No, because I wasn't buying her. Also no because I don't think I could make it through the conversation without him knowing I don't take him seriously. I tried my best to maintain my composure when he gave me the "she's my daughter and if you hurt her.." speech at my wedding but I started laughing.

Never even knew it was a thing until relatively recently. Bizarre as gently caress. Most marriage ritual is bizarre as gently caress and it seems like I learn all kinds of things I was "supposed" to have done but never even knew it was a thing.

Also yeah, and what if he says no? Does it matter? Not really. If anyone finds the Purity rings and Purity Balls creepy but not the whole "ask the father permission to marry" thing creepy they're dumb. Captain Candiru fucked around with this message at 17:01 on Feb 22, 2015 |

Did you spend most of your life bumping your helmet against a wall because this poo poo is absolutely 100% common knowledge as you can see by this thread and anything else on the subject What other perfectly normal and widely referenced marriage customs that come up in every movie, sitcom, novel and conversation about marriage are you saying you didn't know about

Captain Candiru posted:Liars in GBS!?! HOLY poo poo. I dunno I mean people might be fibbing about being married or engaged or telling stories about imaginary in-laws for comedy purposes in this thread but I don't think that's the same as you telling insecurity-fueled kiddie-pool porky pies about how you never heard of this thing and don't give a gently caress about it. I mean, it was the specific quality of "due to my autism I have no clue what real human beings find credible, I guess I'll haul off with something that makes me sound cool" retarded bullshit in your posting that really caught my attention like a big red flashing light, and trying to pass it off as 'lol I was joking' was even worse. Thanks for at least getting around to admitting it, though. Just, you know, in the future, remember you ain't got to lie to kick it plus you actually suck at it.
