Take my Mother-in-law...There's a reason there are so many bad jokes about mothers-in-law. You don't choose them, they just come along as emotional baggage with your object of affection. I'm lucky, my m-i-l is lovely*, but don't let that put you off telling us how mad your in-laws really are.
*No, really

Father In Law stories ?My mother-in-law is nice as pie. Lovely lady and I won't have a word said against her.
My father-in-law is also v. nice. Mild-mannered accountant with thinning grey hair and thick glasses. He loves cricket, and loves lecturing me on pensions. Marvellous and very boring.
But don't get him angry: you wouldn't like it when he's angry.
Exhibit A:
He started a fight at my wedding. for no reason. With one of his son's friends.
Exhibit B:
We were staying in a nice hotel. He was asked politely to move the car. When they said they couldn't do it for him as they weren't insured on his car, he responded by flying into rage and tearing up pieces of paper on the lobby desk.
Exhibit C:
When Mrs Pappers was dumped by an earlier ex-b/f the F-i-l responded by having a quiet word with her brother and offering him money & alibi to get his friends to 'have a chat' with the ex-b/f to ensure he learns his lesson.
It's the quiet ones you have to watch out for.
