MLPFC Shit Posting

A bunch of family are over to see the new baby and combo see each other for New years. (Which is today)

My wife’s cousin apparently just agreed to an arranged marriage proposal after like 5 years of her Dad trying to get her married.

All the women are excited and are talking a million miles a hour FaceTimeing random relatives about it etc etc.

The future groom is getting his Masters in Chemical Engineering from Houston and has a job in big oil already. Already owns a nice house and is debt free. Has his shit together vs. my wife’s bimbo hair dresser cousin who has a sub 100 IQ and Daddy’s credit cards.

Anyhoo, the Women had been talking nonstop for like 45 mins when during a lull in the conversation my father in law just randomly looks up from his phone and says “yes it’s a good match but he is so fat.” and then looks back down at his phone to watch more golf videos. Zero fucks given, didn’t say it as a joke or mean was just like “damn that boy big tho”.


Made me laugh so hard I had to pretend i was coughing and had to leave the room to hide it. Idk if it’s the lack of sleep but my FIL dropping a Nuke on the convo was just so funny

He is a fat Indian getting his Masters in chemical engineering from Houston.

Got no idea about anything else except this info.


PS: when I say arranged marriage I mean literally arranged marriage, so obviously everybody involved is Patel.

It absolutely 100% still exists. I mean, people have rights so their parents can’t legally force them to get married, but in a lot of families there is still huge pressure to do an arranged marriage.

Lot of younger Indians are avoiding it, though.
 
Wrapping up our week in sunny SW Florida, ready to return home where we turn into pumpkins and this week will all have been a dream. The wife was kayaking with her sister-in-law in the lagoon behind the house, the Gulf of Mexico is their front yard, and saw a dolphin. Her day, week, month, year has been made lol.

We went south about 50 miles to see if there was any obvious hurricane damage. There was a lot. Every sign was twisted or down and there were so many blue tarps on commercial buildings and homes awaiting new roofs that we lost count. We didn't venture to Ft. Myers as there are still many closed roads. My in-laws dodged a big fat bullet by about 30 miles.

The coast is not dramatic like California, everything is really flat, but it is charming in its own way. Lots of mangrove swamps and coconut trees which gives it a very tropical feel.

Tonight we sat on the back patio smoking Perdomo cigars and sipping cognac and single barrel bourbon. I could get used to this.

They have never met, only talked on the phone and FaceTimed. They are meeting this week, she is flying down to Houston. (Both sets of parents will be present)

My wife and I were the first love marriage in the immediate family.

1 of the reasons her cousin was considered the black sheep was because her dad was trying to get her arranged for 5 years and she was refusing.

I was gonna use the term “love marriage” in my post because I find it fascinating, but I figured nobody else would understand the reference.

People would be astounded at how recently love marriages became the tradition. Some say say mid 18th Century but that's when they began, not when they became the standard.
