Rolando , in Wedding pricing makes so much sense.

Here’s the alternative:

  • Justice of the Peace ceremony: $43 (including license, supply your own witnesses)
  • session at photography studio: $13-$500 (including prints and downloads)
  • BYOB party at your place that evening: $0

Basically, finding out your partner wants a big wedding is a huge go/no-go moment. Save the money for when you really need it.

LilPappyWigwam ,

Yeehaw! A thirteen dollar photoshoot!

Rolando ,

Photoshoot’s free. The $13 is for the print you get.

You mock, but my grandparents only have a couple photos of the day they were married. But they did stick together all their lives, and they did raise their kids as best they could within their means.

BastingChemina ,

There was a study a few years ago that showed that people who spend less on wedding have a lower chance of divorce.

On the other hand not going for a honeymoon increase divorce rate.

So better save money on the wedding and spend it on a honeymoon.

LilPappyWigwam ,

I didn’t realize you were referencing something from like 50-60 years ago. All in all, you make valid points… I have lived long enough to personally validate them. It was just the “thirteen to five hundred dollars” range that made me chuckle!

Kecessa ,

As my sister in law said, even for expensive weddings, if you do things properly you’ll end up making profit from the gifts you receive.

And yes, that’s fucking disgusting.

PlantDadManGuy ,

I mean you’re right, but I believe the converse is what she was getting at. Invite respectable guests and they will know the unwritten rule: bring a gift worth at least as much as your meal, drinks and party favors. It’s not necessarily bad to expect that much.

Kecessa ,

I personally think that yes it’s bad to expect that much. You’re the one who decided to organize a party for a day that’s all about you and your SO, it’s not my problem how much you decided to spend on it. Even for my best friend’s wedding I told him “You charge me something or expect me to give a gift worth X, I’m not going, it’s your decision to do something special that day, you assume it, the day I invite you to a party I won’t charge you or expect a gift.”

lightnsfw ,

I hate big weddings as much as anyone but the idea of bringing a gift isn’t to “charge” you. It’s that you want to help set up the newlyweds in their life together. The party is all about them but most of what they’re spending is on things to make sure their guests have a great time. I’m sure it happens but I’ve never been to a wedding where anyone demanded a gift as the cost of entry.

criticon ,

My wife and I were planning our wedding a year from then when I got a job offer to the US and we had to get married in a hurry to avoid some issues with the visas.

Best decision ever, we had a small party at my SIL patio, my parents got us tacos catering, a friend of my wife who has won some iPod battles was or “DJ” and we got some cheap wines at costco and told people to BYOB

We only had to rent some chairs and tables but it wasn’t very expensive

We were planning to celebrate our 1st anniversary doing a “wedding” party but we decided to use the money to travel 3 weeks to Japan instead

My mama’s got a tiny little diamond in her engagement ring. Dad offered to get her a bigger one, but she said no, let’s save that money for something more important. I believe that money got put toward a renovation of the house.

Give me a girl like mama, whose got a tiny diamond and a solid home.

SnipingNinja ,

Get an “artificial diamond”, much cheaper but basically the same thing

Or better yet, get an artificial emerald. Green is prettier anyhow.

ChaoticNeutralCzech ,

your friends

I don’t have friends. I’m a Lemming (former Redditor), after all.

elsewhere on the Fediverse

Good point.

There’s !czech but federation with Lemmy does not really work at this point.
There are several Mastodon instances like witter.cz which are reasonably alive but I prefer Reddit-style social media. I might need to compromise on this, though.
Hive and Dread have been suggested but I can’t imagine the crypro-heavy or dark web platforms attracting a meaningful crowd.

30 year old software developer from a third world country here, 8 years of job experience on my CV. My 60k/year salary from working as a contractor for US companies puts me at around the top 99th percentile of salary earners in my country. I still cannot afford to buy a house and have instead opted to live with my parents until I’ve saved up enough to move out.

This is a stupid meme. Most people alive today that lived there before its collapse wish it had not.

Furthermore its dissolution was literally illegal and undemocratic.

