What say you, Emily Post?

December 1st, 2009 · 140 comments

As an early holiday gift to you, I present the current leading candidate in the race for “douchecanoe of the year”…

Shoshana will be accepting wedding gifts from those 'friends' who didn't give us anything the first time round. Don't say you're giving us the gift of friendship because that is so lame. Honestly. Get on our gift registry and get us something!! Or some cash would be nice :)

UPDATE: Our anonymous tipster passes along this follow-up status update, adding, “The best part about this situation is that, by posting her latest status update, she just encouraged more people to come see how rude and greedy she is!”

    But yeah…they’re douchecanoes. I’d not give them anything.

    Makes you wonder just what this selfish brat thinks a wedding is.

    Normal adult: “My wedding: celebrating the start of my marriage and the life my spouse and I will have together.”

    Shoshanna: “My wedding: I’m the queen, you MUST bow down to me and pay tribute selected from the overpriced luxury clutter I registered for and I don’t care if you can pay your bills this month. You OWE me the material goods of my choosing for the privilege of knowing me.”

      It’s ok, she can get all the stuff she wanted and didn’t get on her second marriage, and the third, and the fourth. I think she’ll have a long history of divorce and remarriage after not getting what she wants out of life and walking all over people with her big ass attitude. God forbid she has a kid, can you imagine what she’ll post to everyone who threw her a surprise baby shower?

    Is it proper to ask for wedding gifts twice if you didn’t get something the first time? Why didn’t someone tell me this when I got married? I completely missed out on that concept, (being sensitive enough to not ask for shit I don’t need.)

    Someone set up one of those damn money trees at our wedding without asking. It looked like Charlie Brown’s Christmas tree it was so sparse. But hey, we were smart enough to take a hint.

    First, sorry about the name. I’m sure it explains a lot about your personality issues. Parents can be so cruel.

    Second, I’d be happy to send you a present, but here’s the catch, I want it back. See, I know there is no guy on this earth who is going to stay with your greedy and shrill ass more than a few months so I’d like you to return it when he walks out? ‘K?

    Dear Shoshana,

    It appears that you are not content with the return on capital invested on your first venture – congratulations on securing yourself a second shot at it though.

    To maximise profits this time round you can save yourself on overheads by reducing the number you’re catering for. Since there is not enough to gain from my ‘gift of friendship’, I will no longer be affording you this hence forth.

    I hope you will have piece of mind this time round to enjoy a wedding. It would appear that a wedding to you is more about what personal gain than the groom, or your friends.

    Wishing you a profitable wedding, and a fortunate divorce,

    She should be happy she gets any gifts. A friend of mine’s grandmother was so cheap, she gave her grandson and his bride an alluminum roasting pan for a wedding gift.

    No, she wasn’t senile.

    I’d have a hard time resisting the urge to tell shoshana”I was waiting for the next one, knowing you and your ‘sunny and selfless’ personality. You know what they say, third time’s a charm!”

      Maybe Grandma is on a very limited income, and can’t afford any more. They should be happy they get any gifts.

      Plus, she knows that aluminium (yes we spell it differently, and pronounce it differently) can cause dementia (Mark, you don’t have to disprove this) – really, she’s doing them a favour. You really don’t want to look after Gran once her Alzheimer’s is fully blown. Then again, they’ll hopefully sell it at a garage sale before their own faculties start to slip.

    The tackiness of Shoshana’s request left me literally breathless! As a honest-to-goodness Southern debutante (OK, it was once upon a time and I was snarky and subversive even then), I am absolutely mortified that she is not mortified by her behavior! Who lives like this and thinks it’s OK? Great yikes!

    Oh, and I confess, IMMEDIATELY after reading her request, I wanted to call someone who knows her and gossip about her and how tacky she is.

    Is that wrong?

    If only facebook had been around when I got married, I could have guilted so many people in to getting me gifts.

    Really the lack of gifts didn’t bother me all that much, it was only the people who couldn’t be bothered buying a card or even saying congratulations that bugged me. What kind of loser goes to a wedding and just sits around getting drunk without even saying hi to the happy couple?

    Just wanna note that “cuntkayak” is another winner version of “douchecanoe.” There’s another term involving the word “schooner” that an acquaintance of mine created last month, but I’ve yet to remember it. I won’t take credit for the creation of “cuntkayak,” but I will definitely take credit for the inspiration for its creation. Will try to recall (or find out) the “schooner” term in the meantime.

    That is AWESOME!

    My closest experience on this front was I got a wedding invite with a note that the couple “graciously prefers monetary gifts.” We went to the wedding and brought them a gift (not of the monetary variety because – whatever!) and recently got the thank you note. It was pre-printed – except not exactly… a typed note was cut out (badly) and pasted inside their stationary. It read – we’re sorry you couldn’t make it to the reception, but thank you for your generous gift. The killer, here – we WERE at the reception. We congratulated them, we danced – so much so that the DJ even dedicated a song to my husband (well, it was play that funky music, white boy, but still!).

    I suffered through these comments and noted that nobody pointed out how terribly passive aggressive it is to post her facebook status on a website in the first place. Shoshana is a greedy bitch , but I find it ironic that the response to an aggressive-aggressive action is a passive-aggressive action.

    By the way YOU SUCK to the people who post 10 comments on EVERY post, mostly just talking to each other. You know who you are

      I agree whole heartedly BRANE. Internet decorum people! everyone should only post ONCE, posting more than once suggests that you have more than one thought or opinion on the subject.

      and obviously addressing comments to other posters is just rude.

    I’m sorry, but it doesn’t matter if you know her or not, if there’s some magical situation or not – no one should ever ask for gifts for a wedding like she did, ever. If you are going to publicly post something as dumb as that on the internet, then you have to be aware that it may end up being the joke of the day somewhere else.

    If you don’t want it posted on the front page of the Tribune, don’t put it on the internet (or in an email)…little rule of thumb ;)
