Recently Jezebel posted a picture of a wedding shower invitation that someone had posted up on Reddit. No big deal. I mean, a wedding shower invite is pretty typical, right? Wrong. Apparently, there's this new 'thing' happening now called the 'Silent Shower'. What's a 'Silent' Shower', you ask? Well, it's basically the end of humanity as we know it. All of you women out there who cringe every time a birthday party invite for one of your kids comes home with directions to 'just give money' …
