I heard that when gay marriage became legal, terrible things would happen.

Terrible things, like dogs and cats living together.

Well, I dozed off on the couch for an hour, and when I woke up it was raining cats and dogs! OH MY GAWD! The plagues have started!!!

Was to exemplify in glaring contract how miserable the majority of the marriages of their most vocal opponents are/were.

"Raoul and Doug are always holding hands. You wouldn't even hug me at last week's Hoedown for Jesus." sort of thing.

After 40 years with the same man, I guess my marriage won't be undermined after all. Damn gays! Now I have to live with him till death do us part. Do I need a sarcasm tag here?

nearly 11 years here in Mass.

Still waiting for my state to detach itself and fall into the ocean, drowning everyone

Although Boston did get smited? smoted? smitten? this past winter with some nasty snowstorms which were the worst we've seen since the 70s, way before gay marriage was even legal here.

April 1, 2001. Did someone with a wicked sense of humour choose that date?

First country in the world to do so.

Since then, it's been natural disaster after natural disaster. Not to mention the zombie invasion.

Two things have to happen before dogs and cats start living together: gay marriage has to become legal AND someone has to bring a pool table into the community. When that happens, dogs and cats will start living together AND our young boys will start memorizing jokes from Captain Billy's Whiz Bang!

I haven't heard of any mass drought relief in California lately, so I take it the right wing Republicans of Southern California haven't budged on their views of equal marriage rights yet?

have to be ready to learn how not to lead.

I looking forward for a mega-blow out of pure win. I imagine they'll be a trapeze, the cake will be deliciously fabulous & the music will be incredible. I need to start making more gay friends.
