Heh, I got married at an intimate little gathering for about 160 of my ex-wife's relatives (thirty years ago, yesterday, as a matter of fact). She came from an enormous family. My family fit at two tables, although my brother had to sit with the polka band (don't ask). We were also alloted two tables for friends. One of the bridesmaids sewed her own gown, and my mother sewed the rest. There was a bridal shower, but no bachelor party.
Harrow: You didn't have to wound that man. Mal: Yeah, I know, it was just funny.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh, thank god the wedding discussion isn't completely over!
Oh, it will be back, don't you fret. I don't know about you other people, but I'm in another one in September, so there will be Things To Say, I'm sure...
In other wedding-related news, I was just at the dog park with a friend, who was talking to another dog owner who recognized her dog, and she said, "Oh, you've probably seen him here with my boyfriend..." I whispered to her, "You mean your husband, right??" Heh. They just got back from the honeymoon. She's still adjusting.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
At the last wedding I went to-- a couple months ago-- the bride, groom, best man, best friend of the bride (happy not to be a MoH) myself and Bob went to a strip club-- the night before. After the rehearsal dinner. All the guys received lap dances; the bride paid for the groom's. When it closed we raided the mini bar in our hotel room and the bride and groom left after the sun came up. These friends are the most chill hedonists I know.
Of course, I had a ridiculous hangover until about an hour before the wedding started, and I look like death in the photos, but still fun.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Some dicksmack here in town was feeding kittens to his pet alligator. He's in jail tonight on $72,000 bond after throwing the cat at animal control officers and for being a smart ass to the judge. He said he could do "anything he wanted, it's only a kitten."
By his mugshot, he looks too stupid to live.

Wait. What? Did you just say "feeding kittens to his pet alligator"?!?!??

Yup.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Did you just say "feeding kittens to his pet alligator"?!?!??
No.
Because no one would ever do that.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Now now -- maybe the alligator won them fair and square in a poker game.

It doesn't sound all that different from feeding live mice to pet snakes.

I'm looking for a local news link but it's just on network, not on the web yet.
Apparently, the guy's lawyer is comparing kittens to rats fed to snakes.
