Wedding Dress? Go away and f… yourself!
Sometimes I wonder if I am stupid or if the others are. Usually it is me. But in some instances I can’t believe that my stance on things is the dumb one. Some examples convince me other people have to recalibrate.
Against my will I have noticed my mother is sometimes watching strange shows on classic TV. These scripted “reality” nonsense… where you can’t say if it is just a very bad script or if real people’s attitude and behavior are shown – or a mix of both.
The particular show (I won’t name it), is about women choosing their wedding dress (and family and friends go with them). Deadly serious they seem… and spent hours over hours. Describe what they want, what they don’t want. Try on this. Try on that. Worst part: These dresses sometimes cost more than 3000€. I could buy an upper class super bicycle with electric motor assistance for that. A bike that will last 20 years. And that is just the money for the bride’s dress for a single day. I'll choose the bike!
How much is the whole wedding gonna cost? Can’t you save that money and invest it in fixed-interest securities for your children?
I don’t get it. This makes no sense. Even for the usual “This is such an important day in my life!”. Will they get tarted up like that for the almost inevitable, even more expensive divorce as well? →
Geez. The fictional Betazoid from Star Trek: The Next Generation are a lot more clever!→
