You Can (un)Kiss The Bride

The other day, actually two days ago at the gym when almost everybody was nearing exhaustion one of my friends started a conversation about getting married. Now, you know you'll hear a bunch of shit if unmarried people try to interrogate an institution they only read about in O Magazine, hear about in the Thobela FM dramas and watch on Desperate Housewives.

Now this other dude said that if someone is brave enough to invite the whole community to his wedding he should be brave enough to invite them to the divorce and stage it the same way he did hid union. I protested that when getting married you invite people to come and share in your happiness and that melancholy is not something you want to share with others.

He said that the same way the pastor is invited to make a man and a woman whole he should be invited to declare them unwhole. So, you see the women at the gym bought into this conversation and asked how do you make things unwhole when making them whole was easy. 'Simply put how do you unscramble an omelette?'

The dude who pitched the proposal said the two should go back to church infront of the congregation and remove the rings from each other, put them back in the vase and hand them to the church to auction and raise some cash for renovations. Then they must stick their tongues int each other's mouth and the pastor say, 'you can unkiss the bride', at which they shall pull back and part ways. Sort of like turning back the hands of time (ala R.Kelly's song)

Now someone asked why should the engagement ring be given to the church as well given that engagements don't happen in church, to which some dude asked if darkies still did engagements.
'Yeah, they do, that's why you find three rings on the bride's fingers', responded a chick. To this some guy said, 'these days we don't put rings as a form of engagement, we impregnate you and you know you are taken. We engage you with a baby'. Hahahahaha! That was funny. It was funny then and yesterday at the gym the guys were still cracking jokes about it.

Haha!
