Ice bowl 67 Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 (edited) Anyone have any relatives that you don't get along with? Anyone like one side of the family a lot better than the other side? Anyone ever have relatives stay at your homes or you stayed at their place and it was a disaster? Lets hear some family stories?

Ice bowl 67 Posted May 30, 2018 Author Share Posted May 30, 2018 Oh crap! I thought I was in Off the wall already and apparently I was off the wall on my post. How do I move it now? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I defintely have relatives I prefer not to associate with. At the same time I don't wish them bad will or totally cut them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice bowl 67 Posted May 30, 2018 Author Share Posted May 30, 2018 I started a new topic in the actual Off the wall section. You guys can tell me some classic family stories in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fadingpain Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Maybe we should just keep this thread in the TSW section! At this time of year, there isn't a hell of a lot of football related stuff to talk about. This has to be more entertaining than the seven threads started this week about how we don't have any WRs.

Captain_Quint Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 But before you delete, make sure you PM everyone to let them know the thread moved. My fear is that they won't realize its been moved and they'll miss out on some good stories! LOL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Augie Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 This could be merged. What do we pay the Mods $200k/month for? I think I read (ok, and maybe wrote) that’s what they get for their extraordinary work here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone at our family reunion got up in arms cause we all chipped in and bought food and had a huge meal. My Aunt and Uncle were the only ones that didn't show up and nobody knew where they were. Well they finally showed up a half hour later and they brought their own Steaks and just started cooking them for themselves on the grill then they started helping themselves to all the food everyone else bought that they didn't even buy. They ate and went back to their room. Everyone else in the family was fuming. My Aunt and Uncle didn't want to be there in the first place so we think they did that on purpose so it would make everyone angry enough so we didn't want them around. Sure enough the next morning everyone else was nice enough to invite them to breakfast cause nobody heard from them. They said No and hung up on us and they were already north of Green Bay heading back home. They all said we don't want Uncle Bill to come to another family gathering again lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK, the bringing of the steak thing hit a chord. Long story short....my “brother in law once removed” and his wife joined us and a group for dinner one night at our home. I had gone to a special butcher shop for enough beef tenderloin to pay your average car payment. They show up at the front door and have their own steaks. “We just want to do strictly organic beef”. An hour or so later, out by the grill, I’m asked “which one’s are ours?” I have no friggin’ idea! “Those two” I say pointing in the general direction of the grill. I’m not a fan of pompous people.

Buffalo Barbarian Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 I don't spend time with any liberal members, as it's just a waste of both our times. my brother in law is staying with me (again!) He and his wife are good house guests but it's th a breathing, in and out, that is getting old my wife (her brother) says this the last time.

row_33 Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 A friend’s mother-in-law instructed the friend’s 5 year old daughter to: “tell Mommy she is no longer pretty after 3 children and should stop using her looks to get her way” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Quint Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 (edited) Good ones so far. I have another beef one. Well before the whole wheat allergy/gluten free thing was popular, a cousin of mine did a big standing rib roast for a family dinner. He did it in one of those cooking bags for turkeys and roasts and the directions say to throw in a spoonful of flour so the bag doesn't stick. Long story short, he ended up in the hospital for dehydration after a rough 2 days. Everyone else enjoyed the roast. Turns out he had a wheat allergy, and celiac. Lived with it his whole life without knowing. Everyone just thought he had a weak stomach up until that point.

Are you related to a QB named Aaron Rodgers? Sounds like someone in his family would do. I think he even plays in Green Bay! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
