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

BizarreTalking to my new Norwegian girlfriend a few years ago (she is now my wife), and I asked her about her folks. She said her dad’s tall, got dark hair, and is an engineer who is now more involved in management, while her mum is short and works with handicapped children. Which is exactly the same as my parents.
Just goes to show that you tend to go for people with similar backgrounds, even if they are of a different nationality.
When they met they got on like a house on fire, almost as friendly as their respective offspring.
