The best people? You sure about that? F*ck up. I keep seeing it everywhere.....even for normal stuff "great night out with the BEST people" really? Mind you, maybe I should stop being such a drunken grumpy c*nt and I might get invited to these events with the "best people". Those likes aren't gonna generate themselves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weddings back before camera phones and such were much better, a bunch of drunk laddies and lassies and no one recording… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are the sort of people that say the have been out for the BEST meal ever, and then you see they have been to TGI or Bella Italia, Chiquito or All Bar One. You can have a decent meal at these places, but ain't having the best meal ever, these formulaic weddings are the same as a chain restaurant event. You are right to judge them. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its the wording of the phrase that annoys me so much. Its folk who are in their 40's going "i have the best friends" and trying to convince folk they are better than everyone else...all that "living your best life" sh*te. Its social media so I know someone will say "what do you expect?" obviously its always been about people posting fun stuff of what they are upto...I've no problem with that(as I'm ultimately not interested) or with folk saying "i was at a wedding at the weekend, i had a nice time, heres some pics". But theres something about that phrase "I had the Best Wedding with the Best people" that winds me up. Even adding the word 'my' would be acceptable but otherwise it just sounds c*ntish. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empty It Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 Weddings are another thing social media has fucked, weddings used to be about people enjoying themselves now its about trying to compete to have the best wedding with the most money spent on it. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newbornbairn Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 I've got an Indian mate. It's not uncommon for Indian weddings to cost £250k and last 3 days, apparently. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be a Muslim wedding, at a Hindu or Sikh Wedding when you ask for a drink, you get a full bottle plonked in front of you. They are mad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coprolite Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 My mate's wedding was "dry" because of the bride and her family's religion. It just takes a small amount of ingenuity and subterfuge to work around this sort of lunacy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 We're off to one in August. The lad is from Sri Lanka and she's French but it's some mad all day thing with lots of mental ceremony type shite. Apparently will only be a bit of booze in the evening and the party won't be long because they're both having to start preparing at 6am. Each to their own but some of the mentalist stuff (not entirely sure which religion it's under, possibly Hindu) but her mum can't give her away because she's divorced. And he's got to bathe in milk. And the guests have to kind of make do from 10am to about 5pm with no food, I'll be sneaking out for curry wurst 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
