UK B!tches Unite!

At least you're not in one of those states that has restrictions on beer and the alcohol content is restricted to like 3.5%.

Please tell me that what you've written above is not true!

That's, like, beer sacrilege!

which states are these? I need to avoid them.

[The_Dude 1,142]

I'm not sure if they are actually still that way, but my father and my cousin who were each stationed at an army base in Maryland during the 60's for my father and late 80's for my cousin always complained about the 3.5% beer they had in Maryland.

I live in one of the "beer sacrilege" states. Oklahoma. 3.2 is the limit here. Everyone drives to Texas and bootlegs it back.

Real pron is also illegal here. Nothing more than a strong R rating is allowed (in other words, no actual penetration can be shown on film).

Tattoos were just legalized here about 2 1/2 years ago. Before then, you had to go out of state to get one. We only got a lottery 3 years ago.

Welcome to Oklahoma, one of the most backwards states. And it's always windy here because Kansas blows and Texas sucks!

[Trompe le Monde 1,107]

I did not even realize tattoos were recently illegal in some places! Welcome to the 21st century Oklahoma!

I'm not officially one of the UK Bitches, still being somewhat a Noob, but I've got a severe non-immigration related b!tch I need to let out. Do you guys mind?

My mother's husband died on Wednesday. I'll say up front that the man was a ####### to me and used my mother for 22 years. He was 15 years her senior, saw potential in her to be a meal ticket, and rode that for 22 years. He had already raised his children when I came along (I was 9 when they married) and got rid of me (shipped off to a boarding school) as soon as he could con my mother into doing it. (Trust me, I know she had her part in it too, but without his involvement, it never would have happened.)

Ok... all that aside. His two grown daughters, one is 44 and one is 48. They have treated my mother like ####### for years. My mother has cared for that worthless sack of sh!t for 12 years when the doctors would give him exercises to do to rehabilitate himself and increase of lung function but he'd refuse to do them and just expect her to wait on him hand and foot. The oldest daughter hasn't come around in the past 12 years except when he's been in the hospital close to his deathbed, and then only to ask, 'What do I get when you die, daddy?' The younger one came around, but also stole from them (my mother paid for everything except his meds, which is all his SSD would cover) so in the end, my mom had to foot the bill when he refused to cut her off. (Let me interject here that she's 44, has 2 pre-teen daughters, has been divorced for 12 years and STILL lives with her mother, but can't pay her own bills without having to pay rent and utilities.)

Since he died on Wednesday night these girls have been nothing but selfish b!tches to my mother, they wanted THEIR mom, the EX wife who has treated my mother worse than pond scum for 22 years, to come to the funeral. If I were in my mother's place, I don't know how I'd feel. My mother didn't want her there, and I respect that. The girls threw a hissy fit, claimed they weren't coming till this morning, and didn't show up when the other family car came for them, but came to the funeral home anyway. They didn't offer to help pay for any of the funeral services, but pitched a fit that my mom didn't pay for flowers with a "Daddy" or "Papa" ribbon on them for their side.

I'm completely drained today from taking care of my mom for the past 5 days. I would do it again in a heartbeat because she's my mother and I'd do anything for her. But these girls are as selfish as they come. The younger of the 2 has things that belonged to my mom and their dad, and is driving a small pickup that's still in their names. She thinks she's just going to be able to keep her mouth shut and my mom won't take it away from her. He tried to make it clear to them that they get nothing when he dies, it's all in a living trust to go to my mother, because it's all hers anyway since she paid for it all. I know they're still going to expect things and it's enfuriating to me that they are THAT selfish. My mother has done everything for that man and he's been such a ba$tard to her in return, and now she's having to put up with his spawn for NOTHING. She's done NOTHING to deserve this. I just wish they'd join their dad.

Sorry. Just needed a vent for a bit. This weekend has been awful. I'll bow out of the b!tch session now.

I'm sorry to hear that - sometimes the death of family/a loved one brings out the worst in people

[*julez* 124]

Dodi, that is a legitimate ######, if ever there was one. I'm sorry you and your mom are having and have had such an awful time. I hope things get better. You're a welcome b!tch here, imo.

Welcome to Oklahoma, one of the most backwards states. And it's always windy here because Kansas blows and Texas sucks!

didn't anyone tell you it's illegal to go barefoot in oklahoma?

that's because it sucks so bad you get hickeys on your feet.

[Ban Hammer 13,345]

dodi, i've learned something about funerals - they bring out the worst in people. you have my sympathies with that situation.

[Pooky 3,786]

Dodi, once you have recovered from the funeral and taking care of your mother, I hope you get the chance to sort the Ugly Stepsisters out, once and for all.

[Mags 112]

Dodi, that was an absolutely valid b!tchathon.

One thing to think about, once the cow-bag daughters realise there really is nothing else to be financially gained from their father, they'll hopefully ####### off and you'll never hear from them again.

Be there for you mother but don't waste a single moments energy on them.

[Nik+Heather 121]

Be there for you mother but don't waste a single moments energy on them.

Boy, I wish I could waste some energy on them. So many things I wish I could tell them - like get your own freaking flowers if you wanted some that said daddy on them!!!!!!! OMFG!!

[Gemmie 142]

Exactly what I was going to say. Leeches like these two will only be around during the 'after-math' and then slither away once they realise they're not gaining anything. I'm sorry you're going through this. Focus on you and your mum, and don't waste energy on silly little girls like that. Just think how sad their lives must be if they have to behave this way.

[Dodi 69]

Thank you, guys. They haven't tried to contact my mother or I since the funeral yesterday - not that they spoke to her there either. I'm not expecting much until she tells the younger leech that she'll have 30 days to come up with money to buy the truck or hand over the keys so it can be sold. She drove their last vehicle for 8 years without paying a dime - including getting into a wreck with it still in my mom's name and under my mom's insurance, making my mom clean up the mess - and he still wouldn't cut her off.

My mom was going to give her 6 months to come up with the cash. I told her 30 days was more than sufficient, and if she gave her any grief, to tell her she can go sell b1owjobs for $20 a piece to raise the cash. Might improve her sex life at the same time.

Today was a little easier for her. She went back to work (she's the Assistant Director of the Nursing Ed program at a local college). Hopefully each day will get a little easier.

Thank you again for your kind messages. I just needed someone to vent to, and everyone else is busy at the moment.
