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

Of course, I shall never wed seeing as Ray Toro has gone and married his actual fiance to whom he has been actually engaged for some time.

The nerve.

“Not dead yet!”

What possessed her to pull that kind of stunt?

The fact that she's completely cracked. Also insanely jealous-- they eloped and didn't tell anyone because she was knocked up, so they never did the wedding thing and it made her nuts that we did.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Co-writer Sam thinks he could beat me in a fight just because men are stronger.

I so want to get him in a ring and punch him in the face.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I remember the Big Drama that resulted when my SIL's cousin's daughter came to their wedding dressed in a rather low-cut red party dress, and all of her traditional Italian female relatives hit the roof over her "wild ways." I think SIL was just relieved that her sister who had cut off all contact with the family years before didn't show up to create even more drama.

But women are more treacherous. And liable to fight dirty.

His delusions are kind of charming.

This is what I'm saying!

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

(And isn't it pathetic that I can quote that from memory?)

No! Why do you think I mentioned it? I have that whole damned section burned on my memory.

I'm also fond of Jo and Prof. Bhaer's betrothal.

She also created Big Drama at my wedding as well, by showing up in a white lace dress.

Some movie -- I *think* it was The Mirror Has Two Faces -- had a wedding scene, and before the ceremony, when everyone was milling around, the mother of the bride showed up in a tight, bright, sequined dress, and the bride (who was rather blinged-out herself, as is her right as the bride) said, "You're supposed to be the mother of the bride, not the OPENING ACT!!!" For years I was afraid my mom would pull that at my wedding. Now, ironically, she's more or less over her flashy ways, and I'll probably never get married. What a waste of my mom's newly-found sensibility.
