to speak to DBIL's wife about this antagonistic behaviour?

[Backtofrontsaddened]

Letter writing 101 - you put the card into the envelope with the picture peeping through the V iyswim and anything else is actually rude to the reciever. I have sat on this for years, but now I just feel that it's a barbed dig against me. She doesn't like me - I have a good life and I thinks she's a bit jealous of my house and car. AIBU to have a word with her about the slight I have already ripped up the card in temper.

DH's DB's wife is your sister-in-law, non?

No. It's all fresh and no one is advising me.

I hope you haven't bought her a Christmas present. Shocking behaviour.

advising you? about what?

Oh right - advice....errrrrr..........

Leave the bastard

Buy the spotty one

Get some Oven Pride

Feed on demand

Ikea Antilop

The only way to know you're pregnant is take a test!

Any of those any good to you?

Aldi's pretend Southern Comfort is fabulous.

Morrison's party food is surprisingly edible

There is card insertion into envelope ettiquette.

You do not insert it so your sliver letter paper knife will cut through it and slice the card or letter in half.

You are right she's cow.

What Northern said.

Or the AIBU classics

Is that all you have to worry about? Count yerself lucky
Get a hobby
Why don't you get a job and out-earn her?
How would it be if you substituted 'ginger person' for 'envelope'? Huh?

You can just pick one

I thought the traditional way to settle this was a duel. Then you can really piss her off by having much shinier pistols.

That's just plain racist.

Leave the bastard.

Is this envelope cleavage?

I'm searching for the 'like' button... too much port.

YANBU & YABVU.

WTactual F??

No, no, no - it's picture facing forward!! Then use your letteropener to cut along the top of the envelope to the back of the card.

wtf?

@ northernlurker

Never use a letteropener with a CCard. There is a slight possibility of slicing the card in two. Although that wouldn't have been vicious enough for her card.

She sounds absolutely dreadful! Obviously doesn't know her arse form her elbow.

Next time you're all together, why don't you drop it casually into conversation?

"I was having a chat with the girls the other day and we couldn't agree which way the card should come out of the envelope! What does everyone else do?" (This must be executed in your finest chirrupy voice).

Then sit back and watch her squirm.

Perhaps its because you are to pretty and you intimidate her.
Send her a tissue card with a candle and firn that will show her.

I shall do that tallwiv.
Should I call her on her toilet paper etiquette as well? She likes it split so that the 2 sheets come off the roll separately - she says it makes the paper pouffe up more, meaing "visitors are encouraged to use less"?

Sorry I'm like LondonMumsie & ScroobiousPip I was always taught picture to the front away from the envelope flap so the picture doesn't get damaged by a clumsy opener.

However, if she has any form of knitted toilet roll cover you have my permission to do away with her with a letter opener.

Backtofront I am flabbergasted about the toilet paper thing. I have never heard of that. Bring that one up as well.

Report back. Please. I have weaned myself off soaps and need a fix, I really do.
