I'm thinking that there isn't enough room in this marriage for the three...ooops I mean four of them. Dad & daughter--son & mom. The dad and daughter team are hysterical. They lean into each other and peer into each others eyes--almost as if we'll hear some awful Broadway duet being belted out at any moment. Dad does need to get a job....soon!!! And Granny! Waht a change fromthe sweet supportive thing she was in Yellow Hankie. This one is a yeller (but for the life of me I don't understand why she doesn't just hire a housekeeper instead of complaining about the work. Money is clearly no object. You wouldn't have to ask me twice

You wouldn't have to ask me twice Well, buddhacat, that is because you are not a manipulative old bat whose power lies in being "taken advantage of." How could she complain if she allowed herself to be treated well? Who would pay any attention to her? I love how she pretends to be helpful and kind to her DIL, then viciously rips her as soon as her back is turned. This is fun. Bo

I think it's true of most older housewives though, my mother complains and complains about stuff she sometimes does for me, but when I tell her I will take care of it from now on she gets mad and asks if she isn't doing it right.

Well, you know what will hit the fan now that those dishes have been replaced. Should we have a poll to see who prefers which dinnerware?
I'll start...as much as I think Dad is way to neurotic--no, no it is just the artiste' in him--I do think he has the better taste (except for the teddy bear, who makes #5 in the marriage) in dinnerware. Mom's choice is just too "Dollar Store" for me--you'd think they would have commissioned Ja-young to make a set.
And speaking of fun, what about that little bedroom scene when grandma goes to the sauna? Way too funny!

Dollar Store! That’s funny. Actually I liked the dad’s plates better too, but I think I would have picked a different color. I’m not such a fan of brown.
The dad should definitely give some GQ lessons to his son-in-law about casual wear. Did y’all see what the boy was wearing coming back from his honeymoon? It looked like he stole the fushia and big purple flower shirt from his twelve year-old sister.

Galacticchick, you are too funny. ;D ;D ;D The son-in-law really needs to take lessons on matching his clothes; or the lack there of. And I too like the Dad's dishes. To me the Mom's look like very elegant plastic plates and cups. Go figure!!!!
