Today, my dad came over and ordered me, a 43 year-old woman, to purchase a kitchen table. He and my sisters are embarassed that we are still using a plastic folding table. It doesn't matter to them that we have just spent over $30,000 on renovations. His cousins are coming from Italy. FML

there are so many things going on here

If you're gonna spend/care that much about your house, why would you still have a plastic table?

Oooo mail me the plastic one! I've been in my house for 4 years and don't have a dining table. I just don't really need one... but if I had one I'd buy some inflatable sex dolls dress them up, sit them at the table, and on Saturday mornings open the blinds, eat breakfast, and spend the morning yelling at them for all my neighbors to see.

What? I feel like this needs a lot of clarification. Are you living at home or he's living in yours or something? Otherwise, why does it matter that has cousins are coming? They can go to his house and not see the embarrassing table. Or if you're living in the same house he can pitch in for a table since it's his house too. But if you're 43, just stand up for yourself. You can spend your money how you wish. And he, also being a grown ass adult, can deal with making sure things are ready and to his standards for his family's visit.

That's bullshit why would a 43 year old woman even know about this app stop lying

actually there is a lot of older people on this app more than others like this you will be suprise I'm was when I first got on

I'm 45. What generation do you think even invented the Internet; yours? Grow up.

#30, 43 years old isn't even that old. I don't know why you think OP is lying because she is using FML. My cousin is 40 and enjoys this app. You going to claim she is lying too?

You do know that people of all ages use the Internet, not just middle school kids?

I'm 49 and I know there are a lot of people here even older than me. For the record, my son downloaded this app to my phone 4 years ago, knowing it's something I'd enjoy. But I'd probably have found it myself anyway. And FYI, computers weren't always the point and click type they are now. My generation was using DOS based programs and writing code in Basic and other computer languages, long before you were even born.

Seriously? I am so ashamed to be this generation sometimes.

You guys, he's joking. It's funny. Lol

If he wants a different table, make him get it himself.

Tell him that if he wants you to have one so bad he can be the one to pay for it.

My family is Italian and this kind of enmeshment is the thing I hate most about its culture. Your home is nobody's business but your own.

Just go to goodwill and get a cheapie table. Personally it shouldn't matter but you can get a decent table for like $20

The dad will probably bitch about that too

Probably wouldn't be good enough for the Italian cousins, according to her dad anyway. I doubt the cousins care.

I would hope is a 43 year old woman you respectfully told him to go **** himself

Are the renovations finished? If they are you spent way too much money to bitch about a table. If not, then who cares.
