Bon, as much as we would hope that Broseph would grow the fuck up and not give you crap about inviting your friend to the wedding, I think that we all know what's going to happen here. Especially if Broseph would be so classless as to start a fight at his brother's wedding.
Natter 58: Let's call Venezuela!
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Yeah, it's a delicate situation where I don't want to give in to a completely unacceptable request, but in the context of family dynamics, I don't have a choice. Bob and his brother are very close, his brother just happens to be kind of a selfish asshole.
If you could invite the gladiatrix, that might make the inevitable wedding fight EVEN BETTER!
I like Teppy's solution.
Embrace the weirdness. Wear leather gauntlets to your wedding.

She could burst out of the wedding cake....
I think the lesson here is, "Don't fuck the kind of person who goes on to be a contestant on American Gladiators."
(Note, I know absolutely nothing about the show, so if any of you are in fact contestants, I mean you no insult.)
Oy, Bon Bon, that is so sticky. Hopefully PP will understand that it is sort of an impossible situation.

I know you didn't ask, but IMNSHO, this is where Bob needs to step up and call his brother and say "look, this is my wedding, and either you get to be happy or I get to be happy. Did I mention that this is MY wedding? Because I will be pissed at you the entire time because you can't manage to spend three hours in a room with someone that you're mad at over something that happened FIVE YEARS AGO. Yes, you were wronged, and it was a shitty thing to do, but it's been over for a while. Think about it and call me back. If I don't hear from you, that means that you've decided to be a grown up and get over it."

Because Broseph is the kind of guy who REALLY carries a grudge. He is threatening not to go to his only brother's wedding, the person to whom he is closest to in the world! Aggression doesn't work with him; he hyper-aggresses back. So he won't go to the wedding, and Bob Bob will lose a brother. Or he WILL go to the wedding, get drunk, and start something with PP.
