[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just stay detached and observe their antics.[/quote] This. Think of ridiculous things that have been said in the past. Play a game where you "win" anytime someone one ups, or name drops, or says something snooty. You are an anthropologist observing a strange species of person and you must engage lightly and not interfere with their natural course of events. Making it a game is much more fun. I do this with my inlaws. How soon until MIL complains about the food? How soon until SIL blatantly ignores someone for her phone screen? How long until FIL mentions his weight and/or his diet? These things used to irritate me, but now I find them pretty amusing.[/quote]
