Rhyno posted:I ain't made of money. Free beer and wine though. We did about 3 drafts of a guest list with a certain number in mind. When we were nearing a final draft and needed to get rid of a few names we tried to figure out who would cause drama and didn't invite them. It wasn't done because of leanings but in one case my groomsman and his girlfriend were coming so we decided not to invite his ex-wife, even though I knew her longer than her ex-husband. Stuff like that. Drafts for guest lists are a great idea.

Stuff like that. Drafts for guest lists are a great idea. We did the same, it was not easy narrowing it down when we made the final draft. Hilariously the one who we were back and forth on multiple times hit me up with some bullshit about not knowing the future so he took care of that for us. We'd been friends for 20 years but he finally pushed it too far with his antics. We'd really only invited him because we figured he'd churn up a shitstorm and crash.

Rhyno posted:don't invite lots of people to your wedding. This is basically why we didn't get married. We could invite a handful of people, or we could invite 150-ish, but we couldn't work out a way to have somewhere in between.

I've been to 30 guest weddings with no wedding party and 300 guest weddings with a dozen bridesmaids and groomsmen. We're at just under 150 I think but I figure 10% of the people who RSVPed won't show up. Our wedding party isn't enormous but when you factor in spouse's and family it gets a bit out of hand.

Smallest one I've been to was under 10 people because it was a small-scale thing for visa reasons. Largest one was a loving huge thing in the Hamptons (ie the literal loving opposite side of the world) with a few hundred people. Spouses and families were our problem. I've got few relatives in Sydney but my girlfriend keeps in regular contact with her quite large extended family and between them and people who have invited us to their wedding the size was going to balloon out of control, especially given we would have been doing it more out of obligation than anything else. So we skipped it and just had a kid.

Smallest wedding I went to had 20 or 30 people and was an absolute blast. They had it at a nice little hotel in Baltimore by the water, and we all made sure to make full use of the open bar, and then followed it up with going out and hitting a karaoke bar.

Another wonderful comic book couple that gets forgotten: Wesley Dodds and Dian Belmont in Sandman Mystery Theatre. A noir period piece set in the late '30s and '40s, Dian was a remarkably modern woman, in every way Wesley's partner and equal. It was clear they were best friends as well as lovers, and always trusted each other and had each other's backs. Even when we saw them as elderly people in the modern DCU in James Robinson's Starman, they had physically aged but were exactly the same -- adventurers in every aspect of their lives, who had kept each other fresh and young over through the decades through love, friendship, curiosity, and mutual respect.

Not to interject my own wedding poo poo, but this is what my wife gave me for our first anniversary, which is the paper anniversary so she had it printed and framed. Some Norweigan dude on etsy traces comics then draws heads on them. And our cat is Cyclops because she sucks and is a dick. So I guess my favorite comic book romance is Wolverine and.... Rogue? People say why not Jean but my wife liked Rogue in the X-Men cartoon growing up.

Dating Wolverine is not what anyone wants to do. Being a young female protege tends to work out great (Kitty Pryde, Jubilee, X-23, Armor if anyone gave a poo poo about her after Whedon stopped writing comics) but I think Squirrel Girl is the only person to sleep with him without dying or having horrible government experiments done to them, and that was a throw away joke.
