Is this normal/should I drop it? this was an episode of Friends the answer is the same, tell the idiot his dick is showing and if he's as dumb as the guy in that episode just  alternately roll with it and make sure to very innocently ask everyone in visual range what they think of his shorts, someone will do the work for you

Remember the controlling teenage boyfriend who wanted his gf to stop wearing leggings, and his retaliation was "how about this, then I'm going to wear gray sweatpants in public" and she was like "okay" Nobody wants to see that

Bride definitely could & should have apologized for an oversight, would have cost nothing, rather than being TA, which also cost nothing. The close of the post was killer, the fact that op cares for the bride's pets tells us that the bride is any combination of: sexist or defending a sexist, knows she hosed up, or doesn't think vets are real doctors. Which is a fine goon opinion to have but I'd like anyone who has it to be willing to say it to the person who cares for their animals.

I agree that the bride was totally the rear end in a top hat, but in my experience only huge weenies insist on their titles being used in situations that aren’t professional. She could have just easily said “can you believe this piece of poo poo?” And gotten on with her life.

There was kind of an update by op in WIBTA if I told my sister in law she needs to let us know what’s going on with my brother, so we can actually help? quote:Hey everyone, OP here. I’m not sure about posing updates so let me know if this is incorrect. So... It seems pretty obvious everyone was right and there was major abuse. They couldn't answer questions and such, so there's probably legal battle/police work right now. Hopefully things go ok...

I would be upset also if waitress flirted solely with my boyfriend. At the very least, I would expect proper waiting ettiquite to be that she flirt with both of us equally. On the other hand, I might place my penis on the table so she could accurately gauge how much flirting she should do. My wife is fine with this technique.

There's a difference between formal titles and what you use in speech. My late dad was a Ph.D in mathematics. He never used the title socially (or indeed professionally; it was a Quaker school.) Much of his mail, other than bills, was addressed to "Dr. Dad". A wedding invitation is among the most formal pieces of mail going. You'd normally expect the bride to be super careful about addressing everybody correctly; yes, a vet, a surgeon, and a Ph.D should all be addressed on the invitation and envelope as "Dr." That said, OP is a jerk for complaining and OB (Bride) is a jerk for throwing a hissy.

All those people are doctors or they aren’t dude. In professional situations they all get called Doctor. Asking me to call you doctor in a social situation makes you a dick.

On a formal wedding invitation, the envelopes should be addressed using the formal title, which would in fact be Dr. This is an established etiquette rules regarding formal wedding invitations, so if the wedding invitations were not supposed to be formal then it wouldn't apply if the bride didn't want it to, but it seems from the implications that the bride was following the standard American etiquette regarding wedding invitations except that she did not use the proper title for her female vet. It is not actually analogous to insisting upon being addressed as Doctor face-to-face in a social setting.

And they'd have a much nicer house. In fact, it's very R&M to lean on memes about the human experience but have little to no knowledge of it firsthand.

luxury handset posted:some people are just grody but lack of self care is a huge red flag for depression, especially in someone who was previously well kept Yeah, when I’m doing good, I brush my teeth, comb my hair, shave, wear nice clean clothes, all of that. When I’m depressed, it’s like the part of my brain that handles that poo poo goes on vacation. This is especially bad for me because I go through periods of depression long enough to erode those self-care habits. I have to rebuild my “don’t be a disgusting slob” routine from the ground up frequently. It ruins all of my habits really, from reading, writing and drawing, hobbies, sleep, keeping contact with friends and everything else. I’m gonna have a fun couple of months unfucking myself once this current bout of depression is over.

I think the OP was silly for having a fit over it as opposed to just writing the bride off as garbage though.

Most of what I saw indicated 100-150 thousand for an equine surgeon, which is certainly high, but still lower than even a general practitioner and nothing like a highly paid specialist.
