I was a longtime poster. Since I was always talking about the interesting stuff I read on here, he joined to see what the fuss was about. I’m still the more prolific poster, but he reads a lot. ---

People, people, people – has no one read Emily Post? You congratulate the groom-to-be (for his success in winning the fair lady’s hand), and offer the bride best wishes (since she did nothing to be congratulated for, but merely sat there like a muffin on a Dunkin’ Donuts tray waiting to be chosen). Um. Best wishes! ---

[/QUOTE] Of course, that requires that one know who the bride is; all I have is a username. And what if it’s two brides or two grooms? Do I inquire into the soon-to-be-married couple’s personal preferences as to who takes the active role and in which situations? Emily Post needs to update for the 21st century! 🙂 [QUOTE=Count Blucher] Can I clink my dessert spoon against my glass obnoxiously in the vain attempt to make you two kiss publicly yet? 😃 [/QUOTE] No. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/watch-out-world-2-more-dopers-get-engaged/409316.md?page=2)
