Bride-to-Be Drops Bridesmaid from Wedding Party After She Says She Wants to Dye Her Hair Pink to Match Her Dress
"I just dropped her ... I'm glad it's a closed chapter," a Reddit user wrote after saying she'd been "considering" asking her friend to step down before the hair suggestion A bride-to-be was not impressed when one of her bridesmaids said she was going to dye her hair pink to match her dress to be "hilarious." In a recent post on Reddit's "Bridezillas" forum, a woman explained how she was considering dropping the friend in question from her wedding party after she'd said she wanted to switch up her look ahead of the bride's special day. "One of my bridesmaids (who I'm already considering asking to step down) has just told me she's temporarily dying her hair pink 'to match the dress!'" the poster initially wrote. "And I'm about to lose it." She added that her friend had "been kind of on a spiral of 'branching out,'" stating that this was "the latest new thing" she was "apparently set on." The Reddit user continued, "To be clear, she's never done an unnatural color (nothing more than blonder or brown or occasionally a red) and this is all very sudden." She insisted she wouldn't normally ask somebody to change the way they looked for her nuptials, but said that this was different. "I typically wouldn't tell someone to change their appearance for my wedding because it's so so so rude but I feel like this is a step past the norm and I'm at a loss," the poster said, adding, "I feel like this is the latest 'pick me' moment in a long string of them." She questioned whether she would be the "bridezilla" for asking her friend not to dye her hair "an unnatural color for the wedding, knowing that this is something she's never once done before?" The woman later edited the post to insist that she wasn't asking her "to change her current style," just "the grand plan she had for her wedding hair that's explicitly FOR the wedding, to be 'hilarious.'" She eventually wrote that she'd bit the bullet and dropped her friend from the wedding party, writing, "I just dropped her. She lost her s---. I'm glad it's a closed chapter." In the comments section, the post got mixed reactions. After the poster responded to one of the reactions with grabs of the text exchange, a commenter insisted, "This type of conversation is NOT for a text message. It's too late but if you do care about her, asking her out for coffee to talk through this might be a better way. It's so easy to misunderstand intent, get angry over text, and escalate. That's what happened here." Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. Another person had previously suggested, "If you're considering asking her to step down just [do] it. You'll be happier. The pink hair it seems will become something else and that becomes something else and you're clearly over [it]. I don't blame you. I'd be over it [too] from the sound of it." "The key point is that she is dyeing her hair FOR the wedding (to match the dress), which gives you the opening to say 'I appreciate the thought but honestly I'd rather you don't,'" a different commenter had pointed out, while one insisted, "You did the right thing. Dyeing your hair FOR the wedding is very different from having dyed hair already." Read the original article on People Solve the daily Crossword

D.C. pizza chain offered 30 pizzas over 30 days for $39.99. We had questions.
Word of the promotion floated across our consciousness earlier this month. Local chain &pizza was offering customers one pizza a day for 30 days for $39.99. We had questions. Namely: Whaaa?? Also: Why? And: Who is over there living out every kid's culinary fantasy? We let those great mysteries stand until this week, when reports of pie-related chaos bubbled up on Reddit. 'Unfortunately, they are completely unprepared for the volume of orders,' one pizza lover reported. 'The overwhelmed workers are screaming at their customers that there is a 1 hour wait.'

"Both Sides Of The Family Don't Talk Anymore": Here Are 16 Wildly Unhinged Stories From People Who Had Sex With Their Partner's Family Members
"Both Sides Of The Family Don't Talk Anymore": Here Are 16 Wildly Unhinged Stories From People Who Had Sex With Their Partner's Family Members People sleeping with their partner's siblings, cousins, and even parents sounds like something that only happens in the movies, but that isn't the case! There are many individuals who decided to hook up with their in-laws IRL and live that soap opera life... That's why when Redditor u/Any-Name533 asked, "People who've slept with a partner's or ex's sibling. How did it happen and what was the aftermath?" people who hooked up with their partner's family members shared their wildest stories, and it's safe to say these holiday gatherings might be a little awkward. Without further ado, here are 16 of their most shocking encounters: If you've ever slept with an in-law, feel free to tell us about it anonymously using this form! Related: 24 Very, Very, Very, Very Disturbing Facts That Are Seriously So Intense, I'm 99% Sure They're About To Break Your Brain 1."One day, I came home to a note on the counter. It was from my girlfriend letting me know that we were breaking up. To make sure I understood, she was considerate enough to leave a set of her underwear on the floor and a condom she had used with someone else in the trash..." 