standing at the altar with my wife, but instead of exchanging rings we pass each other a pen and legal documentation certifying our divorce. then we spit on each other and play tug of war with our child while everyone cheers and cries.

the honeymoon is pretty much the same except instead of sex it's a lot of yelling and smoking cigarettes.

"No" he said, with a gleam of murderous intent twinkling gleefully in his eyes "I'm afraid you completely misunderstood," now drawing a wicked looking, quite obviously poisoned dagger, "We clearly agreed that it would be until death do us part!"

And so it begins...

The divorce planner would referee the proceedings. There would be only one winner, or none at all

Divorce planning is fun because the point now becomes willfully placing people who you know are going to start up some poo poo next to people who deserve it at the anti-reception. Also, who cares about what the centerpiece flowers are gonna be? Set out mace and stun guns!

Your DJ will of course play the worst garbage you can think of, and catering is a brownbag lunch. Booze is whatever your guests can carry in.

The traditional first dance is replaced with a fine display of whatever newly aquired martial art/self defense the anti-bride and anti-groom want to demonstrate knowledge and skill of, so they both know what they could potentially get their asses kicked with if they don't watch it.

"The former bride signs the papers! The former bride signs the papers! Hi-ho it's over with, the bride signs the papers!"

The former bride and former groom then have to fight their way out of the place with paintball guns to venture out into their new lives with whatever allies they have.

The former groom would like to propose a toast. Wait, no, sorry. He actually needs a refill. We all need a refill. God why did they ever get married in the first place?

imagine the "best man writes a speech but at the last moment he tears it up and speaks from the heart" cliche, except the couple is getting divorced

I only have canyoneyes for you
The bride and grooms family and friends are sitting on opposite sides of the aisle.
The friends who don't really want to take sides sit in the middle, and the whole room is treated to speeches from both about why their ex is a dirtbag until they take sides.

"When our little girl first brought Hank home to meet us, he was so nervous and I thought 'who is this sniveling sack of poo poo with the tattoos and ratty jeans who thinks he's good enough for my daughter,' but times change and Hannah's a grown-up who can make her own decisions and I knew she'd do what was right for her. She's been having an affair with her dentist for two years and baby, I couldn't be more proud." *sniff*

As a certified divorce planner, I take pride in ensuring my clients have a divorcing experience to remember. In my opinion, no divorce is truly perfect until that beautiful moment of transition, when procedure becomes bitterness becomes a magnificent symphony of destruction.

I have scripted such grand breakups. Such scenes as to make nine out of ten of the saltiest truck-driving grandmas point, stammer a bit, and blurt out "That...that is poo poo!". The tenth one snorted, took a drag from her cigarette, and rasped out, "Been there, done that, got his balls nailed to the wall in my cab to prove it."

Imagine a sensible young urban progressive couple, whose divorce spirals out of control, from a bittersweet but orderly dissolution of their marriage and divvying of assets to the police having to break them apart in the middle of a knockout, drag-down hair-pulling grappling match over a $350 collection of vintage Hot Wheels toy cars.

Sometimes prospective clients have been on the verge of no longer needing my services and getting back together. Sometimes you have to take matters into your own hands.

Random flirtatious texts from burner phones, spraying perfume inside the husband's car, random hairs in the laundry. This is what separates a successful divorce planner from a failure. You need to go the extra mile to insure your clients get exactly what you need.

How do you feel about this celebrity trend of couples just throwing divorces with each other without even being married?

I think it cheapens the whole affair and undermines the institution of divorce. It makes what should be a solemn, peaceful, and reflective event of mutual understanding and respect into a big old circus spectacle. Especially when the same couples are doing it multiple times in a year!

It's not nearly as bad as the assholes who just run off to some shithole like vegas and get divorced on a whim. That's not how this process should work in my obviously biased yet humble opinion. This needs to take time. Months. I have kids of my own to feed...

some of the older generation in this country are just never going to accept gay divorce

no matter how much two homosexual people stop loving each other they will insist that its a threat to heterosexual divorce to let the two legally separate

i'm glad that the future is looking so bright as more young people are growing up to be totally ok with the idea that two gay people can turn a lifelong promise of love and understanding into a mutual loathing and hatred so deep they are willing to rip apart a family and scar their children

Lol this is great, it almost seems like a real legislature loophole that could happen where gay marriage gets legalized in some state but gay divorce is never mentioned in the bill so it remains illegal. Therefore gay marriage is legally forever.

Hard right extreme conservatives lobbying to keep it that way on a dumb angry platform of "those gays got what they asked for".

People getting back into the dating scene and having to explain about their relationship status that they are legally still married but separated and no, there isn't any timeframe for when the divorce will be finalized.

ATTN THIS COULD HAPPEN TO YOU! WARNING!

So I guess things got a little crazy this past holiday season at a local machine shop, and now there are multiple people married to a drill press, a CNC lathe, and a robotic arm. And cross-marrying is involved, to boot. Oh, and the cherry on top of this nightmare sundae? Some of the people involved in it seem very happy with the situation.

It's a big old tangled up stumper of a divorce cluster I have to figure out now, and I'm not even sure where to begin. There's nothing in the manual, nothing in my old textbooks, and the professor I e-mailed six hours ago still hasn't replied back (and she's usually very prompt with answers.)

Goddamn it, why did the future have to arrive like this, three days before my "divorce cruise" vacation? As an industry veteran, I think we need to get this whole human-inanimate object thing sorted out now, before it snowballs us and THE GOVERNMENT steps in.
