Rant.
My brother in law called us today to tell us he is buying his parents a new 40" television. We said, that's great.
He says, "Oh, I am just so blessed in life, and oh they do so much for us, and my check was just so big this week".
That's great.
Oh, he tells us, I am going to put your names on it. I said no thanks, we've already gotten their gifts. And have no money to put towards it. He says he doesn't need money and insists.
We don't have the money for s**t like this. We have a wedding in 7 months, and desperately are saving. We want to buy a house soon after. We are getting rid of our cable at the beginning of the year, and Randy is down grading his phone.
If you want to buy them a huge gift, whatever. I already put a lot of thought into the gifts I am giving them. Don't put my name on your gift just because it is more expensive than what I bought.
Do I let it go, AG--or tell him for srs, don't put our names on it.

I agree with the Lunas. It's not necessary that your name gets thrown on, but if he's gonna be a jerk there's no point in fighting it.
Speaking of weddings, though, did you guys know the CB seestur is getting married in May? We're going bridesmaid dress shopping the day after Christmas! I'm the maid of honor. whee

But just remember, you don't want to outshine the bride on her wedding day, but you also don't want to be put in something hideous.

I love it when a good plan comes together.
And when faggots ragequit, and all I can do is stand there going "Art thou frustrated?"
Even through my general apathy I feel like mother ******** Conan the Barbarian.

I am being a bridesmaid in my brother in law's wedding. I really don't want to, but eh. There are only two people on each side, so it's not going to be very crowded. And seestur's opinion is as long as the dress is blue and looks nice next to the other bridesmaid, she doesn't care what we wear =) She's been super awesome about it!

Contrary to all previous schools of thought, it seems that it is indeed possible to win Minecraft...Dill, I'm not much for such heavily themed concepts, but if we could get enough AGers and the server needed for an AG colony, I'd love to get in some group Minecraft. I'm more of a resource gathering type than an epic builder, but I can underground strip mine and make subterranean tree farms with the best of em.

You've told him not to put your names on it and he really should listen when you say that, but I don't think it's something to really get upset about if he doesn't listen to you.

What are the chances I can get you to talk to Kin about a new Dark Cloud game, or a new SSX game that doesn't have motion controls like the Wii one did? I'd request a conversation for a new Sly Cooper game, but it looks like that one's already in the works. Quite excited for that possibility. Maybe you two can talk about bringing Jak and Daxter back in HD. XD
