And now comes the fun part.
Attempting to find a restaurant that my entire family will like. Brother1 and I are the only two who enjoy something other than standard good-old American meat and potatoes. Mom and Brother2 have very boring palates.
Silly Brother1 suggested Madeline's French Bakery & Bistro. HAHAHA!!! *ahem* yeah, Brother2 would most definitely not find anything to eat there.
Well, that was a hoot of a time.
Sister-in-law spent her entire time looking at her phone, which is nothing new.
Brother2 spent his entire time staring up at the TV screens and getting annoyed. Apparently, there's a sports draft going on.
Mom wanted to know if the women, on the TV that was showing women's boxing, were actually women. And chastised Brother2 for how he handles his relationship w/ his wife who isn't living here at the moment. L-O-N-G story
*thread*
@see_the_sus and you spent your time observing them
I've gotten better over the years at not engaging much because when I do try to talk about something with my mom or Brother2, I step into a pile of manure.
With Brother1 and wife, I have to be careful not to get into any sort of discussion that could turn into a case where they're hell-bent on proving me wrong. I suck at debating because I become too emotional. I'd rather just avoid any situation where every conversation turns into a competition.
My sister-in-law has a law degree, although she's never ever practiced (go figure), and so she thinks that she has to fight her way thru conversations.
We almost had a heated discussion about society moving towards 100% digital currency. Mom starts in on "Well that'll be the end of us old folks. You'll see a rise in euthanasia." 
I brought up that the gov't would need to monetarily assist small mom-pop stores in switching to such technology.
Sometimes I have to hold myself back from not bursting out laughing hysterically.
One of my sisters is ALWAYS looking for a fight. Especially after her cocktail hour. She baits me by text. I have learned to ignore her. It’s really so sad.
Ugh. I hate narcissism.
Thankfully the only time I communicate with either of my sisters-in-laws is when I'm around them with their husbands.
@LnzyHou @see_the_sus it would be healthier to ignore her.
