Goddamn, gently caress those jerks. I'd have been tempted to reverse over them first. [post removed for posting violence] [thread locked]

AITA for wearing jeans and a top at my sister's wedding?quote:I (19f) have a more masculine style. I'm a straight cis woman btw so before anyone brings up my sexuality or gender let's get this out of the way. I simply dress more masculine and casual. I never liked doing my hair or my makeup and I was never into that feminine stuff.

Ready for some purestrain  ?AITA for telling my friend the cashier is only nice to him because it’s her job? quote:So there’s a new cashier at a local grocery store, and she’s admittedly good looking and nice. I (m23) was shopping there with my (m24) friend a while ago and ever since then he’s been ecstatic about going there. He’s obviously into her, and he’s going on and on about how she’s into him too.

Even slacks and a blouse! Anything would have been better than jeans and a top "that's not casual but not formal either." Your least-cheeto-stained garfield shirt isn't gonna cut the mustard!

Verdict for trailer assholes: on their next mud run the mud puddles are replaced with acid vats Also the bride would not be wrong to sever from jeans sister. "Just don't dress like a slob" is a pretty drat lenient dress code but she disrespected it anyway.

I was ready for a "my sister said I had to wear a dress" and the jeans to be a retaliation for that but no, she just refuses to dress remotely formally.

Yeah I thought this was gonna be "I wanted to wear a tux, but she said I had to wear a dress," not "I showed up looking so lovely they wouldn't even let me in the venue."

"More masculine style" and "suits don't fit my style" are so wildly contradictory I cannot even understand why they bothered to invite her. Seems like she thought that just not wearing an unwashed hoody is somehow classy dress appropriate.

I was also a little confused by this part of the OP quote:At first I was denied entrance at the venue because the venue is black tie only but my sister tried to convince the owner to let this go this once because I'm her sister. Was it actually black tie? Is she just confusing "fancy dress" with black tie?

I think "black tie" is pretty often used informally to just mean "suit or a nice dress, anything semi-formal really;" nobody will actually bounce you for wearing less than a tuxedo or a ballroom gown at most events labeled as black tie.

Yeah, she thinks "black tie only" means "expected to wear a tie."

She probably has not had many occasions to dress expensively and showy/attractive as possible and I know myself at 19, anything outside of what I had done before unless it was baby steps I would be anxious as gently caress. Maybe her fight or flight response is that she has doubled down over what her "style" is to the point of causing more drama than if she had risked the judgment of her taste in a nice suit pants, blouse and accessories. E) although saying that, if had been 19 old me, I would have likely chucked a sad and found some reasons that I could not attend if that much pressure was put on to push ourselves out there.

"Addict who hangs out at your house a lot" is an easy category of person to dislike. My guess would be he's seen this guy do some " I never want this person interacting with my child" level stuff and is chickening out about saying so.

If you never need to dress up anyways and money is tight at 19yo why should she have to splurge on a new outfit Not going would have been better but that probably would have led to drama anyways so it's whatevs. After all the wedding insanity posted itt someone coming in business casual is a non-issue

Evil Willow posted:AITA for “forcing” my husband to miss his daughters 18th birthday party More importantly, who has a two week long 18th birthday and wants their parents to be there for all of it? My guess, daughter was trying to set up some kind of parent-trap-style scheme to get mom and dad to “fall in love again” and the birthday is mostly a ruse to keep mom and dad together for two weeks.

There’s no mention of money being tight or, as suggested somewhere else, big anxiety feelings. It’s a 19 year old being a rebellious kid and not wanting to conform to anything that isn’t them, even for a day. She’ll regret doing it in 2 maybe 5 years when her stupid brain matures and isn’t so stupid anymore.

I don't understand how someone can show up to a wedding, nevertheless their sister's wedding, and not only being the most under-dressed person there but being so profoundly under-dressed that the venue tried to refuse you entry, and not feel like a big sack of poo poo. I went to my wife's cousin's wedding (a summery wedding!) wearing slacks and a guayabera and a blazer and I felt like an rear end in a top hat because I was under-dressed relative to most of the bride's side. Half the groom's side were wearing their nice hoodies. edit I guess the real reason is because I have self esteem issues among a lot of other things and this lady is the opposite

Full disclosure: my friend is getting married and he expects us to buy black suits for it. I haven't worn a suit in years and I don't plan on wearing one after this, I'm a carpenter so I have zero need for interviews or whatever. So this strikes close to home for me  that 19 year old isn't "right" and the pragmatic thing to do would be to just suck it up for a day but really in the grand scheme wearing business casual to a wedding is insignificant. Certainly not close to ruining it or whatever, and The sister is more of an AH for holding a grudge over it.

You're probably going to have other weddings and probably a few funerals to go to over the next decade or so, a simple suit is a good thing to have.
