My friend's husband is turning 40 and she wants to throw a surprise party for him. So in order to pull it off, they're organizing an additional birthday outing to the baseball game, with a box and inclusive tickets, and plans to go out afterward. Then a different day, she's having a surprise party. People are invited to both.
I am side eyeing the sh!t out of this. I suppose most people do go all out for 40th birthdays, but I think expecting people to attend two parties to keep a surprise secret is really dumb.
I needed to type this somewhere. Thanks for listening, kids.

I'm probably extra irritated because she asked me to "work" the surprise party. It's a casino night at their house, and I'm supposed to be a dealer.
Her husband is a little-bit-racist Glenn Beck fan, too.
But, I've been friends with her since we were 13, so.....

I didn't go to her wedding because my family had a vacation planned months before she told me her date. BUT, she is one of those people that sells pyramid scheme stuff at parties her friends throw!
disclaimer: these are her most flameworthy qualities. She's a good friend!

Ugh, I have a cousin who does that. She sold purses, tupperware, sex toys...you name it, she sold it.
Does Christin know this friend? i'd like her to weigh in on this because I think you're letting years of being friends blind you to the fact that this person is kind of anasshole
She has met her but isn't good friends with her. But she has always been incredibly spastic about birthdays; every single one is like Party Like it's 1999. So a milestone birthday, well, you might as well reserve the month for that person!
