I'm Getting Married...
 

In Mexico that is.

you could always go to massachusetts you dont need a passport to go there and not nearly as many people try to peddle cocaine and chiclets in the streets

Well, I don't need proof that I live in Massachusetts. And The Mexican Capital is just a whirlwhind rush.

they do have damn good tacos and heavily tequilaed margaritas plus you can get like 4 ponchos for 2 or 3 dollars

No no they up the price, five dollars.

damn it! i guess now i have to go to guatemala for my ponchos and thats a long walk

UAU. mexico??? amazing!!!

i wonder if they have done it for financial reasons rather than enlightened politics-- mexican marriages (and divorces) by fax are a staple of illicit lovers worldwide, and a nice infusion of cash for their coffers.

Ah, I go to downtown L.A. to get my cheap fix. Funny no one goes there there is nothing there really.

mexico- it's the new vegas

No I think you mean Cancun, or is that losing it's edge?

it's not really gay marriage, it's a law that allows a partnership to share common goods and possessions for fairness if the partnership breaks, not to mention social benefits that come with marriage; mostly, it means that non-marriage unions get the same rights and benefits as married couples.

Yeah I know, I don't think my people will be able to get married. Just civil unions, but I don't care for it that much.

people act here like all of a sudden mexico turned into a rainbow bright san francisco only with dildos instead of flagpoles holding the flag and to celebrate we're doing a massive orgy.

"we're so liberated and we are so plural!!! we're letting fags get married!!! hurray us!!"

marriage is overrated anyhow and its a bad bet over 50% end in divorce so i dont know to many people who would really want to go into something that could very well be predicted by a coin toss

if you leave everything up to chance, then yeah I could see it being a toss up.

marriage is not fucking easy by any means (I've been married for 10 years). :)

few things worth doing are easy bets.

SnththclY: MEXICO...seriously. any ceremony at all would be just as valid no matter where you had it performed. fuck some piece of paper from Boston, I say have fun.

ten years well congrats and although im not married i can understand how it would be difficult my best friends married and im good friends with he and his wife and his wife seems to always like to complain to me about various like quirks my friend has that drives her crazy

I know, I frankly don't care so much about marriage. However, there are people who do, especially gay marriage. So I just say let them get married. But I do like the idea of having not to worry about your partner after you die.

Edit- Did you know that here in California, if you are not married you can not get the results of the autopsy.

remind me not to die or get murdered in cali unless im married

But your next of kin can know, i.e any family member.

ok....so california will recognize a marriage from "somewhere else" and give you benefits, but you just can't get married there?

that's rocket surgery.
