Random Fail: First World Problems

[vagus]

Oh I know. It's 100% bullshit. I could argue even a baby shower is pointless. Money still the best gift. Kid doesn't need endless amount of toys. And clothes only last a few weeks.

It's a gift for pushing out a baby.

What's the C-section variant called?

[Aksannyi]

A gutting gift?

[Tokitoki]

And now there are gender reveal parties? what the god damn fucking fuck is this shit?

I don't think this is really that new. I don't think people expect gifts for this one, it's more just another reason to have cake and party.

As long as that is all it is ok I guess. But fuck if you expect gifts for the 10 parties that apparently go along with getting married/having a demonspawn

A coworker had one; basically they give the envelope with the gender to a bakery and the bakery makes red velvet or blue velvet cake depending on the gender of the baby. That's what it is as far as I know. I don't know if other people have had a different experience.

Diapers being a close second since all babies know how to do is eat, sleep barf, pee and shit.

i've been to one gender reveal party and this is basically how it was except with cupcakes. No gifts or anything. the parents-to-be supplied food and drinks for everyone. Since husbands/boyfriends don't usually go to bridal showers (praise yeezus) its a fun celebratory event for all the friends. I have nothing against gender reveal parties. Don't really have anything against baby showers or bridal showers either because I get dope shit and am glad to give dope shit. Anyone my wife and I are close enough to warrant an invitation from is someone that I am genuinely excited for about their next chapter and I want them to have dope shit.

Shit I was going to get Headspace a wedding gift but his registry was a fucking abortion so I chose to ridicule him instead.

I've said this over the years on here and I'll echo it again.

You get money from me unless you are my bestie.

You get it for one thing.

First wedding.

After that you can fuck up a river. I've taken a very firm stance on it and have yet to have serious backlash.

You wanna have a kid? Fucking pay for it.

[vagus]

My aunt got mad at me because I didn't show up to the baby shower due to work. The $150 basket I sent obviously wasn't enough.

Now I have a 100 day celebration which I need to drop a gift. This is a Chinese culture thing! Gotta show face.

100 day gift? lmao. Don't get her anything and let her be more mad at you. It might be a cultural thing, but that doesn't make it any less retarded. Say you're course correcting this dumb tradition!

Pretty much this. If you're a good friend we may give some baby gifts, like a couple of onesies and some diapers.

Yeah. For close friends and immediate family.

Baby gifts consist of:

Money

[Zetanio]

I give my friends gifts for random reasons if I find something up their alley. No need to force it.

There's BG platinum.

Only stands out certain activities (Reverse curls or any exercise heavy on the hands), but also things like holding a cooking pan with 1lb of ground turkey on it w/ my left hand, but man my hand gets pretty painful when doing those few select things.

Like I literally almost dropped a pan w/ 1 lb of meat last night. Not sure if it's carpal tunnel, arthritis or something else, but it's been going on for about a year now.

Thankfully it doesn't affect the vast majority of things I do (aside from hand/wrist heavy exercises, doesn't even bother me in the gym can bench press, weighted pull up, dead lift just fine); but those few things it does affect sucks badly lol

[Roranora]

So simply holding a cast iron skillet would be way too much for you? You may need to fix your wrist/hand. :l

[NynJa]

So that "added me" list on snapchat, is that a list of people who have me added that i dont have added or people who have recently added me?

I removed my crazy co-worker last week, and i noticed today that shed on my "added me" list. So im wondering if she tried to re-add me


edit: just tried with someone at work, she definately readded me after i threatened her.
