Mixah was right, that does look like me.
Don’t say shit like that, man. I don’t ever want to have make that kind of decision.
TIS’ Anxiety - God forbid I somehow meet Vanessa Morgan by happenstance and she becomes attracted to me…
TIS’ Dick - … which wouldn’t be surprising at all.
TIS’ - Heart - And then she tells her handlers…
TIS’ Brain - …because all celebrities have handlers
Heart - … that she wants to meet me backstage just to talk about some stuff.
Brain - what “stuff?”
Dick - By the time her handler got to the word “stuff” we probably already be backstage. I’m pretty sure I’d leave a cumstained trail of wake behind me too.
Heart - shut up Dick. You’re not the boss of us. That shit stopped when we got married.
Dick - [anakin]** You underestimate my new powers!**[/anakin]
This has been THE INVINCIBLE SWORDSMAN saying:
See what you just started?
EGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Im going to be sick.
Nearly every anti-marriage person will end up married or dying alone. Agreed?
Then there are the “old hippy couples.” Nothing wrong with that.
Put it this way, if you’re tepid at all about getting married to the person you’re thinking of settling down with, then don’t waste anybodies time and just don’t do it; Leave it for the rest of us who never gave it a second thought at all and are busy living happily ever after. You’re just giving Marriage a bad name
That may work just fine for you, but none of those is a reason specifically to get married, unless you consider it reason enough to have no active reason not to. People take it as a given that marriage is just what people do when they fit those criteria, which is based more on tradition than rationality.
Damn straight willy.
My cousin got married, I lost an entire fucking day, and they got divorced 6 months later. Never have I been so pissed in my entire life.
If losing an entire day to a wedding celebration is the worst you’ve ever been pissed at, I envy how absolutely amazing your life must be.
You say that like it’s a bad thing. Only reason I want people around me when I die is so my last words can be how I always hated all their jack asses, and I put them all in the will.
lol, It takes a lot to get me mad and I mean a lot.
Something about making me waste a day for some of the most boring shit ever and them getting a divorced after 6 months just made me go into a blind rage.
Who is that Boel?
And whats to say that just because you’re not married, that you’re alone? And for that matter whats wrong with being alone? People suck for the most part, alone has a lot of calming attributes to it…like peace.
it faye reagan/valentine the person bitter ol shaft was trying to imply had genital warts
Just as I thought.
TIS’ insane.
(I can’t unsee that mental image of a penis as Anakin, especially since Darth Vader’s helmet has always been kinda phallic–then again, most helmets are.)
Vanessa Morgan? That name sounds…familiar. And I can’t remember the face or body that goes with it or why I’ve even heard it in the first place, TIS aside.
Regardless, I don’t think I want to remember either.

[Warning: Incoming rant]
I only agree because it’s a trick question given that dying alone covers almost everyone, whether they were unmarried or married at the time of their death. Seriously, even realizing that most people don’t think most things through worth a damn, I still never understood the whole “marriage means you won’t die alone!” mentality or, at least, why the hell it seems to persist utterly unresisted.
Marriage will stop you from being alone for a while, perhaps, at least physically. Sure. That I will grant.
However, marriage does nothing to keep one spouse from dying before the other, leaving the widower to either soldier on in pain and misery pining after what once was and can never be again (unless you married a twin, maybe) or just kill themselves and get it over with already. So unless you’re planning to either commit murder-suicide with your spouse, group suicide with your spouse, get involved in a fatal accident with your spouse or get caught in at least moderately disaster, then you’re going to die alone. Period.
Marriage’s whole self-importance (in the way that [modern] society pushes it) is what turns me off the idea even more. To think that fucking death suddenly cares about whether you’re married or not. Yeah, right.
Of course, this is answering your bullshit question–don’t mistake me calling it bullshit for saying that’s what you personally intended, Vynce, since this is more a societal thing and you seem like a cool enough guy–with the erroneous implication that “unmarried = alone”. If we’re talking about actually “alone” alone, as in no one (who cares) is actually around when you die, then…that I completely disagree with that sentiment even if it does inevitably happen to some people. This is still also purposefully ignoring the grounds that anti-marriage people actually have, you know, convictions due to how baseless that is–married people don’t have a monopoly on morality, no one does; I’m pretty sure a good majority of them would/will actually remain against marriage even if they got into a relationship at all.
Anyway, quite a few people die surrounded by people they care for, whether friends or family (ancestors or descendants). I’m not sure why these people automatically don’t count all of a sudden just because you weren’t fucking them.
Even with the “nothing wrong with that” line, this is also insulting since marriage does nothing to make a relationship anymore legitimate except in the eyes of the law and, supposedly, whatever god(s) and/or goddess(es) you believe in; it’s probably because “nothing wrong with that” comes off as condescending (at least with the above implications I pointed out).
If we were solely going by the law to determine what’s legitimate in day-to-day life, then in a lot of places, even now, would let you get away with some truly atrocious shit, especially to minorities that no longer count or just aren’t protected because they’re suddenly not people (or person enough) even though that defies all sensibility and decency otherwise.
Pretty sure even a lawyer like UltraDavid would tell you solely relying on the law to determine the legitimacy of every single thing in every day life would be abominable. A lot of times law isn’t determined by what’s “right”, merely by who can argue best.
This.
Also this.
Fuck the law, fuck some fake god, fuck other people looking in. Marriage is a commitment to a person: the one you marry. If you’re not willing to give them that commitment, then your relationship isn’t as good as those of us who are willing to*. You may not care about being alone, and that’s fine more power to you, nobody should feel obligated to get married just for the hell of it. But nobody should feel obligated to avoid marriage just for the hell of it either, it’s not that clear cut
*except the stupid fucks that get married without knowing what they’re getting into, fuck those idiots
*this I tell ya brotherrrrrrrrrrrrr *
ya can’t have one without the otherrrr
So the only way to be in a fully commited relationship is to get married, otherwise that relationship is less than? Bullshit. Plain and simple.
It’s not fully committed unless you take the final step, which is marriage; it just means you’re holding back because you’re not 100% sure about it. Definitely not bullshit. You’re just leaving yourself an out because you’re not fully committed.
Who says you’re not fully committed? The fact you can bail on marriage after the fact invalidates it’s whole status as an unbreakable commitment. You’re really no more commited then people who live together.
You’re an idiot. I’m supposed to have some ceremony to prove that I’m committed to a relationship? And if I decided to never take part in such an act I’m afraid of commitment? I can’t be committed to a relationship without marriage? Really? How?
