I’ll miss that comment moderation. It made me feel like my comments were special. . . like they’d passed some kind of grueling selection process. . . I’m so disillusioned.

Stacy: I guess it’s time for us to turn off comment moderation. I enabled it because we were getting spammed with links for online casinos and pharmacies of dubious repute, but you’re not the first real commenter to miss the notice.

Fortunately, WordPress makes it easy to look at (and delete!) the latest few comments, and we haven’t seen any attacks of the level that some of the bigger (mostly Movable Type-based) blogs have reported, so it shouldn’t be too much of a disaster to go back to insta-comments for now.

Waaah? Okay, I had a comment here…

Long and short of it was that I had one wedding vendor say to me, “Wow, you’re not as finicky as other brides.”

If you’re not an incompetent child with these people, you’re a sulky cat.

But short of Liz Taylor, you don’t have to see these people eight or nine times in you life, so just blow them off. Either that, or start clawing their furniture and bringing them dead birds.

The wedding industry at large likes to lecture anyone. Whether you have 2k or 2 million to spend on the wedding, they feel the need to tell you are doing things inadequately.

I think the funniest was the cake vendor for my wedding who said, “Wow, most brides are a lot more finicky.”

So if you’re not an incompetent child, you’re a sulky cat.

But, you’re not going to call these people and invite them to dinner after you’re married so stop worrying about them. Either that or bring a spray bottle and try to cure them of their bad behavior problems.
