[username0022]

I agree. Be yourself and all should be fine. Whatever you do, don't fart in front of them...

I know that but, I never make a good first impression I just want her family to know that I am normal and not a weirdo I mean getting caught in a bow down limbo its not that fun!....thanks for the advice!

[KillYouWithMyMind]

definitely be yourself but ill also add be as polite as possible. japanese people are incredibly polite so i assume this would be the case for your future family. id pull out all the stops and treat them like royalty.

dont forget to bow!

I would definitely wear a Wookie costume, or dress up like a Samurai. If you really wanna make an impression, wear a Pearl Harbor memorial costume.

Get a hair cut.

Be yourself and just have manners.

No need for a "costume." That's just ridiculous.

You're marrying her, not her family.

I'm in favor of the Samurai outfit. You should also set up the Ninja Warrior obstacle course in a room in your house.

Make them all dinner. Gather them around the table, and using an electric skillet make "choppy choppy" noises and yell a lot.....maybe toss an egg in the air and catch it with the spatula

This. And just clean yourself up. Try to look nice. It's a special occasion.

And be yourself.

Good luck.

Dude, I'm totally surprised that you aren't telling this guy that he's making a huge mistake by getting married. Is this a new, more marriage-friendly P.O.E.?

Thank you guys!

Um, have you tried asking your fiance? I mean, she would know the customs best, and what standards her family holds to. She would know the do's and don'ts better than a bunch of random people on the internet.

Just as long as the sake isn't flowing like mud around there, I think a good time is to be had by all.

Hey S7ar......when my Jedi mindtricks finally work on you and I trick you into e-marrying me......when you bring your parents to Iowa I hope they appreciate the time it took to completely cover myself with tiny pieces of colored tissue paper .....and why Im standing there with a mouthful of candy and a big stick.

I think Im gonna be a really BIG hit

I wanted to put some costumes up to add to the Japanese decor, I mean my house looks pretty Japanese as it is and since I have some mannequins I thought I might use them...BTW dont correct anyone if u also make mistakes while typing.

[username0022]

hahahaha!

Jen you are too much!

Note: I like sour candies.
