Broseph is totally being a selfish ass. But PP created the rift, and it's really up to PP to fix it. Tell PP to get in touch with Broseph and work this shit out. PP needs to man up and take the punch or whatever he's got coming to him.

Yeah, that's not a bad point. Not getting to come to the wedding may be the whatever, though.

He doesn't have to. It's a wedding. There will be plenty of other people there. It's not like asking him to a dinner party with 6 people.

That's exactly what I was going to say!

It wasn't just a disagreement though, he doesn't want to hang out with the guy who nailed his girlfriend.

Doesn't want to see him then. Be around him. Whatever.

I agree he's being a big fat baby about it, but I can understand his feelings.

And an apology from someone you simply don't want to see or speak to or any of the above? Sort of pointless.

Ugh. It's a mess to be sure. Poor Bon Bon and Bob Bob.

Poor bon bon, I'm guessing you weren't actually trying to solicit advice on the matter.

No, I mean, I do know Broseph and PP and have given it a lot of thought already, I wasn't soliciting advice. But I don't mind people discussing it; it's just the kind of thing buffistas would discuss. And maybe I do need someone else's POV. So go forth and speculate.

The thing is, I can understand how Broseph feels. If the woman that cheated with my boyfriend was going to be at my sister's wedding, I wouldn't be pleased. I'd probably still be a little pissed at my sister for being her friend. BUT, I would say "I really would rather not see that bitch, but I want you guys to be happy on your wedding day. Just don't sit her at my table and tell her not to talk to me"

Yeah, I completely understand Broseph not wanting to talk to PP, though a lot of time has passed (and he forgave the Gladiatrix; but that's probably because he's a bit misogynist). It's inappropriate to make demands on *us*. We shouldn't have any problems inviting whomever we want to OUR g-d wedding. But I don't want to start out on that foot with Broseph and F-MiL.

Why can't these sailors develop a perfectly good toy boat fetish?!

I think I might have an obsession with the fetish. Because I am trying to investigate it again!

It's inappropriate to make demands on *us*.

TOTally, but that's family for you.

I think I might have an obsession with the fetish. Because I am trying to investigate it again!

Has anyone ever come up with... additional documentation?

Wow, I really would have expected Edward Gorey to look a lot more like something out of Edward Gorey. Fun!

He did kind of. He wore sneakers and a full length fur coat to the ballet, and had earrings and big rings even as far back as the early sixties.
