Mildly annoyed by the passive-aggressive shock of extended families members that we, with our almost-three year old, are not spending our Easter Sunday driving for four hours to attend the family Easter dinners.
(You know who could drive four hours on the holiday if it matters this much to see us? The retired and childless family members doing the complaining.)
🤷♀️

Living in Brazil has its challenges
I apparently told the in-laws: I ate pussy. It got worse, when I said: I eat lesbians
I only knew I’d said something wrong because my wife’s face was beetroot red.

My mother-in-law is stealing from her husband and now deceiving him, too.
She simply can’t be helped or be trusted for that matter…
Was looking forward to watching #England in the #6Nations #Rugby match this afternoon with Jnr2, but we have to go visit my #inlaws instead. #SnazzaFrassaRashinFashin

dear everyone that puts on a happy fake social mask persona to interact with others, because you don't want to show the "real" you: this may fool people you don't know very well, but on a months or years long relationship time scale, it's as exhausting for them as it is for you
not to mention it'll add a layer of insincerity to every interaction, making them distrust you at a gut level. maybe this is the desired outcome! just saying

It seems that Mastodon isn't great with messing with orders of operation so i fucked up the order with the last one because the one after hadn't populated yet. This is my own learning curve I guess. All of this should also go under #Reverendswife #preachershusband #parenting #inlaws #reverendsofmastodon and my own # I'm sticking to, #ILoveMyInLawsBut

Imagine being such a materialist that you complain about family members not asking for a whole lot when it comes to gifts. Sorry if my DVD collection, one book, and Lego succulents set make you sad, MIL, but I'm still going to get a ton of joy out of them.
Best of all, I'm not fretting about where to store them in my already cramped space, which is a gift in itself.
Though I am curious how she'd react if I asked for nothing but gift cards.
Why, yes, I'd LOVE to hear all the ways the NFL has ruined the game of football over the last 50 years. Again. And again. And again... #inlaws #homofortheholidays #killmenow

@spaf is such a trooper. My mom switched from pummeling us with Christmas music on repeat to country music on repeat. 😄🤣😂😭We might have to break out the home-brewed pawpaw brandy to get through the next 24 hours. #InLaws #family #OneBigHappy #PatienceIsAVirtue #CantWinForLosing

My expressed desire for a pizza (for Second Dinner, since we ate at 3:30pm) has been met with a lament about the secularization of society in the U.S. #inlaws #homofortheholidays
It's not quite 4:30pm. We finished dinner (and had the dishwasher loaded more than 30 minutes ago). Father-in-law is yelling at the TV about "the network" because the sound on the football game is too soft.