2."Not me, but a guy I worked with years ago: Thanksgiving was coming up, and I asked if he had plans yet. He said, 'Yeah, but family holiday gatherings are always tense.' So, I asked him to explain." "He said, 'Well, I have three sisters and all of them have been married to and had kids with the same man.' He divorced sister one, married sister two, divorced sister two, and married sister three. The guy had seven kids who are both half-siblings and cousins to each other by three sisters. Two of the sons had the exact same name because they were named after the 'multi-husband.' One sister only had daughters; otherwise, it could have been three boys with identical names. His life was unhinged." —u/nebelhund 3."When I was 18, I was casually dating (and seriously sleeping with) my best friend's older brother. When he realized I probably wasn't going to keep my knickers on for four years of college, he dumped me for the girl he's still married to." "In retaliation, I started hooking up with their other brother, who was six years older. To this day, my best friend (who was furious at the time) pretends it didn't happen; although I'm not sure she knows about me and her oldest brother. The younger brother (now 49) refused to speak to me at his mother's funeral this year, but the older one (55) still has time for me. I wasn't a particularly good friend, or girlfriend, in the early 2000s." —u/Moleypeg 4."I used to work at a fast food restaurant in the early '90s. There were three employees who were sisters. On my first day, I could tell that the oldest sister and I were going to have sex, and sure enough, we did the first night we knew each other. The other sisters were twins, 'Bonnie' and 'Rachael.' Bonnie had no interest in me, but Rachael was hot, and after about two weeks, she picked me up at a bar because I was drunk. We went on to have random sex for the next several years." Related: 44 Jaw-Droppingly Selfish, Entitled Humans Who Clearly Think The World Revolves Around Them 5."My great aunt thought she was dying, so she confessed to her sister that her two 'nieces' were actually the result of a decadeslong affair with her husband." "Thirty years of lies, blown up in one breath. And then…my great aunt didn't die. She stuck around for years, just chilling while the entire family simmered in nuclear fallout. Deathbed confession with no death — just vibes and generational trauma." —u/grhollo 6."My girlfriend of five months took me to see a movie. When we got back to her place, she told me in the hallway, 'Hey, listen, I don't want to do this anymore,' and broke up with me on the spot — no last hug, nothing. I was already suspicious of the way she had been texting and hiding her phone, but whatever." "As I was walking out to my car, I ran into her younger sister. (They lived in a duplex built by their late father.) I told her what happened, and she invited me in for coffee. She continually caressed my hand and shoulders, and we kept looking into each other's eyes. We started making out, so she took me by the hand and led me to her bedroom. I ended up spending the night. When I woke up in the morning, I left her house, and guess who happened to see me on the way out?" —u/ForGrateJustice 7."In 2009, I went to stay with my girlfriend's family for Thanksgiving. Her sister said we could sleep in her room and bed as long as nothing happened. Well, my girlfriend didn't care about her sister's rules, so we ended up doing the deed in the bed, even though I refused at first." 8."I had an on-again, off-again relationship with a friend for years. We had hooked up, but she was leaving the town for school, so there was tension between us because we both wanted more from the relationship but knew it wasn't going to happen." "We went to an event, and both of us were trying to make the other one angry so our fling would be easier to forget. She started kissing someone, so I decided to kiss her sister. My friend-ex moved, and I started to date her sister. (She is my ex nowadays, too.) It was the worst decision of my life. I should have just moved after my friend, even if it wouldn't have worked out." —u/AhmedAlSayef Related: "It's Adding An Absurd Amount Of Joy To My Life" — The 21 Best, Funny, Most Wholesome Posts Online This Week 9."I dated a woman for about a year and a half who talked sh*t about me to her best friend, who believed every she met me and realized it was all lies. She ended up telling me that my girlfriend was cheating on me. So I slept with my girlfriend's older sister once..." 10."Not me, but my parents: My dad dated my mom's older sister. They broke up, and then my parents got married. Then my parents got divorced, and my dad married my mom's sister. It caused a huge family rift." "They got divorced, my dad returned to my mom, and I was born. They got married again before I was born because my dad didn't want a child out of 'wedlock.' My dad never went to any family events. My mom and her sister eventually established a relationship again, and my grandmother referred to my dad as her recycled son-in-law. Needless to say, my dad had a type. I wish I were making this up." —u/Yarn_Cat_7850 11."In high school, I hooked up with a girl and we dated for a while. We later broke up, but it wasn't anything major." "Fast forward 26 years: I met her sister at a friend's wedding. We hit it off, started dating, and boom, 16 years and three kids later, we are doing awesome. The original sister and I got along for the first 13 years, but we haven't talked for the past three years." —u/TheJonnieP 12."I found out the guy I was in a friends-with-benefits relationship with had a secret girlfriend, so we stopped having sex. I eventually met his older, more attractive brother, who happened to be visiting, and he invited me back to his place." 13."I slept with my best friend's little sister, then a few months later, his mom — the mom was better, she put in the most enthusiastic effort." "Mom knew I slept with her daughter, too, but she didn't care. However, the daughter got upset when she found out I slept with her mom." —u/Capzien89 Related: 15 Men Who Tried To "Educate" Women About Their Own Bodies And Failed So, So Miserably 14."When I was a teenager, I fell hard for a guy who eventually cheated on me. He had a brother, a year younger than us, whom I met by accident. Initially, I wanted to become his friend so that I could get back at my ex — I thought it would drive him nuts (it did). But then feelings developed, and I fell harder for his brother than I had for him. We secretly dated for a few weeks before it became too hard to hide." 15."My ex cheated, and her sister called me out of the blue a year later. So, I got with her and we dated for two years — even went to Thanksgiving together once. It was the most surreal experience." "I couldn't take it any longer, so I ended it and moved on. I don't recommend it. Some things are taboo for good reason." —u/Adventurous_Ad_4145 16."I'm not sure if this qualifies, but it's revenge all on its own: My little sister had a boyfriend, let's call him 'James.' The first thing he said to me once, when we met for a drink, was: 'How does it make you feel that I'm sleeping with your sister?' He was a little prick and I never liked him."
