Childish memories

Some childish things have been happening around me lately and it got me thinkin' of grade school threats. I'm talking about the biggest threat a third or fourth grader could think of at their age. I remember it being "oh yeah?! Well, you are not invited to my birthday!" The only reply to that is "....Well....SO!"
I can't really say that anymore, I'm 23. So, what do you say now? I've actually thought about this, in depth. You can't do the b-day one because if it's in a public place, like a bar, almost anyone can show up. If it's at your house, they could still find a way to crash it, especially if all are drunk. What about your wedding? "You're not invited to my totally awesome wedding!" I think that works. Who doesn't love weddings? Free food and booze, a DJ, dancing and just a blast all around. Sure, you have to buy a gift but there are usually some reasonably priced items on the registry. "What about party crashes," you may ask. Easy, no body gets in without an invite, and why not hire some extra security if you really hate the person you don't want to invite. You've already spent thousands on a huge party, so what's another couple hundred? Or some teenage family members who will do it for cheap.
I think I will use that threat from now on. Of course I'll have to wait until I have a wedding to plan....or not.
