How would you consumate it?
Who would be the best man and who would give Hzl away?
Who would keep yakko from neffing through the ceremony?
Who would prevent RossMan and Spanky from conducting deals when the preacher mod asks if anyone has any objections?

So many questions... :D

Naming the kids should prove interesting :)

Their children should be named after processors or Moonbeam.

Yeah 25 cents from the local gum drop machine but I think Xerox Man (soon to be whipped) is a classier kinda guy. He'll probably upgrade to the $1 store :D

You can find better deals than that, can't you? :)

I can so see this when RossMan gets married (or maybe it happened already):

Me: Hi Ross. How much did you pay for that ring?
Ross: I didn't. In fact, I made 100 bucks during the process. If you are wondering about the value of the ring, it's worth $1200.
(then he babbles on all the gift certifications, MIR, etc etc on how he did so)

:D

If Linuxboy gives the eulogy we'd have to have bathroom breaks


Yeah I was reading that thinking, phew, does he have a good point ! I mean that linuxboy chap would probably start talking about happiness or love or all this twisted and lengthy philosophical mumbo jumbo saying something like this:

With God's grace here and in the hereafter joyously do we share in your day. I say we share in your joy because it is ours and because you have invited us. I say we come with God's grace because this is a blessed union, made to endure in good times and in bad. I can tell you many well-wishings, and of the state of my heart or of my mind basking in your warmth but you've heard them before and doubtless many others shall offer congratulations and gifts. You two are one, made by luck or fate or choice or Providence, it matters not as this feast is. What does matter is two-made-one is a sacred trust and a sacred promise often forgotten in a modern culture and if remembered, for show only. It cannot be broken, but requires work, the results of which are a mixture of milk and honey sweetly drunk at morning's dew. Grow young together. Grow so young and full of life and love and bliss that it disgusts people who look not with a smidgeon of jealousy. Grow until you can say we are between You and I, the place just after You end and I begin. Until I go to sleep and close your eyes saying 'goodnight' to myself. And until your pains are my pains, and likewise the joys. This is my eulogy and laude, made with a sharing of your joy.

I daresay, something that lengthy and boring would require at the very minimum two, fifteen-minute intermissions.


the whole world's a stage


Cheers ! :)

4) Are the Mods ordained ministers?

I don't know, but I am, thanks to AT Hot Deals forum. If you give me 19.95 I can get you a marriage certificate and everything ;) Oh yeah, don't OC the bed, it just isn't safe.

You'll be single for life if you stick around here Ryan ;)

You're right... must get off computer....

1) Does the bride take the groom's last name? IE, if I married Xerox Man would I become hzl_eyed_grl_man?

2) If we send an invitation to each and every forum member, do we get virtual gifts or real gifts?

3) Being as AT was the way we met - is there some sort of thanks we should give to Anand . . . IE, naming rights of our first born son? And would said naming rights require royalties to be paid?

4) Are the Mods ordained ministers?

5) If Xerox gets banned for being his smart-ass self, can I still use his subscriber account?

6) Will we be required to have the marriage live, via webcam? If we do....should we charge for the viewing?

7) Will we be allowed to sell wedding night videos (a la Tonya Harding) on FS/FT?

8) AMD rings or Intel rings?

9) Inside those rings, do we get "Is suck" or "OMG AIEEEEE NO!!!!O!!!O!O!!!!!" inscribed?

10) Do we get our honeymoon through the Hot Deals Forum?

And finally...... Should we overclock the vibrating bed in the honeymoon suite?

HAHA! Clever!!!

Good luck with the marriage! Let the battle for bandwidth begin!;)

Sheesh, you guys, don't jump the gun. ;)

We've got to see if we can live together without killing each other over sharing the computer first! :p

Besides, Hzl is an Intel user! <shudder> ;)
