Since when are baby showers held from 8pm to 1am with cash bars?

[Mr. K]

sounds like the makings of a new TV reality show

[TheRhinelander]

Two key words are repeated throughout the story.

“of Brockton”

All you need to know right there.

Reader comments on BH site are priceless.

Someone asked, "Where the heck do they find people like this?"

The reply, "In Brockton, of course."

[LadyBuck]

Cash bar? How tacky.

At least when my Italian relatives throw down at weddings, they wait til the cake is cut before fighting over the centerpieces....

We’re classy that way ;-)

Holding a baby shower at at Club Luis De Camoes is very shiek an the “in” thing to dontcha know!

[Opinionated Blowhard]

“I didn’t even get to cut the cake,” lamented Depina.

LOL. Well, Maria, you know what they say -- you can't have your cake and smash it in your b__ch sister-in-law's face too.

“of Brockton”

Do tell ... what is this "Brockton" of which you speak?

[billorites]

I was born in Brockton.

Got out when I was three days old.

Because....this is Massachusetts!

The spirit of Massachusetts is the spirit of America
The spirit of the red white and blue

The spirit that we want to share with you!

Please don’t release a YT video of this!

[Darksheare]

Did anybody shout “Make it rain” in there anywhere?

[CatherineofAragon]

LOL!

[Tupelo]

No surprise here. Many of our cities in these liberal paradises are now more like banana republic towns and cities.

[LadyBuck]

” you can’t have your cake and smash it in your b__ch sister-in-law’s face too.”

Post of the day.

[dblshot]

after his 6-month-old also “got thrown across the room.
This is what happens when you outlaw dwarf tossing at parties.

Just like any other city in Assachusetts, Brockton is a former manufacturing city that’s now declined. Full of immigrants on welfare and SSDI, high crime rate, few jobs to speak of. Just like Lowell, Lynn, Haverhill, Worcester (Worcester isn’t as bad), etc.
