Same-sex Marriage Survival Tips

1.  Don't panic.  That's what the Ebola crisis is for.

2) If your church doesn't want to perform same-sex marriages, it doesn't have to perform them. The only kind of marriage that has been approved by the courts is civil marriage---that little piece of paper issued down at City Hall, a building which most people agree is not a church.

3) Your state's economy will experience a boom in its wedding, lodging and tourism sectors. This is called "expansion of commerce" and "free-market capitalism." That tingle you just felt? You can thank gay marriage.

4) Once the media hubbub dies down, you will notice a distinct lack of being able to notice gay marriages happening in your town. Since most people's lives don’t intersect anyway, you'll likely be as blissfully unaware of theirs as they are of yours, unless you're either a major social butterfly or a huge nibby-nose.

5) We don't really care if the gay sex you picture us having in your imagination makes you feel icky. Because, to be honest, the sex we picture you having in our imagination kinda makes us feel the same way. Hooray for common ground.

6) It's highly unlikely that you'll experience a biblical insect swarm in your town as a result of gay marriage. But if you do, don’t curse the darkness. Instead, try this recipe for Ghiscari Spiced Honeyed Locusts---a "tantalizing" dish that "perfectly balances honey sweetness with the savory fire of Free City spices." Serve over noodles and crack open a beer and that's some good chow right there, bub.
