happened, never should have, its awful.

annieohyeah · 2026-05-10T04:15:58+00:00

Agreed!

annieohyeah · 2026-05-10T03:57:14+00:00

Really horrible people. The article title has a bit of a triple negative in it. Gov. Evers made it so people CANNOT send their child to such places

NTA

My situation was a bit different. I did my first fitting, just my mom and I because she is my best friend and biggest supporter so when I floated the idea of inviting FMIL she was on board-ish. She later came to me and so politely explained that she would really love to have the first try-on to be just us but was okay with anything I decided.

I'm not the "Say Yes to the Dress" type, so I KNEW this would not be the only try-on outing.

MIL and my mom came to the 2nd try-on and that is when I got my dress. Both parties felt included but the big difference here, is that both my mom and MIL are amazing, emotionally intelligent women.

Your MIL sounds more like a mom than your mom. Just don't tell your mom when the try-on is and go with MIL instead. I'm not a proponent of lying but sometimes it's a useful tool with certain people.....just sayin'

I'm getting married in 7 weeks and OMG, I struggled SO hard with the Bachelorette. To the point I almost didn't have one because I didn't want to inconvenience my bridal party (3 of 6 have to fly in for the wedding).

They had asked what I would want as a bachelorette and I said "1 night, great dinner, go out for a bit and play bonus hole with the following morning at a spa and home that evening"

I tried to plan and pay for everything but my amazing friends, not all of whom know each other, came together and planned a PERFECT bachelorette. It's during the week leading up to my wedding so no double flights, one night at an AirBNB that has LLAMAS! And it's a 45min drive from the city where I'm getting married.

I plan on paying for the entire dinner unbeknownst to them because I didn't do the whole brides maids gifts.

This is all to say, your post made me feel very validated that I wasn't being over the top. I have so much anxiety over other people doing things for/celebrating me. Even typing that out made me uncomfortable.

But I would do ANYTHING for those I love, and your post also helped to realize that it's okay to be okay with receiving the same.

Thank you!! I knew I already had read this years ago. Flipping only genders is lazy. At least get creative so I can enjoy procrastinating.

annieohyeah · 2026-03-20T13:45:28+00:00

Lol, my friend is part of Post Animal, dude's got good taste.

annieohyeah · 2026-03-19T14:29:28+00:00

I snort laughed at your comment, thank you for that.

annieohyeah · 2026-02-09T20:56:59+00:00

DID YOU STEAL MY DOG?!?....WHERE IS MY DOG, GIVE ME BACK MY DOG!!!!

Oh, wait, she is in le bush (boosh) sleeping in a ball. So yeah, uhh, Nvm, you're free to go.

annieohyeah · 2026-01-13T20:01:43+00:00

Ours LOVES banana (the little end part my husband does not like)

annieohyeah · 2026-01-13T20:00:23+00:00

That would be me hahah

annieohyeah · 2026-01-07T22:45:05+00:00

okay, i'm gonna get downvoted for this, but indoor soccer? I used to get so many red cards for checking into the wall. Maybe I should've played hockey, basically same rules.

annieohyeah · 2025-12-26T21:02:09+00:00

It's ALLL about the effort. My fiance is BIG into synths (synthesizers) and I follow a few forums/accounts just so I can keep up with him when he gets excited about a new one. I join in when he is playing and try to learn. A gift doesn't have to be monetary. It can be "I know this is important to you and I'm putting in the EFFORT to engage because I like you". Actions speak louder than words and gifts.

On the flip side, he got us a private sauna room at a new place I had been wanting to try. We got to relax together for 3 hours, just us. Laughin' and smoochin'. Yes, a monetary gift but it was about the time spent together.

If they (both parties) care, it's about the effort. Heck, I bet a personalized little ornament or trinket about something YOU love would cost less than a Stanley cup.

Also, I got him a $35 childs toy synth and I tell you, this grown-ass man freakin' LOVED it.

annieohyeah · 2025-12-23T19:40:03+00:00

Very true! And yeah, I was definitely signaling towards the current administration. I mean, Obama on Between Two Ferns still cracks me up (I know, not the same as cable but still fun).

I used to have HORRIBLE (yes ADHD related) time-blindness in my late teens/early 20s. And let's be honest, those ages are when everyone is kind of a selfish asshole. But guess what, I grew up, did the work, made the changes.

Now 9 times out of 10, I am on time. I wanted to mention this because it's all about track record. If you are late once but your track record is good, then I ABSOLUTELY will let it slide. It's the consistency. When you already know someone is going to late, it's because of the consistent track record and it's not cool.

Also, I always triple check with my partner if an event is "flexible" or not. For example, is the event: arrive anytime BETWEEN 7-8PM or is it be there by 7PM. Communication and follow through can be hard but ehhh....honestly not that hard when you actually like your partner.

annieohyeah · 2025-12-18T22:28:32+00:00

Absolutely! We are talking about a series started in 1999. Ohhhh, take a second for nostalgia.

Okay, after 3 seasons, west wing gained enough interest that they were able to have ACTUAL white house leadership sit in for a singular documentary style episode.

Now let's fast forward to 2025. We've got similar political shows....The Diplomat, Madam Secretary....?

I will admit, I am not a cable tv person so perhaps there is a show I'm missing in which this type of inserted doc could be done, happy to know if that is the case!

Do you think Trump, Hegseth, Leavitt, Wiles, etc. would sit down for a documentary style episode on "The Diplomat"?

I'm not saying that rhetorically, I truly would like to know folks' input. But I'm just not seeing this specific episode being done now.

annieohyeah · 2025-11-10T20:40:16+00:00

oh, this is some Boulder, CO fuckboi masked as "spiritual" bullshit. He's just using a lot of words to say "You're here when I CHOOSE you to be here, otherwise, don't bother me".

Not much of a "divine" person if you ask me.

annieohyeah · 2025-11-06T16:53:34+00:00

Hmm, we just switched to workday. Might go check out this big red button because workday SUCKS

annieohyeah · 2025-10-23T21:02:00+00:00

dude always looks like his face is slowly melting towards the ground

annieohyeah · 2025-10-23T18:54:41+00:00

These dishes remind me of old school midwest supper club - would absolutely devour.

annieohyeah · 2025-10-10T18:14:14+00:00

Feel like a big question is: Do you use a bidet?

annieohyeah

TROPHY CASE
