Quoted from jhanley:You need to seriously go talk to someone.Pronto
He just said he's going to talk to mango. Pay attention.
Quoted from jhanley:Mango is a person or is he going to talk to a mango as in fruit?
Mango the monkey. Pay attention.
Quoted from tacshose:We have seen a pic of you, your dog, but no wife or sisters, let’s see the crazies.
I agree. Perhaps the chicks are super attractive and he’s putting up with all this because of that (you know, the old hotness to crazy scale thing). Absent a photo we will never know.
Link to cdn's Mango the Monkey thread from a year or two ago.

I believe this is where cdn goes when he needs to hang out with Mango and vent about his extended family drama.

Hey cdn,
Are these the islands you escape to when trying to save yourself from your wife's family?
Fox Island, Snake Island, Georgina Island, and Thorah Island?
https://www.google.com/maps/place/Innisfil,+ON,+Canada/@44.4123958,-79.3226551,11z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x882ab00dc176ce35:0xf7066f5ec40dbd0a!8m2!3d44.3008813!4d-79.6114973
When you get to the island, do you sometimes see other husbands there that are in the same situation, trying to maintain their sanity and getting away from in-laws? I trust that you guys are recycling and not leaving beer cans all over the island.
Are people allowed to camp out overnight on the islands?
Quoted from Travish:Don't know why but Al Bundy keeps popping into my head.
Why you would say that Travish?

Quoted from Pinball-is-great:Why you would say that Travish?
I can still remember that one episode Al went skydiving and the instructor asks Al to get his his parachute on and Al says no thanks and jumps out the plane with a smile on his face
Quoted from Darcy:To the left of Sioux Lookout. NNE from Kenora. Between absolutely nothing and the vast expanse of Northern Ontario.
Yeah, thats what i thought. Way the hell up north !
Updates....
Pictures of the rest of the family? Mango status check?
Did Ray start with cheap beer and move to Jagermeister shots?

While very humorous, I have no sympathy at all. You wed in to the situation, you have kids in the situation. You can't say after those events that you want out. There are instincts involved that every man possesses. You should have listened to that little voice in your head when you were courting screaming "run the hell away". There were warning signs. You know that you ignored those voices. You should have listened to them.
If only posting for humor, right on!
Quoted from irobot:The OP's problem is that he's a wimp.
That's not intended to be an insult.
All he has to do is refuse to go along with all this crap and it will all be over. Just put your foot down and it's over and done with.
People treat you the way you allow them to treat you.
Congrats, you finally said something that makes sense!
Quoted from Robl45:you either deal with it or get divorced and I ain't getting divorced.
So you think its better to be in a miserable marriage for the rest of your life which could be 50-60 years or so depending on your age, than to go find a good woman that will treat you good and not cause you all these problems and headaches? Staying in a shitty marriage is the dumbest thing that anyone could ever do, screw that. You only live once, why be miserable because of a bad marriage?
Quoted from Who-Dey:So you think its better to be in a miserable marriage for the rest of your life which could be 50-60 years or so depending on your age, than to go find a food woman that will treat you good and not cause you all these problems and headaches?

Where do I find these “food women”? You have me intrigued.

For real!!! I mean people make other mistakes all the time and move on. But apparently if you make the mistake of marriage you should be stuck in it forever.

Quoted from jlm33:Men change too...
That what happens when all the life gets sucked out of you. 
Flip it on em
It’s your turn to be the black sheep.
Do it & do it well. They’re gonna respect you more if you assert your alpha fuckup status.
Next time they come over all Jerry Springer & needy go put on a speedo, eat a terrifying dose of edibles & proceed to watch Golden Girls while drinking malt liquor.
I think we pretty much stay the same. Women start changing the day after the wedding and it gets worse after they have kids.

The wedding is off folks. Jordan ran away to become a full time boxer. Sister so upset she had to go to the hospital. She's fine now.
Quoted from cdnpinbacon:The wedding is off folks. Jordan ran away to become a full time boxer. Sister so upset she had to go to the hospital. She's fine now.
whats his record
0-2 , I'll admit, I was his corner guy at his first fight.
Jordan was the main event and the last fight. Finally it's his turn (I was pretty bombed at this point with the open bar)
So it's a big deal with lights and this camera guy in their faces as they enter the ring. Round 1 he gets demolished and the fight is stopped. Then he had to go to the hospital. He asked my wife if we could stop at mucho burrito on the way.
There’s no way anyone could make this stuff up, and if they could they’d make millions writing off-the-wall comedies.
You need to sell the movie rights to your life story. If not, you’re missing out on a lot of money .
While he lost the fights I think he won the war by not marrying your sister... I really think you guys could be the next trailer park boys.... Fantastic thread! You could just cut and paste it for your pitch to the networks...
