Ok that's just freaky.

This is creepy on so many levels. Two corpses getting married is bad enough, but being married to the guy who killed you? I think I speak for us all when I say EWWWWW!

And ppl though gays were a threat to marriage...

Of course this opens up the possibility of necrophiliacs getting married, since the long time wall stopping it was that a dead person can't consent to marriage.

 

[ThePhoenix]

There are way too many levels of "NO!" to this to be properly analyzed. I'm going to kick the next person who says all cultures are equal, just different.

 

[Echoes Peak]

Umm, are they going to have a reception afterwards?

The groom's corpse would be dressed in a cream suit and his bride's in a gown for the ceremony, at which a priest in the rural village of Ceres in Limpopo will bless the union before the two are buried, the Sowetan said.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

Oooohhhhh *shivers* gross!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"This does not mean the relationship has irretrievably broken down."

ummmm....I feel ill.....

 

[tulc]

Huh married and buried all in the same day. So...who gives away the bride?

I'm suprised someone hasn't come in here and started screaming "[bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse] SLIPPERY SLOPELOL KTHNX BYE" Must be 'cause it's so late.

 

[draper]

Will they serve cake?

And c'mon, they must think we're odd in some ways, too

Well I honestly think that consent will remain a prerequisite for marriage here in the United States for some time to come and a dead person can't consent to anything unless it was written in their will or something.

*imagines the two of them slowly floating up into Heaven and the bride whacking her husband with the bouquet of flowers*

Hehehe...

 

[brinny]

*pregnant woman is killed
*killer kills himself
*some morons take it upon themselves to 'bond' the murdered one with her killer for all eternity

it's not enough hell to die that way, eh? Let's make her suffering complete, adding insult to injury.

Wow, it's reassuring to know that at her unfortunate demise this woman is famous. At least she can bring a few laughs to the rest of us.

 

[brinny]

ok I'm calmer now....didn't mean to come off harshly or let my sarcasm escape *beats it down* ...it was an incredibly twisted thing these people did....I don't care what 'culture' they are entrenched in.

Nevertheless I'm sorry if I 'killed' the thread.

 

[brinny]

Wow! I've been looking for this thread. I'm paying homage to the po' thing since I killed it.

"The document you requested is not found. It may have expired."

Wow. Looks like everything related to this story is dying....
