In a new post this week on the Wedding Shaming Reddit thread, a guest told a harrowing story about what happened when they attended someone's recent nuptials. The user prefaced the post by admitting they weren't sure if they were 'overreacting' or not - but according to the responses in the comments, it didn't seem to be so. 'Pretty much, I don't believe that officiant was a real priest, but rather a 30ish church goer who was recommended by a friend of the groom,' the Reddit user began. 'He spent a little too long talking about himself in my opinion and definitely didn't sound very professional,' the poster continued. But according to the guest, the end of the ceremony is where things began to take a a turn for the worst. 'Anyways near the end, he makes a comment about how it was a good thing that the groom was, "definitely marrying up,"' the poster typed. 'Meaning that the bride was significantly better looking than the groom.' 'I get that that could be seen as just a simple joke, but I guess if I was the bride I would be very mad if any part of the wedding ceremony speech was used to talk negatively about either of our looks,' the post continued. 'I also just felt like it was unprofessional.'

But I thought I would share it and see if anyone else finds that tacky?' And, strangely enough, many users seemed to relate to this wedding ceremony gaffe, sharing their own experiences in response. 'This happened to someone I know. The groom's father opposed the marriage and was incredibly rude to the bride when they met for the first time,' one user shared. The response continued: 'He caused a lot of stress and tension during the run up to the wedding. The priest who was to marry them got sick on the wedding day so a family friend of the bride’s parents stepped up. 'He excoriated the groom and told him in a really nasty voice, "never forget that you married up." It was horrible — the poor groom was innocent, he spent years trying to get his parents to accept his fiancée, he defended her, stood up to his father, etc., only to be publicly berated and humiliated at the altar.' Someone else wrote, 'I was at my friend's wife's funeral. Someone from their old church made a remark about how physically unattractive the deceased had been. 'Some bald pot-bellied boomer inappropriately dressed for a funeral. I wanted to go up to him at the reception and b**** slap him... and I later found out the Minister did to. Some people just shouldn't be allowed out in society.' 'Went to a Catholic wedding in about 2010, can't remember the exact date. The priest's homily droned on and on for about 45 minutes,' another person typed. But making a comment about the groom's appearance isn't the worst thing that could happen (stock image) Many users seemed to relate to this wedding ceremony gaffe, sharing their own experiences in response 'During that time, the priest mentioned at least three times that the bride should be obedient and a good mother,' they continued, in part. 'He told the groom just to be a good provider. I was so mad you could probably see steam coming out of my ears.' And, while some people didn't have the same experience at other weddings they've been to, they did agree it was 'tacky' for the officiant to say what they did. 'Officiant was beyond tacky. His/her job is to perform a marriage ceremony, nothing more, nothing less,' one Redditor pointed out. 'That's a comment you might save for a speech at the reception, not in the middle of the ceremony,' another agreed. 'And even then, unless you are a really good friend of the family, it would be out of line.' But making a comment about the groom's appearance isn't the worst thing that could happen. In another post on the Wedding Shaming forum on Reddit last year, some brides exposed their worst-behaved wedding guests. 'My bridesmaid's boyfriend drank eight martinis and threw up in the women’s restroom,' one recalled. Another chimed in: 'My own mother interrupted my vows. Sometimes I still hear her shouting "Louder!" as I'm drifting off to sleep.' People wearing casual clothing was also an issue for another bride who was horrified when a guest's plus one turned up in denim capris and flip flops.

Remembering Manmohan Singh: A Secular VisionaryHENDERSON, Nev. (AP) — Aidan O'Connell might not be Mr. Right for the Raiders, but he is Mr. Right Now. He did enough in Friday's 19-17 loss at Kansas City to show that Las Vegas' quarterback job will be his for the rest of the season — barring, that is, another injury. O'Connell didn't look like a quarterback who hadn't played in nearly six weeks because of a broken thumb . Plus, the Raiders had a short week to prepare for the Chiefs, meaning O'Connell only went through a series of walk-through practices. Even so, he completed 23 of 35 passes for 340 yards, including touchdown passes of 33 yards to tight end Brock Bowers and 58 yards to wide receiver Tre Tucker. He didn't throw any interceptions. “Thought he competed,” coach Antonio Pierce said Saturday morning. “I thought for what we knew we were getting with Spags (Kansas City defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo) and that defense, that he stood in the pocket, made some tough throws, took some hits, took the shots down the field like we wanted. We had some opportunities to take shots down the field, he threw them. And I thought our skill guys did a hell of a job competing and making some really good plays for us.” O'Connell's performance would've shined even more if not for the Raiders' final offensive play. He led the Raiders from their 8-yard line to the Chiefs 32 with 15 seconds left. The plan was for O'Connell to take the snap and throw the ball away to run off a few more seconds, then send Daniel Carlson out for the potential winning field goal without giving Patrick Mahomes enough time to mount one of his signature comebacks. But rookie center Jackson Powers-Johnson snapped the ball before O'Connell was expecting it, and the Chiefs recovered to secure another close, last-minute victory. The Raiders were called for illegal shift, which Kansas City declined. But there was some question about whether officials intended to call a false start instead. Though that infraction would have cost Las Vegas 5 yards, the pre-snap penalty still would've given Carlson a shot at the field goal. Pierce said his team heard an official's whistle before the snap, and that will be included in the Raiders' report to the NFL. “We do that every game,” Pierce said. “Typically, anywhere from three to five questions, and then we’ll get a letter within 24 to 36 hours, and we’ll read it and learn from it.” Bowers had another sensational game. He was targeted 14 times, catching 10 passes for 140 yards. For the season, he has 84 receptions for 884 yards and four TDs, making him a strong contender for Offensive Rookie of the Year. “We’re seeing double-teams and them really shifting their zone to him, and I don’t really think it matters,” Pierce said. “I think we've got a really special player on our hand.” The Raiders need to do better on first and second downs to set up more favorable third-down conversions. They have faced 47 third downs from 7 to 10 yards, tied with the Dallas Cowboys for fifth most. Las Vegas' conversion rate on those plays is 36.2%, which actually is favorable compared to the rest of the league, but the Raiders are still creating too many of those situations. Las Vegas made life difficult for Mahomes, sacking him five times. And it wasn't just Maxx Crosby bringing the heat. Four players had at least one-half sack, including K’Lavon Chaisson, who had 1 1/2. It was a season-high total for the Raiders, and they have taken down the opposing quarterback in 30 consecutive games, the third-longest active streak. Carlson is usually money, but he missed field goals from 56, 55 and 58 yards. Hardly chip shots, but he is capable of converting from those distances. He had made 30 of 38 field goals from 50-plus yards entering the game, with a career long of 57 yards. WR DJ Turner injured his knee in the second half. 12 — The Raiders are one of three teams to fall behind double digits in each of their first 12 games of a season. The others were the 1986 Indianapolis Colts and 1972 New England Patriots. The Raiders visit Tampa Bay on Dec. 8. AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/nfl
