Apart from the outrageous items on the list which included a car, cow, wine, gallons of oil, a house and some amount of money, what infuriated many was the caveat at the end of the list.

It was typed in uppercase that there was a deadline for those items to be provided. The in-laws graciously gave the end of April as the deadline.
