Bob Saget called… He wants his schtick back.
can’t seem to find the companion piece – “old people involuntarily drop trow at the reception”
Tiiimberrrr…
Interesting that the guys are fainting at five times the rate of the gals.
From what I have been able to find out about this. It may have something to do with locking you knees straight. Doing a google search on Locking Knees and found alot of military people saying not to lock you knees when standing for a period of time (Guard or Formation). They say something about restricting blood flow.
not to lock you knees when standing for a period of time
Yes, a VERY bad idea to lock your knees.
Also, I wonder about how many of the weddings wound up with the groom (or bride) passing out at a more… um, active.. time later.
J/P=?
Some of those are obvious narcolepsy cases.
Frankly, I am offended by you blatant attempts to poke fun at the pain experienced by narcolep….zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
The overwhelming number were men. MMMMMMMMMM
Is there a message there?
Me thinks there is.
Most wedding ceremonies are a huge drag for everybody, but standing and trying to look attentive through one? This probably happens less than it should. Of course, there may also be some *night before* partying contributing, which may explain #4’s comment.
that was hilarious, it really, really was.
What is it about weddings? I go to church every week with baptisms, communion and other rituals but this mostly just happens at weddings. The knees are probably it but it also might be the clothing.
I’ve seen a best man go down and it darn-near happened to me when I was a groomsman.
I remember my vision was going black and thinking, “My… this feels nice… but … whoa!” and then I shook myself awake.
The first thing they teach you in high school marching band is never to lock your knees. You won’t pass out, but you’ll go fall forward like a ton of bricks. People that actually pass out fall backwards as their legs collapse.
OFTLO – Didn’t you mean zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz…WHACK!!
Most were obviously drunk or hungover. Personally I prefer running through the crowd squirting puke through my fingers.
