We Should All Be So Lucky As To Find Something In This World That Makes Us Happy, Part Five And A Half • It is a cold and unforgiving world out there, so who are we to judge whether or not it is OK or "weird" for a grown man to marry a Nintendo DS Lite videogame character? We all live in glass houses, although clearly some of our glass is cleaner and more in touch with reality than others'. Anyway, congrats, crazy guy!

Rip Torn's eyes would barely open and his face was a ravaged, haggard, stubbly mess. His chapped lips stuck together, and the pavement had left a red, mottled impression against his cheek. He looked around blearily, barely able to focus...

The Challenge: I had to go on a 3.5 hour bus tour of totally random TV and film locations in New York City. Alone, and wearing a specific ridiculous tshirt. And I had to find someone to take my picture...

"Whoa." --Kebanu Roves It is weird that you can't do things normally in New York sometimes. Like, I'm so sorry that I ate an early dinner before going to see Avatar on Friday night the way that a HUMAN BEING...

Yeah he's weird, but at least he proposed in private. He took her on vacation and played with her most of the airplane ride. And when the time was right he took her to a nice dinner, uploaded an engagement ring power up on his sd card and she downloaded the file/accepted.

If he's comfortable with literally tens of japanese teenagers busting trails on his wife's face on a fairly regular basis, more power to him.

Seriously, if my mom even starts with the "even fictional videogame characters can find a husband" malarkey tomorrow, I am going to try and suffocate myself with yams.

I'm declaring shenanigans on this one. If you read the accompanying article it says that the groom was part of some underground art/media/video/otaku web group and that it was important for him to broadcast the wedding.

Could you please pass this message on to the groom?

All craziness aside, the bride is pretty attractive.
