Is it really that wrong? I mean I understand it's a faux pas, but...is it really that bad? - musubi Nov 17, 09:18 15
- Even Hitler wouldn't do that. -- nm - Loyola Nov 17, 09:23
- You are on a roll today. -- nm - Spawn Nov 17, 09:20
- you never throw a shower for yourself, ever. showers are gift grabs, doing it for yourself is really selfish. -- nm - Elf Andie Nov 17, 09:19 12
  - Is she throwing it herself, or just inviting you herself? - musubi Nov 17, 09:20 7
    - the parents are throwing it for themselves. -- nm - Elf Andie Nov 17, 09:21 5
      - After thinking a bit...it's still not that bad to me. - musubi Nov 17, 09:23 3

        Appreciate that. - musubi Nov 17, 09:25 1
        
        it's basically saying 'buy me stuff.' -- nm - Elf Andie Nov 17, 09:26
      - Ahh...in that case...yeah bad form. -- nm - Jim Nov 17, 09:22
    - I'm with moosec*mber. -- nm - Jim Nov 17, 09:21
  - She should have at least bothered to create a fake friend to do it. -- nm - Spawn Nov 17, 09:20 1
    - yep, she could at least show some fucking effort. -- nm - CQ Nov 17, 09:21

In other words, "Come to my Bring My Baby Gifts Party." -- nm - Spawn Nov 17, 09:16 5
- exactly. -- nm - Elf Andie Nov 17, 09:16 4
  - Did it include a list of place she is registered? - Spawn Nov 17, 09:19 3
    - bank account and routings number were printed ont he back, to make it easier just to wire your cash gifts rather than having to write a check... -- nm - znufrii Nov 17, 09:20
    - from the evite: Alicia is registered at the following locations: BabiesRUs.com, Target.com, amusetoys.com, potterybarnkids.com, rhbabyandchild.com. -- nm - Elf Andie Nov 17, 09:20 1
      - (she's actually just across the border, i have a pretty good excuse not to go.) -- nm - Elf Andie Nov 17, 09:21
maybe she doesn't have any friends -- nm - Roger More Nov 17, 09:16 5
- she has a sister! who i know better than her. make your sister throw the damn shower. -- nm - Elf Andie Nov 17, 09:17 4
  - You should get her a board game. - Spawn Nov 17, 09:23
  - even so, if the sister was the one to host and ask you, the result would be the same, wouldn't it? -- nm - Max Nov 17, 09:21 1
    - This is what seems like to me. (nm) - musubi Nov 17, 09:24
  - I'd be busy that day if I were you. That's all sorts of tacky -- nm - CQ Nov 17, 09:19
