Why can't I marry my Border Collie?

We've been together for 4 years now.

He's my best friend. Dogs are man's best friend apparently.

We have each other and we hold, he likes a good hug

We will be friends for better for worse, if he craps on the carpet, I'll get angry, but he's still my dog

For richer for poorer, well dog food doesnt cost that much

In sickness and in health, well vet bills can be pricey, but I'll manage

I'm pretty sure we are going to be together until death do us part (his death first hopefully, knock on wood).


Why cant we have a state sanctioned publically endorsed ceremony celebrating our life long friendship?

 

That was actually very sweet. I lost mine a few years back, it still stings every now and then.

There's something truly special about the kind of connection you establish with your dog. Hell, he/she would even GET you (potential) dates simply by being your cute sidekick. A man's best friend, indeed.

*sigh*

 

it is against the law.


but i love my animals i wish i could marry them all but then i would never reproduce.

 

I say go for it. Dogs have better loyalty than people anyway. Your dog will away love you. Will never lie to you.

 

I don't know. Didn't god say you should get stoned for that? =P

I know the feeling. I love my dog... she is dependable.

 

Have you considered the fact that, as much as you love your dog, it's not the kind of love that causes people to get married? It's not romantic love (for lack of a better term), is it?

 

i'm an ordained minister and i would gladly perform the ceremony for you, under the conditions that you supply the weed and the wine

 

Man, those are good conditions.
You should definitely take her up on this offer.

 

You can and you do.
But it's slightly different with people.
With wives you don't have to get a new license every year.

 

Romantic love? What do you mean?

Like:

Long walks on the beach, check, we can do that

Holding hands? Well Paw and Hand

Talking about our feelings and hopes for the future?, check, we can do that, so far I've worked out growl means hungry, one bark means happy, three barks means walkies and a continuous set of loud barks means "Get the fuck out of here you friggin mutt this is my hood"

 

My cat, Reepicheep, was my best friend and soulmate. I would have just stuck with him if I could have.

Will, another up tight, judgmental, presumptuous jerk heard from.

 

Funny, I don't remember saying that. What I did say is that you are a up tight, judgmental, presumptuous jerk. I don't remember anyone here say anything about fucking dogs. You are the only one that brings that up. Were is you mind?
