The slideshow of the lives of the couple included photos from a Black Lives Matter protest. One of the two getting married is a cop. Then I noticed Thin Blue Line decor around the gift table. The other half of the couple is Black.
Have to ask are they still married?
Yep. And adopted a white baby. Like, intentionally, specifically a white baby.
Well at least they are still married.
While I agree that seems absurd, people can have more than black and white views outside of American politics and Reddit, which I hope lemmy has. There must be some cops that want to do better, though I barely would believe them.

I don't think they'd have thin blue line decor though...
Delusional cop and self hating black person? Idk. What I donβt get even more is black people choosing to become cops

Father-In-Law (divorced) giving a drunken speech about how marriage is a mistake, followed by his ex-wife / mother-in-law giving a drunken speech about how marriage is a mistake and how the bride is not good enough for her son. Divorced within a few years.
I was sitting in during the vows ceremony of my own wedding (everyone told me I should get married, and the groom told he would pay for everything).
When it came to the "do you take thee, to be your loyal wedded..." part, I said "yes", as per the original plan.
When it came to his part, the best man came in out of nowhere and asked me to say thank you for this wonderful wedding. I stared at him, but then the groom himself starts going on about how I'm ungrateful for all that he's done for me, and that without his support there would be no wedding at all.
I'm dumbfounded, the groom was the one pushing for the wedding beforehand, promising unwavouring support for it and now it's my fault?
At this point the groom and his best man, hold hands and declare that the wedding is off, and that they're off to some russian night club to dance off my toxicity.
Motherfucker, I didn't ask for any of this. If I recall, you were marrying me to piss off that night club owner in the first place, and now you're suddenly best buddies with him and putting the whole wedding on me? Asshole.
What.
The.
Fuck.
I think that about sums it up

Honestly, sounds like you dodge a severe gun shot wound right there. Instead you walked away with a minor gun shot wound.
Is it over?
Were you in the Oval Office yesterday?
Worst gay wedding ever
Yo, what the fuck?
Can I buy the movie rights to your life?
Is $3.50 a reasonable price?
Was best man for a friend and the whole time during the ceremony and after i felt like this was a tedious chore to them or at least for my friend. Didnt take long until the talk of divorce started.
My mom liked her boyfriend because he was softspoken. During the ceremony he spoke to the officiant instead of her and she realized that his gentle speech pattern was really mumbling. Nice guy and they remained close friends until he passed, but not really romantic.
