The Decker-Skinner Wedding Test

 

In order to keep control of an otherwise out of control situation, the groom and bride to be have devised a simple, yet effective, method of letting their dear families know when they have “gone over the top”. As such, please heed the following.

 

All guests begin with ZERO points. Depending upon their actions (or in some cases, their obnoxious spouse/children or political candidate’s), you may gain or lose points. If, at the end of the night, you have LESS than zero points, you are to be removed, shot and then forced to attend a “Ralph Nader for President” rally. If you have more than ZERO points, then you may enjoy yourself, drink and be merry.

 

Then you can go to the rally.
