It would have been sweet to be the one displaying this wealth.
(I'm in love with this dress.)
Oh my god. What can it be? We're all doomed! Who's flying this thing!? Oh right, that would be me. Back to work.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I'm confused as to why wedding dresses are being discussed in the past tense. Don't people still wear them? Or did I make a big fashion faux pas?
FTR, several of my friends have worn their dresses/pants suits subsequently.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I thought that the white symbolized "debt free"
Whose debt to whom?
I'm confused as to why wedding dresses are being discussed in the past tense.
It's the history of wedding dresses, I'm discussing, not so much their current usage/symbology.
you could afford to have a white dress that you woudn't get much subsequent use out of
Was white not a worn colour, before it became traditional wedding wear? I mean, why not a yellow dress you wouldn't get much use out of? I thought that white formal these days was too tied to the wedding tradition -- but before it, what was the drawback?

My mother had her wedding dress made into a ball gown (not high society, but from an era where women of, uh, regular society wore long dresses much more often thant they seem to these days). And then, apparently, she disposed of it. Such sentiment. Well, her sentiment was all tied up with her husband and not the dress, I suppose. Which is nice and all, but I like the look of the dress from the pictures, and it'd be nice to have it.
There was a point somewhere in there. Maybe.
Love the dress in that link.

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
White wedding dress thingy: [link]
We're talking about the history of white dresses, hence the past tense.

Benches, or stools? My local one doesn't have those, but I was gonna look around.
I no longer need cocoa! Lee warmed my house with a couple boxes.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Heh, Sail, I hadn't actually gotten to that part yet. But now it's all good. That was The Slasher or whatever, the serial rapist. He'd already gotten Sean, for "correcting his work" and I figure that everyone knows they're partners, and he's done Sean already, so why would he go back?
