Today, I overheard my mum tell my sister that she should make me a bridesmaid at her wedding. My sister scoffed, "She looks like Shamu, mum. I can't have THAT in my wedding pics." followed by laughter and my mum saying, "Touché." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my sister told me she didn’t want me in her wedding pictures because I looked fat in my bridesmaid's dress. FML
Today, I’m supposed to be a bridesmaid at my sister's wedding, but she doesn’t want me in the photos because I’m over a foot taller than her and the other bridesmaids, and it will look silly in the photos. I told her I won’t even bother attending, and mom actually took her side. FML
Today, my sister backed out of my wedding because it was becoming too much about me. After I begged her to reconsider, I had no choice but to pick a new bridesmaid. When my new bridesmaid posted on Facebook how excited she was, my sister commented, "See, you made HER feel special." FML
Today, my best friend informed me that I could not be her maid of honour because I "wasn't as pretty as the other bridesmaids" and she wanted her wedding photos to have "consistency". FML
Today, I was having lunch with my sister and my mother. While my mom was busy ordering food, my sister said to me, "Look at this!" then contorted her face so that she had a double chin. My mother looked over and said to her, "Stop making fun of your sister!" FML
Today, my best friend told me that I wasn't invited to her wedding, saying that I was too pretty and that I would outshine her at the ceremony. I laughed and said that she was being ridiculous. She eventually confessed the real reason why I wasn't invited: apparently I'm an annoying bitch. FML
Today, I overheard my boyfriend's future sister-in-law ask him not to bring me to the wedding. Apparently, me being so much shorter than everyone else is "embarrassing" and "would make the pictures look weird." FML
Today, my sister looked prettier in her bridesmaid's dress than I did in my wedding dress. I love her to bits, but she won the genetic lottery out of the two of us, so even on my wedding day I feel inferior. FML
Today, my mother thought it would be a wonderful idea to make me late for me own wedding. It wouldn't be so bad if she hadn't focused solely on my sister because my wedding didn't center on her. The sister in question snubbed being my maid of honor over a year ago, and just decided to randomly show up. FML
Today, my mom took a picture of me. All she could say about the picture was, "At least your sister is pretty." FML

Well, whales are some of the most intelligent animals out there, so you have that going for you. Which is apparently more than can be said for your mother and sister, if the only reason they don't want photos with you is because you're overweight. I rather agree with the suggestion that you get your sister a piece of Shamu memorabilia as a wedding gift. Sometimes just the realization that someone overheard a callous remark like that can be enough to kickstart karma. I also suggest leaving a note calling her a jellyfish. See if she understands it. If so, revenge. If not, you get to laugh about it behind her back, just as she tried to do to you.

I'd personally call her a shellfish. I agree with what you have said. People can be callous and you sometimes need to remind them that comments have real world effect. Obviously the sister values the look of the pictures over the memory of having someone they love there. I would not go, personally, and I would not bring it up again. Send the Shamu token.

That's just not cool. Family's family, and you shouldn't go saying stuff like that about anyone, especially your own sister.
