Lo! The ultimate cheeky fucker has been found

[learieonthewildmoor]

A friend of mine died suddenly a few weeks ago. He had separated from his wife last year and had made a will.
He had been invited to a wedding next year. The mother of the bride texted his ex-wife asking that money from his estate be used to buy a gift for the couple.

Everyone who knew and loved him is still reeling from his death. But the important thing for this woman is her daughter still gets a gift from him. How in the name of all that is good and holy would you ask that?
My friend, God love him, was a tight bastard and would have been buying the cheapest thing on the registry; which makes it even worse somehow.

Whaaat? Who does that!

😳🥴and 😆. CF’ery reaching beyond the grave. She’s a nutcase.

Wow!!! That’s quite something!!

Lord that it's really bad!!!

Perhaps a wreath from the grave side?

They could use it for the tip table and save a few bob.

Or a little coffin made of silver to go on top of the wedding cake?

Failing that, they’d get a book on grieving.

unbelievable.

WTAF 😡

Top table. 😖

Yes this is a perfect opportunity for passive aggression. Something really tacky and funeral related would be a fitting comeback.

RIP ops friend

Fucking hell

If ever there's a story for the DM it's this one.

And she did it by text! His ex- wife hasn’t replied: what on earth would you say to that?

You don’t say anything. You approach the most gossipy person you know and confide in them. They will do the rest.

I hope everyone gets to hear about this grabby woman and she learns a lesson.

No gift deserved!

I'd send a chilly wedding card, wishing them a long life and good luck.

Simple. She completely ignores it.

Love this approach 😁

The title of this post promised so much and the text absolutely delivered.

Such a good idea to tell the most gossipy person. Would be interesting to see if she doubles down and insists there's nothing inappropriate about her request when every spreads the news in horror.

You win! For all time, this will be the worst story of wedding CF-ery.
I'm sorry you lost your friend, and even more sorry that some people are self-absorbed beyond all description.

Dear CF-er,

Thank you for your condolences.

Before his untimely death, one of his priorities was to purchase a gift for the wedding of your daughter. It will be delivered on the day of the wedding.

Kind regards,

Grieving ex-partner

Well she's disgusting

Im hoping, beyond hope, that you're a T.r.o'll. because if you're for real it's one of the most in fucking unbelievably cunty things I've heard of.

I'd screengrab the text message, post it on here and it will be all over the internet and the Daily Fail by the evening.

Yeah this! Perfect punishment for that cheek!

Blimey

The ex wife needs to text back -

Hello, I’m afraid there was a misunderstanding when my ex husband was buried. We thought the expensive dinner set he had recently bought was for himself and we didn’t realise it was a wedding gift to your daughter and husband to be.

I regret to tell you that the dinner set has been buried along with him in his coffin.

You are welcome to come and dig down and retrieve it as the ground hasn’t been hardened yet by frost but it might be best if you came at night as the graveyard management team and anyone visiting might be a bit sniffy seeing you digging in the daytime. Kind regards.
