Where to Read “How Not to Meet the Family” on The Digital Labyrinth

Updated

“How Not to Meet the Family” is a post on The Digital Labyrinth at somerandomstuff1.wordpress.com. The excerpt shown on the site presents it as the final story in a three-part series of true short stories, so the most direct route is to open the blog’s homepage and look for that post title.

What the post is

The story is a personal, humorous account of a partner meeting an extended family member. In the excerpt, the narrator explains that the series recounts “a hilarious, unbelievable and zany event” from their life, and that this instalment is the last of three. The family visit described involves the narrator’s sister, her boyfriend (called “Lachie” in the post), the narrator’s four-year-old niece, and an aunt (called “Jane”).

How to find it

  1. Go to somerandomstuff1.wordpress.com.
  2. On the homepage, scan the post titles for “How Not to Meet the Family: A True Story.”
  3. Open that post to read the full story.

If the post is no longer visible on the front page, use the blog’s archive or search function and enter the title or a distinctive phrase such as “How Not to Meet the Family.”

Finding the earlier parts

The excerpt identifies this as the final story in a three-part series but does not name the first two parts. To locate them, browse older posts in the blog archive around the date of this post, or search the site for “true story” and look for posts labelled as parts one and two.

What to expect from the site

The Digital Labyrinth is a personal blog rather than a news or reference site. The available page evidence shows first-person storytelling with a comic tone, including asides about the people involved and why names were changed. The site’s listed keywords include “premium,” but the excerpt does not state whether any content is behind a paywall or requires an account, so treat access as unconfirmed until you open the post.
