Ask Amy: Bridezilla didn’t want uncle to attend wedding, but still wanted a gift (pretty funny)
M Live.com ^ | 6/29/2023 | Amy Dickinson

Dear Amy: Four months before my daughter’s wedding, she told me that her uncle (my brother, “Dave”) would make her feel unsafe if he was a guest. She asked me not to invite him.

My daughter is very politically progressive, as are many of her friends, and although she and Dave have always had a good relationship (I thought), he is a conservative voter and has supported candidates we all abhor.

Dave has always been very nice, so my daughter’s request surprised me.

Uncle Dave got off cheap. He didn't lose anything but a bunch of deadbeat family members. He's going to save on Christmas presents too this year. With all the money he's going to be saving he can go to Vegas and have a good time.

Make a $1000 campaign donation to President Trump in the name of the wedded couple, and send them a copy of the check. :)

I found it more disgusting than funny.

These are the tolerant, hate-free-zone, vile hypocrites.

Best thing that could have happened to Dave!

He should send her new husband annulment papers and a referral to a good divorce attorney. He’s gonna need it.

What a great idea!

I have a hunch that Uncle Dave was thrilled beyond belief that he didn’t have to attend another spoiled liberal snowflake wedding and pretend to wish them the best. The money saved is just icing on the cake.

Don’t worry. I’ll have Dave over to my place. We’ll have a BBQ, drink some beers, and make fun of our leftist relatives.

Typical —socialists ( I REFUSE to call them progressives; there is NOTHING progressive about their communist behavior).

Socialists that think you should ignore the horrible way in which they treat you and they still expect something from you. After all, they’re “deserving”.....they were “counting on it”. Glad Uncle appears to have washed his hands of them.

Go back to your little lib “safe spaces” and suck your thumbs and moan “woe is me”

The mother here is at least as bad and socially tone deaf as the daughter here.

The most precious commodity we have in life is time. You can never get a second back, nor extend you appointed time.

Don’t waste your time, money or affections on people who seek only to abuse your generosity. Spend your time with those who value your kindness. It’s a very simple and rewarding rule to live by

The mom says, “I wrote Dave a very nice note, telling him that we would not be comfortable with him at the wedding and that he would not be invited.”

LOL - she must be a very creative writer !

And then she says she doesn’t understand why Dave won’t send her brat a thousand bucks.

She must think she is a VERY creative writer.
