What the hell is wrong with people? How can these oddballs find each other, and I never have any luck? Huh?? There's something inherently unfair about all of this. I'm putting in a complaint! :grr:

1. My sons would be ecstatic over something like this
except they are 11 and 7 years old.

2. I'm a HUGE gamer nerd but this just makes me shake my head sadly.
And please, give your sons more credit, I somehow think even they would realize how tacky this truly is. :P

5. ok to be fair, neither are planning their nuptials at the moment.
I just asked my 7 year old after reading the article to him what he thought. I was told he did not think this was cool. *relief*

3. It's a good thing that The Sanctity of Marriage is protected from The Gays.
Otherwise The Happy Couple's Halo-themed nuptuals might somehow be cheapened.

4. Yes, if the evil homogays had their way, Master Chief AND Baby Jesus would be weeping.

8. That doesn't seem fair at all.
Pick up a form 42B and file a grievance with the management!

9. Wanna file one too?
I think a lot of us have legitimate grievances here.

10. {{{{sigh}}}} Florida - of course.
Some days I suspect that someone tried to pick up the US by grabbing Washington State, and all the loose screws dropped down here.

At first I thought "Halo" was some sort of angel thing - which is creepy in a Thomas Kincaide sort of way - but a videogame wedding?

Of course, I should talk. If anyone offered to marry me on the set of "Firefly", I'd start sewing my dress in a minute. Hmmm: I wonder if any of Inarra's gowns can be altered...

11. No offense, but what is wrong with Florida?
Whenever there's some sort of bizarre story about stupid human behavior, it seems to come from Florida 9 times out of 10. :P

12. It's the heat. And the bugs.
They sap one's sanity.

Makes for a difficult existence, but some fine comic writers.

17. Well, I was thinking that maybe you n me...
could call up Master Chief, and uhm, you could wear a purdy dress all covered in Halo-inspired logos, and I'd wear my finest Spartan armor (no cheeto stains!)...

21. Why do I have to be the girly one?
Are you trying to tell me something? :P
Incidentally, there's much talk in Chain of Memories about 'who's most important' to Sora...obviously, they're talking about Kairi, but that's a lie. We all know who Sora truly loves.

I forgot to list that on my 'controller throwing' moments thread. Never before have I felt stupider for playing a video game.

31. Be honest. Did you actually like that song?
I was able to stand 'Part of Your World' and 'Under the Sea' because they're good songs, but...'Swim This Way'? Really?

Like really, really annoying. And then it would some how become an earworm and I wanted to kill myself.

33. Yeah, it was awful, but was it worse than the finale song? I cannot say.
Apparently, the song that you do with Ursula was based on one that was supposed to be in the original movie. Dreadful, eh?

35. Ursula, imho, is worthless.
So worthless even the Organization didn't bother with her. So worthless she was killed by a crappy song.

I think Maleficent and Scar were probably the best of the original disney villains.

40. I've read that Scar is pretty much an accurate representation of a male lion.
:P
Simba would get his ass handed to him in the real world by all of the Scars who don't fuck around with stuff about 'honor' or 'virtue'
Do you have a favorite bad guy from Kingdom Hearts, Disney or otherwise?

Since Aladdin is one my most favorite disney movies.

42. Jafar's pretty cool.
Pretty much outsmarts everybody around him multiple times, but then in classic bad guy fashion, gets extraordinarily stupid when he's about to win.

the Queen from Snow White. :D

44. Maleficent has an awesome name and looks cool..
and she's pretty cool in Kingdom Hearts. I think it's hilarious when Riku-Ansem stabs her with the keyblade and she turns into that huge badass dragon. I think her dragon form is just about one of the coolest things Disney ever came up with.
...then in Kingdom Hearts 2 she becomes a good guy? WTF?

you can feel bad about yourself after seeing that.
