Official BP Family Complaint Thread

It's true (for the most part) that you can pick your friends, but not your family. My parents pissed me off so badly last night that simply bitching to the NMR about it wasn't good enough and so I give you the inaugural entry of the official BP Family Complaint Thread.

My braindead parents went to London for ten days and my mom made a big deal about telling my girls (7 and 11 and their only grandchildren) about it before they left. Had my mom not mentioned it, there probably wouldn't be an issue, but you can't tell two little girls that you're going to London (of all the cities in the world) without them thinking that you're going to bring them something back. I saw the kids on Saturday and they both were excited and hopeful that their grandparents would bring them something. Obviously, you see where this is going. They didn't bring back fcuking ANYTHING! From a city where you can't take a step without bumping into a tourist concession. It would've taken absolutely zero effort to buy a stuffed animal with a Union Jack on it or a doubledecker bus t-shirt.

Now, my issue is whether to go to a place called A Taste of Britain at lunch today and get them a few things; not to bail my parents out, but to keep my girls from feeling like they don't rate even a souvenir from their grandparents.

Thanks for indulging the rant. Thoughts? Other frustrating family issues?

Maybe they actually did buy them something but are saving it for Christmas time?

I offically have classified my Mom as a "hater". If it's not her way, she'll find something negative to say.

While I've been contemplating a move to either California (where she thinks I should go) or back to Miami (where I'd rather go), she proceeds to tell me my friends are losers in Miami. She brings up my one friend that's an MMA fighter, but chooses to leave out all the successful ones.

Then, she dislikes my haircut when she sees it, and tells me I look "ugly" with it. I tell her not to worry about it, because I like it, and other people like it. She proceeds to tell me "those disgusting people in Boston that have no style like it" . I say girls like it, she says probably the girl with the lazy eye in my office likes it (who I barley talk to), and people lie to me.

Then, I'm headed down to Miami for business on Monday, but am going in early on Friday. She says "there's no reason for you to go in early". I say yes there is, I am going to hang out with my friends and go out. She says you're going to spend a bunch of money... yet everything is paid for. Just hating.

Pretty slick way of working "I have job offers from Cali and Miami", "I have a friend who's an MMA fighter", "People like me", "I don't talk to chicks with lazy eyes", and "someone else pays for my booze" into a post bitching about the woman that made it all possible.

You ungrateful fuck. If your father were here, he'd slap some sense into you.

You ungrateful [censored]. If your father were here, he'd slap some sense into you.

No, actually he'd say "Linda, leave him alone"... haha, I bite my tounge though and don't get into it with her.
