they just want a gift. for real.

send them an envelope with a shit-stained wad of toilet tissue and tell themn this is from when you wiped your duck butter cuz it gots righteous greasy after slam dancing at a sonic youth show in 2004.

i don't know why peole are getting so bitter about this. if you want to go to the wedding then go, if you don't want to go then don't, i'm sure you know which you would rather do.

buy them a gift card to get their belly button pierced from a basement tattoo parlor.

You're a bunch of cold, materialistic cunts, you know that? It's a wedding. Weddings are when people get pissed and have a good time. No fucker's keeping count of presents.

If I was getting married I would be mortified if people I invited thought I was doing so for the presents.

I'm a little bit disgusted, in a Daily Mail way.

this is interesting... i don't know protocol about wedding invites either... i hadn't talked to this girl in over a year-and-a-half... and hadn't seen them (group of friends) in over 2 years or so... we got a nice invite by mail, but no phone call or any other contact... my brother and i were invited... we didn't go or send a gift. are we wankers?

edit--- and it was a 3 and a half hour drive to get there... plus hotel costs, etc...

unless home-slice is loaded and can afford as many guests at his weddinga nd reception as he wants, then to send wedding INVITES, as opposed to announcements, fcould be a ploy for a long-distance gift. especially since they have not talked in years.

I love feeling disgusted in a Daily Mail way. It's that sense of belonging I think.

actually he's right. the last two marriages i have been to i never got them anything. the couple never cared. they were just glad that i came.

Rob Instigator · 02.20.2009, 02:51 PM

it all depends on who is sending the invites. there are plenty of mo-fucks out there who send as many invites as possibe, just hoping that those that cannot come will send gifts. happens all the fucking time.

Hmm, well i think your (old) friend maybe just wants you to stay friends, and he/she just wants to see you again because it's been so long. Maybe they are just a douche that wants a gift, but i really doubt they are. 21 hours itone hell of a drive though... I've been 16 hours in a car straight, making only three 30 minute stops, it's still hell. So i guess it's up to you whether to go or not, just think back and ask yourself if this person is worth it.

Toilet & Bowels · 02.21.2009, 12:16 PM

also, it goes to show that you're still in your friend's thoughts even though you haven't spoken in all these years and that he cares about whether you are there or not on one of the most important days of his life.
