Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

What did you miss?
What was with the dude in the mask that was about to do the slice and dice on Christian's face? There hadn't been anything about that up to about 2-3 episodes before the end. I got it that they thought he was going after Sean/Sean's family and he went for Christian instead. But who is he? What happened that they thought he was going for Sean?
eta: Sorry, ita. Fixed.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
A white wedding dress signifies that it is the bride's first marriage.
Ha ha. White symbolizes virginity.
I read that it was a display of wealth, as you'd have to be pretty well off to afford a dress you could only wear a few times.

A few times? I thought it just the once...

Back in the day, you were married in your best dress. Basically disposable clothing it pretty recent.

No, I meant if you buy a wedding dress, you only wear it the once.
Unless your best dress was also white -- otherwise I don't see the connection between white wedding dresses and a dress you only wear a few times.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman
In high society, a woman would often wear her wedding dress out as a formal dress at some point in her first year of marriage. and I thought that the white symbolized "debt free"

People used to wear their best dress, generally a brand new one. They'd wear it again after the wedding.
If you were really loaded, you could afford to have a white dress that you woudn't get much subsequent use out of. It was a display of wealth.
