Today, my family savagely mocked me to the point of tears, all for using "big", "fancy" words like "accommodations" and "hospitality". FML

look at all the big fancy accomodations that you require in order to function. the hospitality is unfathomable.

That totally sucks OP. I want to give you a giant, virtual, non-creepy hug.

People make fun of what they can't understand and what they are jealous of. People also bully for the same reason, so I'm willing to bet they don't understand and are jealous. I'm sorry your family are bullying assholes.

Just saying, they may not have been as savagely mocking you as you thought. I know my boyfriend's family likes to make fun of people that they like because that's how they joke with each other. Maybe try being less sensitive to it?

I'm pretty sure someone would know when their own family was mocking or just joking around. It's not like they're strangers.

I get what you mean. My family is the same way. We are very playful, and sometimes outsiders don't understand it the same way.

To the point of tears. Once you realize it's not making them laugh, and especially if it seems you're hurting or upsetting them, you should stop, apologize, and let them know you were joking.

Just be less sensitive? Wow! Who would have thought

some people just dont get that. I'm not teling them to get over it only how to cope with a family like that.

Really? Y'all are in Texas and you're gettin made fun of for using 'hospitality'?! Whatever happened to Southern Hospitality???

Apparently it got too big in Texas and the state itself didn't want any competition. #sabotage

People kept showing up to hospitals asking about it, so they had to change it.

Hmm ops family must be redneck liberals. *looks at location Yep

It's ok guys i found it (the stupidest comment

Maybe you should show them some hospitality by accommodating them with some pranks.

I just imagine OP's family as the family in The Lorax movie.

Take comfort in the fact that your IQ is probably higher than all of theirs combined :)

Texas is nothing like the rest of the south.

You're right, it's oh so much worse.

I'm from Texas, and can confirm that this is true.
