What kind of phone does that.

Almost any smart phone can be used as a remote.

Is it an app?

Is it an app?

Yep. I know there are apps for android and Windows phones. I'm not sure about iPhones but they might have an app also.

I might be alone in saying this but I loathe hanging out with my girlfriends' family. I'd rather clean a porta-potty.

I'm down to one Brother and two Uncles on my side so if I want any family at all I'm stuck with the In-laws. Actually they are great people---a little weird at times---but at least they like to party.

What if she's the one?

Might want to find a new girlfriend.

Why?

 

[cosmo1]

Why?

Because she is part of the family you can't stand. Twenty years from now, family will trump you.

Years ago we made a deal in my immediate family that we wouldn't buy each other gifts for xmas/birthdays etc and it's really been a relief for everyone. Now on those days we just get together eat some good food and hang out.

That's a cool concept.

Hell no!

I also thought $400 was much too high.

When I was married her family would draw names out of a hat.
