Check this out: Tacky Weddings
It's been described by Neatorama:
Some of you might be familiar with Cake Wrecks, a site that mocks botched baked goods. This site is sort of like Cake Wrecks for weddings. If you think the camo tuxes are something, wait til you see the Hello Kitty dress and the gal who chose hot pants and bustiers for herself and her bridesmaids. To each his (or her) own, I guess!
Note to self: Make sure my wedding does
not
combine jokey candles that you can't blow out and people covering the bride and groom with Silly String.
Also, I thought the goth weddings were kinda cool, but the Camouflage Weddings are all WTF. The blog poses the following question for our times:
Does there really need to be a severed deer foot cake knife holder?
My grandfather was a telegraph operator.
My uncle has my old AOL email address. Whenever my dad sends things to both of us, it's disconcerting to see it.
My grandparents never had computers, and for most of them, electricity was a new-fangled luxury.
I spent a lot of time on the Internets in the mid-90s. On, you know, boards. That I could telnet to. When I ran out of single line ones to dial up for the night.
I was all over everything in the late 90s. Compuserve, AOL, Delphi, and various FIDONet boards. Just in case, you know.
There was more then one camouflage wedding?
compuserve. something else at the library -- all text. How I loved netscape when I first saw it....
My grandfather was a telegraph operator.
My grandfather worked his way through normal school by selling stereoscopes door to door.
Aims, I was part of a big office move that went off well. My role was putting together a brochure about the new building for employees, including information about break areas, fire exits, parking, coffee and the like. It seemed to be helpful to people to have all that information in one place. It also forced the building manager to come up with policies, instead of his usual "because I said so."
I'm half watching a movie with Mark Wahlberg playing a rocker dude/star. I started thinking he actually sounds pretty good and wondered if he did his own singing. Der. @@ at self.
Ugh msbelle, sorry to hear about the strep. I hates the strep. I hope you feel way better in the morning.
