KRAMER: I mean, what are you thinking about, jerry? Marriage? Family?
JERRY: Well...
KRAMER: They're prisons. Man made prisons. You're doing time. You get up in the morning. She's there. You go to sleep at night. She's there. It's like you gotta ask permission to use the bathroom. Is it all right if I use the bathroom now?
JERRY: Really?
KRAMER: Yeah, and you can forget about watching TV while you're eating.
JERRY: I can?
KRAMER: Oh, yeah. You know why? Because it's dinner time. And you know what you do at dinner?
JERRY: What?
KRAMER: You talk about your day. How was your day today? Did you have a good day today or a bad day today? Well, what kind of day was it? Well, I don't know. How about you? How was your day?
JERRY: Boy.
KRAMER: It's sad , Jerry. It's a sad state of affairs..
JERRY: I'm glad we had this talk.
KRAMER: Oh, you have no idea.

Mr. Brian, does your wife read this forum?

Mr. Brian, a 'sad state of affairs' indeed.

Not often but she is a Seinfeld fan and we often make references to that bit as well as the George/Susan "brown shoelaces" thing when we have our mundane moments.

George and Susan sit either side of a table, with coffee. There's a definite
lack of sparkling conversation. George forces a smile at Susan. There's a
long pause, broken only by Susan sighing. George finally thinks of something
to say.

GEORGE: I, uh, oh, broke a shoelace today.

SUSAN: Oh, I can get you shoelaces tomorrow.

GEORGE: Okay.

SUSAN: So, what colour?

GEORGE: Brown.

Susan nods her comprehension, as George muses for a moment.

GEORGE: Maybe a black.

SUSAN: Mmm.

The waitress walks by the table with the coffee pot.

WAITRESS: More coffee?

GEORGE: (urgent) No! Check! (quieter) Please.

The waitress pulls the check from her pocket and puts it on the table for
George.

Actually, I've always enjoyed Seinfeld. The scenes you've quoted are classics. My favorite episode is The Chinese Restaurant with George offering to blow in the guy's soup for 50 bucks.

Thanks Epsilon. It was all rather painless and when all the formalities were out of the way it was pretty fun.

First dance song was "Kath" by Sebadoh

I was "allowed" about 20 songs which included

In Between Days - The Cure
Lips Like Sugar - Echo & the Bunnymen
Blitzkrieg Bop - Ramones
What Do I Get? - Buzzcocks
Home - Depeche Mode
The Killing Moon - Echo & the Bunnymen
Don't Bring Me Down - Electric Light Orchestra
So Bored - The Exploding Hearts
Here Comes the Summer - The Fiery Furnaces
Do You Realize?? - The Flaming Lips
The Swimmer - Frank Black & The Catholics
Love Will Tear Us Apart - Joy Division
Home - Lou Barlow
Love Me - Love and Rockets
So in Love - OMD
Winterlong - Pixies
Soul and Fire - Sebadoh
40 Days - Slowdive
Another Cigarette Ends - The Soda Pop Kids
20th Century Boy - T. Rex

The rest was Pedro Infante kinda stuff or as I lovingly call it: "Julio music"

Holy shit I'm married.

by **Epsilon** » Sun Sep 07, 2008 9:27 pm

Holy Shit you're married is right. So happy for you. Glad it went well.

This ring is annoying the shit out of me though. I'm thinking of getting a tattoo instead. Something classy like barbed wire.

by **Epsilon** » Mon Sep 08, 2008 7:25 pm

You said you wanted another tattoo, but you better not!

Make sure you leave your ring on the dresser before you leave for NYC. She'll think you left it as a token of your affection. Trust me!

Yeah leave it right alongside the family jewels.

The 'trust me' part is what scares me, Mr. Brian. Not
sure I'd want to be a fly on the wall when he got home.
