Tough Talk,
I am having a small family reunion for those relations especially close to me as we haven’t been together since the recent health scare. I’m trying to make everyone happy and comfortable, but I’m getting non-stop requests for this type of food, or nothing with gluten and this person is lactose intolerant. It’s going on and on and on (like imported toilet paper). I want to have a great reunion, but they are making demands that are going way too far. What should I do TT? (Capon, Pennsylvania)
Capon,
You tell all your relatives that if they are too special and beautiful, they need to bring their own foods, toiletries and other items for posers. It sounds like all these people are spoiled brats and you should remember the old say, “You can pick your friends, but not your family.” You may want to cut these squids loose. Or even better, when they get to town, send them to a homeless shelter, a truckers’ depot or the worst fleabag motel in the area with crappy toiletries found in dumpsters.
