Many a friendship has been damaged by a bridezilla, and this one is no exception.

Cruise ships: floating palaces packed with tourists and plague that light up the oceans and terrorize whatever small port they happen to land in. You'd have to consider yourself mighty important indeed to think that one of these floating fortresses would forestall its scheduled course in order to accommodate your unfortunately entitled person... Sure, let's leave 3999 people waiting while the 4000th takes their time making your way back to the dock according to their own time. Sure, it's a toug…

Nobody knows how to ruin a wedding celebration quite like a Monster-in-law.

Baby names are a tricky subject, especially when you factor in familial traditions that you might be expected to uphold, and limitations, judgment, and grievances that might be placed by the people around on the name you finally settle on. Of course, especially these days, many people want their baby's name to be unique. Yet somehow these people all end up naming their kid some variation of the same thing, not realizing it until their kid is one of dozens of “Theo”s in their class when they sta…

In the pursuit of money, some people will stoop to embarrassing low points. Being low on money is a terrifying feeling, and if you have nowhere to turn, it's all that's on your mind. Still, there's a time and place to ask for money if you have to. It's a risky question, because friendships and relationships can easily fall apart over unrepaid loans. This person chose a very silly and utterly tasteless time to ask for money: right after a couple's wedding. That's a ridiculous time to ask for mon…

A gift is given willingly—usually without having an expectation placed upon it. Sure, when you're a kid, you might have gotten away with giving Mom and Dad some direction as to what to get you so that you didn't end up with something that wasn't worth anyone's money or time. For instance, if you asked your parents for just a generic “Gameboy game,” you'd wind up with some blockbuster movie cash grab that was almost unplayable and made by some third-party developer instead of the Pokemon game yo…

This couple wanted to send out 15 rules for their wedding. It's not a bad idea in theory, but the tone of the list, and some of the actual rules themselves, got people on the r/weddingshaming subreddit talking. There are a lot of good rules for your wedding, and most don't need to be spelled out for guests. For example, there's one rule which warns guests not to bring outside drinks… who does that? Rule #2 instructs guests not to “get in the photographer's way.” Who hurt this couple enough that…

Not every wedding is a dream come true. In fact, rarely can events that simultaneously cause so much stress and anxiety result in a blissful moment. At the end of the day, much of the reasoning behind this is our own fault. Culturally, we put way too much emphasis on the need to have the perfect time at your wedding while making both parties equally happy. It's an impossible task, so why do we keep doing this to ourselves? These folks understand all too well that weddings are just as likely to…

No couple wants to have the wedding that people remember as “the one with the terrible food.”

Maybe you can't recall the best wedding you've ever been to, but the worst one probably comes to mind instantly. Every couple wants their wedding to be memorable in the right way. They want guests to gush over the decorations, talk about how delicious the food is, and dance late in the night until their feet are sore. It's supposed to be fun… but a lot of weddings end up being so much work that the guests hardly get to enjoy themselves. A common factor seems to be the brides and grooms who plan…

Plan your wedding just two weeks ahead of time? What could go wrong? Well, just about everything, as this couple learned. It's understandable why a couple would want to avoid the pressures of planning a wedding . It can take years to put together a guest list, snag a venue, hire a catering company and a DJ… the list goes on and on. That's why it's fairly common for people to get engaged as a sign of their commitment to each other, and then take a few months or years to plan out their special da…

Nothing is worse than someone who thinks they are the exception to every rule—especially when that person is your sibling. And, if you think you are the exception to a rule when you haven't been told explicitly such... You probably aren't. It's important here to take a look in the mirror and realize that each and every one of us does this to an extent. It should come as no surprise that a lot of these involve driving. “Speed limits? But I'm a good driver; I can drive 5 or 10 over safely!” or “I…

Working your life away for a company that doesn't value you is enough to make any employee walk away. And good for them! There are so many jobs in the world. At some of them, you might be valued for what you bring to the table. This employee was working their “most challenging job” ever as an assistant general manager. While working at an event venue, they took on a role with long hours, and often worked 50-60 hours every week. But since the OP, u/tokyoflex, enjoyed the work and liked their bos…

Anytime a wedding includes a blending of cultures, there are bound to be feathers that get rustled the wrong way. We all would hope that our family members could be cool enough to just back off and not over-step in the wedding planning, but we all know how family matters go– someone's going to take things too far.

Weddings bring out the worst in people

Sisterly loyalties only go so far, and when one woman's sister, the bride, thought she'd play god with her own sibling's relationship, things backfired. Frankly, weddings bring out the cringe in all of us. Whether you're a sorry sap that cries during the vows (guilty as charged), the distant aunt who reminds the bride that they used to change their diapers, or you're the guest that drinks too much at the open bar, there's some social mixing that brings out the worst in everyone.
