Who Needs Marriage Counseling When You Have Comedy Videos?
Some of my favorite comics offer their unique perspectives on marriage.
My girlfriend and I are at that proverbial fork in the road in our relationship where the next logical step would be to either tie the knot and get married, or to shake hands and call it a “good game”. My friends keep asking annoying questions like (insert annoying friend voice of your choice here) “Well how do you feel about her?” “Do you love her?” and the classic “Can you picture yourselves together forever?” All important questions, according to my therapist. I however am a 30 year old dude. I’m not a man, I’m a dude, with the emotional maturity level of a blueberry pancake. I’m not sure what that means, but you get the idea. Important questions to me are “When can we play Guitar Hero 3?” and “Where are the Big Macs?”
So after giving up on the advice of caring friends and several professionals, I’ve turned to the only people I can trust: Stand up comedians. If you’re like me and you’re contemplating taking that next big step, watch these videos before making any responsible, rational, or adult decisions.
Seinfeld
Doug Stanhope
Chris Rock
Patton Oswalt
Dane Cook
I had the pleasure of seeing this performance live. I drove 8 hours to discover this “secret”.
And of course let’s not forget how 50% of marriages turn out.
Stephen Lynch
So after carefully considering these videos and glancing briefly into my own thoughts and feelings on the matter, I’ve reached something that bears a vague resemblance to a decision. But first thing’s first, I’m off to play Guitar Hero 3 and eat some Big Macs. Let’s get our priorities straight people!
