Graham: Our what?!
Kathleen: Well, you left your phone right there, and I figured it's been long enough.
Graham: You could have at least asked me!
Kathleen: But then I couldn't have changed your interests to "Kitties and only kitties!" without your noticing!

Wow, this sure went somewhere fast...
Am I the only one that doesn't see marriage just a stepping stone towards babies?
Or a requisite for that matter, we could have started talking about baby names ages ago, nothing really changed now.

As for the eggs benedict branch... wow, that shouldn't have come as much of a surprise as it did :P
Not a big fan of it myself though, so:

I agree but, like Memo said about the internet distorting discussions of personal relationships and information etc. I personally believe that topic is very much Graham and Kathleen's alone.

Hence: Eggs Benedict

(after I posted a 'Congratulations!' about 10 pages back)

Cheese boards are an acceptable substitute to Eggs Cumberbatch of course, though I don't go in for all that pennicillium-bacteria-laced nonsense myself. Brie is about the limit of my tolerance, as long as it's nice and gooey

Did you know that Hollandaise sauce was originally just Dutch semen? What you find now is the closest possible non-semen facsimile.

Pretty much my reaction after I came back from my congrats, but it seems that all paths lead to cheese.
Totally accurate, except for all the times I'm not.

IMAGINE IF YOU WILL; THANKSGIVING EGGS BENNY

TURKEY. STUFFING. CRANBERRY SAUCE. ON A BISCUIT. AND, YES, WITH POACHED EGGS AND HOLLANDAISE. TRULY REMARKABLE.

IN CONCLUSION, VICTORIANS; GIVE SPOONS A TRY.

Poached eggs really are the best eggs. It's basically a soft-boiled egg, only without the shell. If you like a soft yolk, they're where it's at.

The basic eggs benny is an English muffin, toasted, a slice of ham or back bacon, a poached egg, and Hollandaise sauce. Hollandaise sauce s basically the ultimate mix of eggs and butter, with a little lemon juice, salt, and pepper for flavour.

Although it's hard to go wrong with the classic (especially if the chef really knows their Hollandaise), the beauty is that the same basic idea can be expanded to innumerable different combinations.

I think you can talk about anything, be it seriously or comedically, provided doing so doesn't make anyone unnecessarily uncomfortable.

Graham has stated Grathleen's position on babies, which is succinctly that they're not looking to have any anytime soon, so I think it's inappropriate to therefore go on discussing baby names seriously, given that above stated opinion on protocol.

Provided it is made clear that you're joking, unless of course Grathleen calls hush on comedic discussion of the matter as well, I don't see an issue in talking about fun baby names from our romantically-entwined comedy duo. Certainly it's nothing that hasn't pervaded comedian discussion forums for decades already ("If Chaplin and Moran had a baby..." etc.)

Not having much to add to the baby line of reasoning (nor the cheese one, as it happens), I'm going to go back to hilarious wedding plans. So, here goes.

I did not ask Mikey Neumann but from the short time I spoke to him at the PAX east Gearbox party sponsored by Randy Pitchford(It may have been someone else I am bad with names) he seemed like a really awesome guy. We could go cane shopping like House and Wilson, and he could buy me a elephant penis stretched over bamboo, his would have flames on it so he could look like he was going fast.

We would live stream the wedding and auction off the naming rights of our first child at Desert bus ;)

Um clearly you haven't paid attention to the last 13 pages of this thread, the only thing anyone has talked about is how happy we are that Graham and Kathleen decided to get married.
