Check mate and nailed in one!
My husband’s family always had the Chicken Dance at weddings. Which is probably why we had a cocktail party reception after City Hall.
Nobody in my family EVER did that at a wedding reception, nor the Hokey Pokey either. And I've NEVER been to a wedding reception that that was done. But I have heard about weddings where it is usually thrown in.
What I find really HORRID and thoughtless, about this train-wreck of a wedding reception, is that NO chairs/no seating, is apparently going to be available, which I can't believe that the Queen has okayed. Many attendees are OLD and Kate just had a baby. I bet there are going to be others who will not be happy about standing around for 2 1/2 hours and being told to "mingle"!
Italian-American families do the Chicken Dance. Not every wedding is Grace Kelly and the Prince of Monaco, you know, lol.
I haven’t been keeping up on the wedding details. I’m so bored with these two I could scream. I wish they’d just break up NOW.
I don't try to "keep up", but it's all over the Daily Mail and other Brit papers and it's hard to miss. :-(
I wish that STUPID Harry had NEVER even met this low class, grasping, greedy, manipulative PHONY! But then, no worthy girl, in her right mind, would probably have him.
Yep.
How about a Viennese Table?
I don’t like those nor am I a big fan of weddings going into the wee hours of the A.M. and being served small hamburgers, hot dogs, bags of popcorn and and/or scrambled eggs. It’s an idiotic idea !
Well, horses for courses, I guess. I enjoy seeing how people celebrate. I just don’t like it when they demand a lot of money (only to get divorced two years later) and then push cake into each other’s faces. Uck-o!
I'm a traditionalist, but refused the whole FEED EACH OTHER THE CAKE bit, at our wedding. No, neither of us would have done the smash cake thing...I just didn't want to do the feed thing.
Oh...and NO garter toss either!
I wore a blue garter, I didn’t throw it. I also didn’t feed the cake. Messes up the lipstick which is very important.
I’m over on another thread handing somebody their head.
didn't know you were a stand up comic. you're racking up those mortal sins tonight I see.
Ok, trolling is disallowed. That is a mortal sin at FR and I’m now going to hit abuse.
Fail to see how this is trolling. If it is you are doing the same.
You posted to me (whether you admit it or not) because you were all over another thread last night doing your usual ping thing. Don’t bring the argument here and interrupt this thread as well.
So what....I posted to you?
It is called an open forum.
You were the one who said you were handing someone their head on another thread. I’m over on another thread handing somebody their head.
You seem to like to dish it out but don't like anyone to give you any push back.
I'm only following your suggestion on your homepage.
NOTE: If you have something negative to say to me, please say it publicly and not on a private message. I only talk to my friends on my private messages here.
Seems you don't want to live up to the advice you give on your homepage.
Perhaps the open forums are not suited for you.
I can give as well as take it. But two things I don’t like: your phony ping list which is not used to point people in the direction of an interesting topic as is the norm here. It is used to gang up on Catholics who don’t adhere to your biblically-correct point of view and run them off the thread. And because an individual on this ping list does not have the intellectual capacity nor the vocabulary to argue, he feels he must have the gang behind him when someone disagrees or puts him in his place. Last night’s thread was NOT in the religious forum but you guys turned it into the usual anti-Catholic nonsense.
And trolling. Which you are doing right now. This is about the royal wedding. It is not about me. It is not about you. Let’s get back to the subject before I have to hit abuse again.
Apparently you can't.

I don't have a ping list.

Ganging up on Roman Catholics?? Again, perhaps the open forums are not for you.

And once again proving my observation about some, but not all, Roman Catholics.

Then don't be bragging, incorrectly I might add, about how you were doing something on another thread on this thread.
And you might want to update your home page.
Stop lying about the ping list - I didn’t say you had it; I inferred that you were on it. Which you are. And you guys use it to abuse it and then lie about it.
But two things I don’t like: your phony ping list...
Perhaps you didn't mean your to mean my personal list or perhaps you meant your in the collective sense. I read it to mean my personal ping list.
In either case I don't maintain a ping list and I am not on a ping list, at least that I am aware of, for these kind of discussions.
