$35,000? At the risk of being accused of missing the point, I just cannot understand the extortion-level price tags attached to weddings these days. And this is still on the cheaper side—I believe I read somewhere that the average cost is closer to $50,000. And it just makes no sense to me. I’m glad she was able to…

They’re all in their 30s!! I don’t know why my fiance is still friends with this guy. I’m hoping this is the last straw.

I mentioned it (and assume other outlets did, too) because it’s one of those human interest questions that anyone would ask immediately after feeling bad for the bride and then marveling at her generosity.

The bride not being able to be there points out how truly painful it really is and somehow makes the generosity even more profound to me.

“Was that so hard?!”

That line being followed immediately by the video, I imagined that small person she’s holding saying “hypocrite” in a baby voice and now I can’t stop laughing.

I have, but I haven’t used it creepily yet. More as a joke “ha ha it’s a zipper!”

I had open-heart surgery as a toddler, 40 years ago. The scar is very prominent and I make no attempts to cover it. I’ve had it all my life so it’s not a traumatic thing for me, and I still will make up stuff like this sometimes because it’s not random person on the street’s business.

In related news, I have many fundamentalist religious friends who have never experienced an orgasm, and that’s just fiiiiiiiine. Because sex is just for making babies and for making sure your husband doesn’t stray.

Can you take a friend with you who can say “Woah, that’s totally inappropriate!”? Because I would be that friend.

I was put on hormonal birth control when I was ten to try to control my periods, which were occurring twice a month. Not so out of the realm of possibilities.

Yeah, but she’s a white woman with money, so it’s different.

I have been screaming this sentiment to everyone who will listen. The GOP wants Americans dumb, broke and stockpiling guns.

“A smaller person would comment here about glass houses.”

Gross.

Poor Bristol. She’s always the babymama, never the bride.

To me I thought the music was flat. And that should have been considered a sin since the movie was set in New Orleans, one of the greatest music cities in American history. They should have dropped Randy Newman who was a safe but oh, so, bland bet. And hired Wynton Marsalis who just bleeds jazz and New Orleans. Can…

My friend had her wedding dress made into baptismal gowns for her babies.

Pffft I don’t know if that’s a normal people problem. I can’t imagine any normal person spending a ton of money on a beautiful dress only to keep it in a bag that could be mistaken for trash.

I was coming here to say this exactly. Men taking selfies after being encouraged to = a real super fan trying to participate in the game activities. Women taking selfies after being encouraged to = vapid, vain, self-involved idiots, probably just at the game to flirt and ogle players.
