I'll have to remember that. It still astounds me that so many people don't seem capable of understanding how insulting the whole thing is.
A friend forwarded a great story to me once - by a woman frustrated with the older ladies in her family prodding her at every wedding, cackling 'you're next!'.
She wrote: "They stopped after I started doing the same thing to them at funerals".
hehehe
I like that.
I thought it was kind of funny a few months ago ... Grandmother and my aunt were both up here and grandmother was telling us about this game they had played at one of her friends surprise parties where you have to come up with one word that describes the person using each letter of her first name "But I just don't know what you could use for Norma (grandmother's name).. how many descriptive words start with "N" or "M"?"
I should one look at my mom and could tell we were both thinking the same thing.
