"So when are you getting married???"
Recently, I've been hit with this IRKSOME Q three times over two consecutive days. I'm not even engaged yet!!
Wondering if any of you have suggestions on how to answer?
Many Thanks. :)

Speaking of twins. Want to talk about confusion. My friends mother is an identical twin. Her name is Leona. Her sister, Leonora.

It might be sooner if you posted some vital statistics, such as age, picture, current relationship status, and religious affiliation. Would also help get better answers than you have gotten so far. Would also help to know if you want to eventually get married.

I like to say "No, not married, but I AM sexually active". Whether it's true or not is irrelevant..it usually leaves them speechless. :)

So when are you getting married?
- "Is that a proposal? If so, I accept."
- "As soon as I find someone as great as me."
- "The state won't let me marry both of them at the same time."
- "As soon as you learn some tact."
- "When he!! gets an NHL franchise."
- "I don't need to, I just flush a couple of hundred dollars down the toilet every week."
- "As soon as there's a `C' battery shortage." (You did say you were a chick, right?)
- "I prefer to wait until AFTER I'm knocked up." (I'm going on the assumption you are a chick anyway.)
- "I have to wait until his 18th birthday."
- "Whenever he signs that life insurance policy."
- "As soon as he divorces Laura."
And, of course:
- "Whenever I learn his name."
That's just off the top of my head. If you want more, I can think about it.

My stock answer before I got married was, "the 5th of Never."
Of course, I knew that wasn't the case and I have now been married for almost twenty years to the same wonderful girlie girl.

Actually, part of the reason my brother's story struck me as so funny is that he (my brother) and I are twins. I am also the proud father of twin sons (who look remarkably similar to my brother and I at the same age).
It's remarkable how cruel some parents can be when naming their twins. Also funny, as long as you aren't the butt of the joke.
To: constable tom
The twins I spoke of were named after their father, Leon. Its bad enough when you meet twins for the first time and can't keep them straight. But when they have virtually the same name, and in their 50's still look exactly alike (hair and all!) it can really screw ya up.

Married. Married? Ain't that some kinda juice you rub on meat when it's cookin'?

You: "Why do you ask?"
Questioner: "Oh, because, haha, I'm just curious!"
You: "Oh, I see." (walk away.)

"So when are you getting married???" When are you going to die?

I gained a little weight, got a little older, and people stopped asking me that question. It's like one look, and they have the answer.
You should be grateful they're still asking the question.
To: Phantom Lord
On a somewhat more saddening note, just down the road from my home live a young couple who epitomize the term "trailer trash" - literally. The place is filthy, junky......anyway, when they had their second(?) child it was stillborn and they named (and buried) the poor baby "Scooby Doo". Sigh. :^(

You nut.

Any chance their first child is named Fred, Daphnie, Velma, or Shaggy?

One suggestion I would have is to consult Dear Abby or Ann Landers, not a political discussion forum.
Thank you for your kind suggestion. Frankly, I find Freeper opinions far more informative & intriguing than anything Abby or Landers might write.
Also, if I may suggest something for your benefit...
Check out the
"Your Opinion/Questions" page, which says "All non-sourced non-news threads are posted here. If you don't want to read posts here, remove Public Opinion from the list of topics in your Preferences.
Happy Thanksgiving! :)

By the way, photo number 4 in your profile is exactly how my garden is being landscaped (I figure about 5 years for it to grow in a little and look like that)
