Pitching a Fit,
Instead of a Tent.


Anyone who knows me, knows that I don't believe in big, stress-inducing weddings.
Yeah, I know...what a chicky chick.
So, when I read this article about a couple in New Zealand who sent back their tent because they didn't like it, and received an insulting e-mail from the company who provided it...

I laughed, and laughed.

Obviously, not only the bride is prone to bad behaviour when there's a wedding planned.

"The firm's office manager, Katrina Jorgensen, had written: 'Your wedding sounded cheap, nasty and tacky anyway, so we only ever considered you time wasters. Our marquees are for upper class clients which unfortunately you are not. Why don't you stay within your class levels and buy something from Payless Plastics instead.'"

Meow!

A family owned company.... the e-mail to the couple from the wife of the owner.
She's been fired.
By her husband.

How'd you like to hang at their house for the next little while?
The air would be a little thick, no?
