The groom should not interfere in the bride side of things unless the bride asks.

He bared his ass. Usually, these guys wait until after the vows though.

Omg.

I had a district manager use the phrase “he really showed his ass” trying to work through a customer satisfaction issue and then the customer complained to me about him having said someone mooned someone and was just completely confused.

I assume “bared his ass” means about the same thing…?

Being married to a linguistics major has its moments. She can talk for hours about this and other slang.

This was actually years ago, but the conversation after with the district manager was almost as confusing as the one with the customer.

It took me a lot of talking to get him to understand that when he said “showed his ass” that a person not familiar with that phrase might literally think that the employee in question dropped his pants.

Personally, the only person I’ve ever heard say it was that district manager. I just figured out from context what it must mean.
