Chef Boyardeez Nuts posted:I feel like "living funeral" is a persistent spontaneous invention of dudes in their 20s with the robust and dynamic social circle that entails. My grandma had a living funeral type thing, she was declining from Parkinson's and so all her relatives and all the kids she'd fostered over the decades came out to say goodbye and tell her how much of a positive impact she's been in their lives.

DemoneeHo posted:I'm just confused on how brother 2 was going to get married at the reception. Was he going to smuggle in a friend who is an ordained minister and do it on the dance floor? Or did OP mean to say they were getting engaged and mispoke? Well it's England so who knows but in the USA you can go to a website, click the 'ordain me' button and you're legally allowed to marry people. Since they're in England I'd wonder how they were going to handle the prima noctis thing with the local baron, but presumably he took care of that before they left for the honeymoon.

Space Skeleton posted:The reasoning was possibly vaguely religion-based. She was a lifelong devout Catholic but I'm pretty sure nothing there says if you are step-siblings you will be cursed with inbreeding issues. Henry VIII argued with the Pope that his marriage to Catherine of Aragon was invalid because she was his sister in-law

Hughlander posted:I recently visited NY for the first time in 25 years with my extended family. We all grew up there and so part of it we went to places we used to go growing up. One of which was a diner on Long Island that when I left in the late '90s had two complete HVAC systems with HEPA filters on one of them, and a separate glass walled 'smoking section' from the outside it looked like frosted glass. But the 'smoking/non' really did work there. Now in the 2020s the glass room is there but it's just a separate dining room. Oh yeah I went to Mississippi for work a few years back and people were smoking in restaurants. Was a real blast from the past.

I was even sent to a special class for idiot children who struggled with walking and crawling before I could start school! Which did wonders for my self esteem I might add Haha yeah I just looked it up and that sounds exactly like my son, suppose I should bring it up with his pediatrician.

She should savescum from the yearly autosave and try and reroll

Pain, even agony, is no more than information before the senses, data fed to the computer of the mind. The lesson is simple: you have received the information, now act on it. Take control of the input and you shall become master of the output.

Ghost Leviathan posted:Verbal agreements with boomer parents aren't worth the paper they're not printed on. They absolutely experience pleasure from leaving their own kids hanging at the last moment. Yeah I heard a story about a guy who had to work for his future father-in-law for seven years unpaid before he could marry his daughter and when it came time for the wedding and she pulled up her veil it was the wrong daughter! He ended up having to work another seven years unpaid to get the right one.
