[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ugh! Just spoon some f$cking potatoes on the guy’s plate and be done with it.

Am I an insane person? Because more and more I’m finding that you all make no sense to me whatsoever. This post and your follow up commentary has taken more time than an entire lifetime of plopping down an extra helping of food on a relative’s plate when he asks for it. [/quote]

I would say maybe you are. It seems human nature to get something off your chest rather than keep doing it and festering anger. That's what OP is doing here, in addition to crowd sourcing possible tactful ways to maybe have it stop.

I would hope to God one of my children would be rude by asking to pass the shrimp so I could take a moment to explain slowly, for a child's developing mind, how "see, we pass the dishes clockwise, one by one as each person serves themselves or the one or two people beside them. See how Granny is serving herself shrimp, next she'll pass it to Dad, then Auntie, then you!" 
I imagine this would still go over FIL head though.[/quote]
