at least her mommy loves her, at least it's fun to mock, not racism wank! yay, otf_wank's thoughts on weddings

I have to admit, I don't even know how to sum this up.

Bride - or should I say, former Bride - reveals her theory that Brides are the Center of the Universe

After opening with her credentials to be advising Bridesmaids, she says:

And yes, my dear ladies, being in a bridal party is a job, and I am going to tell you what to do, thus this letter. I am advocate for the Bride in your life.

And then she goes on. And on. And on. With numbering, for easy reference. And then more numbering.

The comments are a fascinating mix of "OMG! you are so right!!!" and "OMG! You are so CRAZY".

The whole thing makes me glad I eloped.

	That's in her Guide to Excruciatingly Correct Behavior, and it's my most favorite Miss Manners response EVER. (Closely followed by her reply to the guy who wrote in about female business associates who would insist on picking up the tab at lunch. "What's she trying to do," he asked, "prove that she's my equal?" The response: "Yes.") (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	My personal favourite Miss Manners response was to a reader asking what s/he should say when being introduced to a gay couple. Answer: "'How do you do.' 'How do you do.'" Miss Manners is subtly snarky LOVE! (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Personally, I've always loved "How does one walk in high-heeled shoes?" "Left, right, left, right, left, right." Oooh, I wonder if there's an RSS feed.... (Reply to this)(Parent)
