That's about as romantic as a tax audit. Fishbone -- and how! I think just about any Tom, Dick, or Gordon would fishbone this. And what do the two partners do for the kiss? Honestly! Where DID you leave your heart? |
|
|
Ponytail fasteners with the "Superman" S on them? :) |
|
|
Then all you need is the fufme drive to consummate the marriage, huh? |
|
|
Click the linky.. on second thought, it's probably better not to.. |
|
|
Lycos chat operates a system whereby members who entered an age over eighteen can get 'virtually married', or something like that anyway. |
|
|
"Do you, fishbone, take thee, internet marriage, to be your lawful wedded husband?" |
|
|
I said, on second thought, it's probably better not to.. |
|
|
So, they go in a spare drive slot?? God, imagine having a PC between your legs... I suppose tower users are at an advantage... and is that an *eject* button? I'll stop. What a sick world we live in.... |
|
|
this might actually come about for marriages of convenience. my tenth husband from eastern Europe (what was his name now?) |
|
|
The resurrected Sparki is obviously an imposter. There has been not a single reference to the Farrelly Brothers in this latest run. |
|
|
I was the Minister for a shotgun wedding in a Chat room once. |
|
|
were you defrocked before or after? |
|
|
It would be lovely, instead of a divorce, to be able to hit the "Delete" key.... |
|

*they* tell me it was a very pretty frock and you borrowed Afro's feather boa. I wish I could have been there. Are there photos at all? |

Marriage.

Just look at the username...sickideas123, it explains it all. |

Paraphrased: "The problem with marriage is it is too easy to get into and too difficult to get out of. It should be the other way around." |
|
|
Well I'm voting for this. I've never really seen why marriage should have any status over other forms of relationship so this would be a great way of undermining it. Croissant. |
|
|
I'm voting for it, too. The idea doesn't state that you'd HAVE to get married this way, only that you could if you wanted to. I can see why someone might not want to get married this way themselves, but why would anyone oppose other people using this method? |
|
|
...because if you're going to spend the rest of your life with someone, it kinda makes sense for you both to be in the same room (not chat room) at the same time and, you know, commit to each other in person.
I mean, if you're not even going to take the time to commit to each other in person, why even get married in the first place? |
|
|
Why get married when there are devices such as the one presented in the link...like mom always said "why buy the cow when you could just buy a sexual disk drive for virtual sex"...or something to that effect |
|
|
I really hope that thing has some sort of easy-clean system. |
|
|
*Ray runs off to delete his 'cellphone kissing-lips attachment' before thcgenius sees it. |
|
|
I think if people want to get married over the internet its there problem who are we to judge... |
|
|
...its there problem who are we to judge... |
|
|
Good point...so how'd you come to the conclusions that (a) it's a problem; (b) that it's theirs; (c) that we shouldn't judge; (d) that it's your duty to tell us we shouldn't judge? |
|
|
Two links added, this is pretty much baked. But it's nauseating. Fish. |

You know it's been a long day when you can hear tomorrow talking. |
|
|
But will we permit persons of the same OS to marry? |
|
|
marriage over the internet is not legal and binding. although it could be taken as the first step, i would still prefer the real thing, including the consummation of the marriage. |
|
|
Heh! Baked. Not only do i have an internet wife but I've got an internet son as well. Technology is such a wonderful thing! I wonder how they're getting on? |
|
|
Hah Ha HA! google thee to Germany! |
|
|
I think you've kinda sucked the fun and the feeling out of marriage there. Granted you can learn alot about someone over the net, but marriage? [-] |
|
|
Those of you voting against this idea are probably against same-sex and interracial marriages as well. You make me sick. |
|
|
It's that sort of narrow-minded generalisation, based on no evidence whatsoever, that we can well do without. |
|
|
yeah, but you could have passed him a bucket. |
|
|
would you like a fish? the-air waaffer thin!(I hadn't voted until: |
|
|
//probably against same-sex and interracial marriages // |
|
|
I sure am, just don't tell my wife - I'd not survive <sarcasm alert>.) |
|
|
Whew, good thing I searched. I was gonna call it "A nice day for a Web Wedding". Damn, where's that HB rimshot soundbite option again? |
|
|
In the annos DrBob succinctly made a point that I would have belabored with three paragraphs. (watch out, I'm gonna do it anyway). |
|
|
So how 'bout it? I'd even put wedding/divorce options in vending machines in every mall, city hall, gas pump, fast food drive-up menu board, and airport. |
|
|
The idea being to dilute this nonsense to the point where it eventually, finally, most deservedly, loses all the misguided and warped vestige of legitimacy it has accumulated over the centuries. |
|
|
What cracked pot sense of logic inspires the (typically conservative) libertarian to demand freedom from a government's claims on his actions, then marches the next day in the street with a placard exhorting that same government to strengthen the institution of marriage through federal legislation? Wha????? I know, it's the homophobia talkin' there, (and the state's rights miscegenists.. and at least a few misogynists if you want to dig a little deeper) but those can't account for such near unanimity here. Somehow we who think the government should have no business at all in recognizing any and all forms of union between consenting adults are astonishingly few. It's tatamount to suggesting anarchy to even bring it up in conversation. And it is not at all suggesting anarchy! |
|
|
Marriage via web. And vending machines. And certificates in CrackerJack boxes. Let's get over it. |
