When Brides Attack

I've been involved in not quite a dozen weddings over the years, and there's one thing that's consistent: brides gradually go insane as the wedding approaches. Don't believe me? Check this out:

Here comes the bride, and there goes her veil - all 1.7 miles of it. Eva Hofbauer went to her wedding on Wednesday claiming to be wearing the longest bridal veil in the world, the Austria Press Agency reported.

2 km of wedding veil is a difference in degree of craziness, not kind. Of course, women are bonkers anyway*, but trust me, there's a difference.

------
* Every time I say this around women, there's always at least one that will immediately take a deep breath to "educate" me that not all women are alike I'm not crazy you must be some sort of sexist pig you're just an ignorant man why do I even bother, that sort of thing. Just as they reach the top I say this:

"Women are crazy, men are stupid."

And pow! out goes the breath. General nods all around.

Which, of course, doesn't make me any less of a pig. But it also doesn't mean women are any less crazy.

Sigh!
I won't agree with that.
Women have moments of clarity and men have degrees of stupidity (granted most are to the severe ...).

BTW, I don't usually comment on backlash issues.

Of course, Amber said something to the effect of that much of a train is crazy. However, I could see wheels a turnin'...
