From http://au.news.yahoo.com/a/-/entertainment/5112712/man-wants-marry-comicbook-character/
| Quote: |
A Japanese man has enlisted hundreds of people in a campaign to allow marriages between humans and cartoon characters, saying he feels more at ease in the "two-dimensional world."
Comic books are immensely popular in Japan, with some fictional characters becoming celebrities or even sex symbols.
Marriage is meanwhile on the decline as many young Japanese find it difficult to find life partners.
Taichi Takashita launched an online petition aiming for one million signatures to present to the government to establish a law on marriages with cartoon characters.
Within a week he has gathered more than 1,000 signatures through the Internet.

First of all, lolwut? Second of all, this makes my head hurt just thinking of all the legal shit a man has to go through to do this. And why?
I'm trying to think of something real funny to say here, but I can't. Here's where you guys come in.

If they allowed that, how many other crazy petitions will end up getting filed? Legalize sex with a sports ball in public? Outlaw sporks? The requirement of permantent biomutational navel plugs? Suicide enforced if I.Q. lower than 80?

If I wouldn't be so strict about my "NO SHOWING MY FACE ON THE NET" policy, I would show you my facial expression now. It's quite priceless.
Anyway, how would they, um, consume the marriage? Paper isn't durable when it comes to poking it with your lovestick.
Still, most characters can be sued for affairs. Take a look at Bulma. She's been in more hentai pics than anything else. It has been scientifically proven that for each human on the Earth there are ten Bulma pics.

 You should totally check out the IRC channel.
While you're at it, go check out my band, Her Majesty's Heroines.

I don't know which would be more pathetic; the sex or holding a wedding for all your friends and family to attend and having them find out you're marrying a piece of paper

If it becomes legal then they'll start an equal rights group to protest anyone who mocks their cartoon fetish.

I believe the actress is 17, not 16.
Also FNJ, I am fairly sure either Pedobear or Anon has dibs.

No way. that ass has been mine, and you know it. |
If this works out, we might be able to move from 'piece of paper' to 'pillow'
wait . . . since Nia digitized, does that mean sex with any nia paper or pillow would be considered necrophilia?
And another thing, wouldn't cons get a lot more awkward:
nerd1: "Hey man, awesome costume."
nerd2: "Thanks, hey sweet wedding band. Whose the lucky lady?"
nerd1:"________"
nerd2: "Wait . . . i'm married to ______ too."
nerd1: "No way . . . so . . . . how long?"
nerd1: "X years"
"nerd2: "yah . . . same here . . ."
