What a weenie.

Sorry if I missed discussion of this in this thread, because I'm not through everything yet, but by this logic, heterosexual people that can't reproduce ALSO should not be allowed to marry

Actually, not too long ago, this was true. The Catholic church wouldn't marry you if one or both couldn't have children. A physical was necessary to get a license.

It's more than lame---because they not only waited until mid-february to do so, but waited until a FFF brought it up.

From what I remember, everyone was talking about how sad and horrific it was, and how they felt bad for his family who probably hadn't even been notified but his pictures/video were everywhere. And she kept posting about being at the hospital where he might end up, and how there were choppers there, etc. In the context of everything else, it just seemed a bit... AW-ish. Plus not very confidential if he did end up as a patient there.

Re: Brimcleod:

I'm just trying to tone up a little. I've actually been gaining weight because of the birth control I'm on. But losing weight would be incredibly unhealthy for me. My BMI is way below normal, and my doctors are always telling me to eat more. If I ate any more my stomach would probably explode! I eat all the time! haha.

Oh. Um, poor you.

And if memory serves, she posted something ridiculous here and then came back the next day to post something else. Everyone was like, "Um, we have better memories than goldfish, you know."

Her personality = fail.

How can a physical prove whether you are able to have children. Do they show infertility??

Posted by kate51485[/QUOTE]

Well, they really can be that shitty. We've had two couples/families send RSVP's to our wedding (one including a really long letter about why they couldn't make it) that have just never shown up. I believe they sent them, they've just gone MIA. I also sent my sister a card congratulating her on her NCLEX exams 4 months ago---to a town two hours away, and she never got it. So, it's possible. But sending something twice, and having it go MIA both times? That's a little less plausible.

salt78 · February 2010

What Beatles said. She was all "I hear the choppers, it's probably him coming here now" and "oh I think the newscasters are here to talk about it". If it were just one post it would have been one thing, but she just kept talking about it when no one was asking her to elaborate. It made me feel weird.

Posted by aMrsin09[/QUOTE]

I actually think it's fine for a church to require whatever they want for a religious ceremony. I don't think it's ok for the government to care about anything other than to be sure both parties are of legal age, are not married to anyone else, and are not closer blood relation than first cousins.

MeaghanandMichael · February 2010

I agree with you Brie on Pooh's sig.

I also find Pooh to be towing the party line far too ethusiastically recently. It is like she learned which responses people say on here and started vehemently using them. This was most evident to me in the thread about Friday night weddings in which I was saying how I felt it was important to many people to have their guests witness their ceremony. She leaped on me to say that all you need to have a wedding is an officiant and a B&G. Um, yeah, I know. Duh.

jasmineh7777 · February 2010

J&K, you really don't tell your priest if you don't want kids. Or rather, if you tell them then you are not allowed to be married in the church.

deepcovejackie · February 2010

I must just interject this right now, to clairfy. I work at the designated trauma center for the olympics. It's in no way a violation of confidentiality to say that I was hearing the helicopters bringing him here. It was announced on the news that they brought him to this facility.

ohwhynot · February 2010

Well, duh, if you can't have children, then what's the point of having sex?!? And if you're Catholic, you can only have sex if you're married, so what's the point of marrying someone? Makes perfect sense to me.

Just as an aside, and probably way too much information, but when I had my tubes tied my doctor had to go get special permission from the (Catholic) hospital's board of directors in order to perform the surgery there.

I think the point everyone is making is that you kept offering information like this, and following it up with more information like this--when not a single person was requesting said information.

I think you're missing the point. They aren't saying you were breaking confidentiality. They're saying it was creepy that you were bragging about being there while this guy was dying. At least that's what I'm reading anyway.

That's bogus Rach. Come to think of it I do remember you mentioning the sister card. I guess I've just been lucky! Whatever the SS sent must have been a hot ticket item that postmen wanted to steal!

And re: Jackie, that is a little peculiar I suppose. Maybe she was just excited -- ? not the best word -- that she was in the loop of a pretty major current event. I dunno.

And aMrs, I can understand that (um, in a way), but not for civil marriage. Totally different than a religious marriage. I could make up a religion and say ONLY same-sex marriages will be recognized, but the government shouldn't do anything of the sort.
