Oh, Scrappy! I hope!
You'd think it was snowpocalypse part deux!
We just haven't had a proper snowfall in too many years. People are getting soft.
Ah, yes, of course. The gypsies, they gave you your soul. The gypsies are filthy people. Ptui! We shall speak of them no more.

Jilli, if a close friend was having a very traditional wedding and asked you to be in it and wear a very traditional dress, would you accept?
Yes, absolutely. I just can't think of any of my friends who *would* have a very traditional wedding.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Susan, if you haven't already done so, you must see that xkcd in the original context: the hover text makes it even better (as it does most days) [link]

Randall Munroe is the first great hover-text artist.

shrift, does it have to be from David's?
I love this dress from J. Crew (in fact, I love J. Crew's special occasion collections!) But it doesn't come in Marine. Still v. v. pretty.

If I ever have a wedding I think I'd like all groomsmen and maids to wear matching zoot suits.
Also, possibly to ride in on unicorns given the likelihood of it actually happening.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Ooh, that is a very pretty dress, Kat, and entirely shrift-worthy. And wow, almost the whole collection is rather nifty.
This one, though? Nice enough, but it doesn't look like it'd be terribly flattering on anyone over an A cup and it definitely doesn't look like $2000 worth of dress.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
You know what I want in wedding-wear? Sleeves. WTF, fashion trends? Isn't it time for sleeves to come back in??
