| 0:00.0 | My entitled sister-in-law removes me and the rest of my family from her wedding photos entirely, |
| 0:05.2 | as she literally made it seem like we did not even exist. So I decided to get some revenge by |
| 0:10.2 | returning the favor in full, by choosing to eviscerate her from my wedding entirely, while also |
| 0:15.3 | humiliating her in the process. Here's what happened. When my brother got married, his bride, |
| 0:19.9 | who's now my sister-in-law, |
| 0:21.2 | had very specific expectations. She wanted everyone in the family to wear their wedding colors, |
| 0:25.9 | and we all did. People flew in from out of state. Everyone made an effort to make her feel celebrated. |
| 0:31.2 | Well, the day before the wedding, she made some offhand but clearly pointed remarks about how |
| 0:35.5 | our side of the family never takes anything seriously, and how she wasn't expecting us to take this seriously either |
| 0:41.1 | Well, the comments made their rounds and feelings were hurt before the wedding even began |
| 0:45.0 | But we still showed up looked great and we participated fast forward to getting the wedding photos and video and not a single photo of our side of the family was posted |
| 0:53.3 | Not a single one in the entire three the family was posted, not a single one. In the entire |
| 0:55.7 | three-minute highlight reel, there was literally no faces of our family, except for a three-second |
| 1:00.5 | clip of my parents with a bride and groom. The rest of us were cut out as if we didn't even exist. |
| 1:05.6 | I texted her very cordially, mind you, and I asked if she could send me the pictures with |
| 1:09.2 | just our siblings since none had been |
| 1:11.1 | posted. And she responded to me by saying, oh, we never even took those pictures. But that's wild |
| 1:16.3 | because I remember helping people adjust corsages for them. But then she just doubled down on the |
| 1:21.4 | gaslighting. I gave it six months and then I asked again. And then suddenly she had no idea what I was |
| 1:26.4 | talking about. So I thought to myself, fine. If you want to act that way, then trust me, I can do the exact same thing. And this is where my petty revenge comes into play. I'm getting married in eight days and I've been engaged for six months and I've been planning this moment since she tried to erase us. I hired a great photographer and videographer. And what she doesn't know is that the videographer has a secret mission. Make it look like she's getting all the attention. Track her, hover near her like she's the star of the show. Make her feel seen, and then during the final cut, she won't appear for even a second, just like the way she made sure that we didn't. Now, originally, I didn't even invite her. Now, word must have gotten out because she quartered me at a family dinner, and she said to me, unfortunately, I have worked the day before and after your wedding, but I should still be able to make it. Well, I was so stunned. I just said to her, that's fine. The Airbnb is booked whether you're there or not. So now, unfortunately, she's coming. And just to cope with this, I decided to spell her name wrong on the wedding invite on purpose. And that was just my first move with the video blackout being my last. Now, here's the thing. I'm not asking for advice, and I'm not asking if it's too mean, because it's not. It's exactly fair, and trust me, she definitely deserves it. Oh, man, I love some mutually assured destruction. |
| 2:34.7 | First of all, your sister-in-law sounds like an absolute jerk. And trust me, I could have said a lot of different words than jerk, but I think you know what I'm trying to say. Who in their right mind would go into a new family and be like, oh, let's edit them out of my highlight reel? It's like, my God, dude, at least pretend like you like your in-laws. Like, why would you start that foundation for a lifelong of dealing with these people? |
| 2:52.8 | That doesn't seem smart or wise in the slightest. Like, that really is a miscalculation. So you know what? I completely agree with the original poster. Your sister-in-law deserves to be eviscerated from your highlight reel. Like, not even a second of her should ever be shown. Because that's what she did to you. And then she tried to act like, oh, we didn't even get pictures of you guys. Like that's obnoxious because you know for a fact she coordinated that never being shown. So yeah, in this case, an eye for an eye truly is the best solution because this lady sounds like she's a complete monster. If you like Am I the Jerk, you're probably going to love Am I the Genius.

Am I the jerk for telling my friend that I know I'm smarter than him? After he literally ranked me as the dumbest person in our friend group because right now apparently he's really offended |
