Transcripts
Speaker A:
It's haystack.
Speaker A:
And a bride to be allegedly asked her lifelong best friend to step down as a bridesmaid because the fiance thought she was too attractive.
Speaker A:
First of all, what a wild phone call.
Speaker A:
Hey, I have some difficult news.
Speaker A:
You're being removed from the wedding party.
Speaker A:
Oh, no.
Speaker A:
Did I do something wrong?
Speaker A:
Oh, no, you're just.
Speaker A:
You're doing a little too well.
Speaker A:
I mean, can you imagine getting fired from a volunteer position for excessive attractiveness?
Speaker A:
Most people get kicked out of weddings for starting drama, showing up late, getting too drunk, trying to fight a dj.
Speaker A:
This woman got kicked out because she accidentally rolled a natural 20 in the genetics department.
Speaker A:
And if you know what that means, you almost certainly did not roll a nat20 in the genetics department.
Speaker A:
The explanation is amazing.
Speaker A:
We're worried you'll draw attention away from the bride in the photos.
Speaker A:
What?
Speaker A:
Have you ever seen wedding photos?
Speaker A:
Nobody's looking at the bridesmaid.
Speaker A:
A wedding album is 400 pictures of the bride standing slightly different.
Speaker A:
Here's the bride holding flowers.
Speaker A:
Here's the bride not holding flowers.
Speaker A:
Here's the bride looking left.
Speaker A:
Here's the bride looking right.
Speaker A:
Here's the bride pretending she didn't just spend the gross domestic product of a small nation on centerpieces.
Speaker A:
I mean, bridesmaids are usually just standing there thinking, I paid $300 for this dress, and I'm never wearing it again.
Speaker A:
And they did this, like, six weeks before the wedding.
Speaker A:
That's.
Speaker A:
That's kind of late.
Speaker A:
I mean, at that point, you've bought the dress, you've made plans, you've spent the money.
Speaker A:
And then the bride has the nerve to say, I still want you to come as a guest.
Speaker A:
That's kind of a tough sell.
Speaker A:
You can't be in the wedding party, but we'd love you to sit in the audience and watch.
Speaker A:
Basically, she's saying, you're too attractive for the stage, but not for row seven.
Speaker A:
What in the world?
Speaker A:
And then, of course, the mutual friends split into camps.
Speaker A:
Of course they do.
Speaker A:
Because every wedding eventually becomes some geopolitical conflict.
Speaker A:
Nobody just goes to a wedding anymore.
Speaker A:
You get the text messages.
Speaker A:
So where do you stand on the bridesmaid situation?
Speaker A:
Man, I don't know.
Speaker A:
and dance badly to songs from:
Speaker A:
I didn't really.
Speaker A:
Only it's fascinating to me, though, that it's allegedly the fiance that's concerned.
Speaker A:
Not the bride, her fiance.
Speaker A:
Sir, this is a dangerous thing to say, because now every future disagreement is gonna start with, why didn't you take out the trash.
Speaker A:
Uh, forgot.
Speaker A:
Oh, that's interesting.
Speaker A:
You had enough attention available to evaluate all the bridesmaids.
Speaker A:
Yeah, good luck with that, buddy.
Speaker A:
And this is sad, too, because you would think if a friendship survives 10 years, high school, relationships, life changes, all the ups and downs, you would think it would survive a wedding.
Speaker A:
Or wedding photos.
Speaker A:
It's amazing that it's wedding photos that finally break their friendship.
Speaker A:
Not money, not politics, not borrowing clothes and never returning them.
Speaker A:
And in the end, everyone loses.
Speaker A:
The bride loses a best friend, the friend loses her chance to be a bridesmaid.
Speaker A:
The guests, most importantly, lose access to the real story, because every person at the wedding wants to know the explanation.
Speaker A:
Why isn't Sarah's best friend in the bridal party?
Speaker A:
Well, apparently she was too attractive.
Speaker A:
And at that point, every single guest would immediately turn around and try to figure out who it is they're talking about.
Speaker A:
So how exactly did that plan to avoid attention work out for you kids?