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

Well yea, most people prefer quality of life not going down

Nakoichi ,
@Nakoichi@hexbear.net avatar

Not just quality of life, but average life expectancy. The deliberate destruction of the Soviet Union was cause for one of the single largest drops in life expectancy in recorded history.

The collapse destruction of the Soviet Union also ushered in an era of unrestrained capitalist exploitation without a rival power to incentivize better social programs.

Literally the entire world felt the blow of this tragedy.

I’m watching a drunk (probably) girl in a fight with her bf (probably) attempting to get his attention by doing dumber and dumber things. He watches her go behind the metal temporary fence, take off her shoes and get in the water. Then she comes out, climbs around the actual security fence and sits there. He gets tired of watching and goes over to drink his beer and look at his phone (if you’re reading this, hi guy). She looks around, realises he’s not watching, and starts swimming away.

Now she’s completely out of sight and he’s just sitting there, phone in hand, staring into space like he’s given up on life. And he’s finished his beer. There’s nothing left.

Edit: ohhhh she’s skinny dipping and one of the other dudebros jumped in with his bermuda shorts on. I need popcorn.

MDKAOD ,

There’s a fun bingo game called “sloppy joes bingo” (it searches). Rooster Teeth pitched it and someone in the community made a card generator and Sloppy Joes is a bar in key west which has a youtube live stream of the road out front.

Only daily? I want hourly updates about beef stroganoff, dammit!

Thank you for subscribing to Beef Stroganoff Facts!

Did you know that beef stroganoff is named after one of the members of the influential Stroganov family? A legend attributes its invention to French chefs working for the family, but several researchers point out that the recipe is a refined version of older Russian dishes.

Thassodar ,

Unsubscribe.

superduperenigma ,

Thank you for being a valued Beef Stroganoff Facts subscriber!

Did you know that after the fall of Tsarist Russia, the recipe was popularly served in the hotels and restaurants of China before the start of World War II? Russian and Chinese immigrants, as well as US servicemen stationed in pre-Communist China, brought several variants of the dish to the United States, which may account for its popularity during the 1950s. It came to Hong Kong in the late fifties, with Russian restaurants and hotels serving the dish with rice but not sour cream.

Laser , in Didn't see it coming

Not really your fault if people fall to stereotypes no?

On the other hand, I think the majority of women doesn’t actually care that much about getting their cervix hammered during intercourse. I know it sounds crazy. And they don’t like oral sex because men’s tongues are so long either.

Ddhuud ,

True, but also, a bottom heavy woman and doggy, and you’re pretty much out.

Sharpiemarker ,

And they don’t like oral sex because men’s tongues are so long either.

Ok, the first half was accurate but there’s no way this can be true.

UrPartnerInCrime ,

Do you think that dude just sticks his tongue up the hole and wiggles it? Cause I now do.

PM_ME_FEET_PICS ,

That dude doesn’t know how to fuck.

snaptastic ,

I think they’re saying that they like it for other reasons.

Jmdatcs ,

I think he’s saying the length of the tongue isn’t the reason they enjoy oral.

In other words, deep penetration isn’t the only way, and for some not the best way, to please a woman.

spauldo ,

Like all things relating to people, it varies.

Some women actually prefer smaller penises. A friend of mine was that way - her ex husband was too big for her and sex hurt. Her next husband was smaller and she discovered that sex could be enjoyable for her, too.

Some like 'em big. And some don’t care.

Except in extreme cases, it’s generally not a deal breaker and usually not the most important factor for enjoyment. My girlfriend likes 'em big but her ex husband was well below average. He had skills, though, so she had no complaints (in regards to the sex, anyway).

As far as oral sex goes, you’ve been misinformed. Lots of women like to receive oral sex.

Laser ,

As far as oral sex goes, you’ve been misinformed. Lots of women like to receive oral sex.

Sorry for the ambiguous wording. I meant what others wrote: The reason women like oral sex is not because men possess such big tongues.

Sharpiemarker ,

Thanks for the clarification. That makes more sense lol.

thySatannic ,

Ahhhw :/, I was just hoping to pleasure some women with my 8 inch tongue…
