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

My own motherSince the hubby doesn't post here, I figured I'd add some of the things my own mother's done that he's complained about, as a sort of balance?
She's outright asked him if he was gay. She then asked him what sort of man turns down a blow job, and why wasn't I getting enough nookie. (Honestly, mother!)
Other than that, my mother's the usual sort of nutter. She moved to New Zealand because that's where the "ley lines of her life" cross or somesuch... she's moving back to Alaska come Monday - apparently the school system in NZ sucks (she's a grade school teacher). She's also a touch paranoid and is constantly hyping to me that my in laws are going to screw me over any day now, and how I should legally protect myself and my rights to my daughter.
I wouldn't mind if she and my m-i-l just had a boxing match or summat. My mom spent years as a waitress/bartender/bouncer in some nasty biker bars like two decades ago - the m-i-l seems a total pushover in comparison. Come to think of it, I'd like to have a boxing match with the m-i-l, but I don't think that'd help matters much. Maybe if it all goes to hell marriage-wise, I'll just jam my fist in her face and see what happens next.
