That's what Dana Hanna—the guy in the video aka "theSoftwareJedi" aka "Ican'tbelieveit'sbutterandI'mgettingmarried"—did, without his bride knowing anything about it. The worse thing: The wife asked for her cellphone to update hers. Maybe she tweeted "Sigh. This is not going to last long."

It's like the world has transformed into a huge sitcom. One produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, directed by McG, and written by two thousand monkeys. Oh well, my best wishes go for the couple. I hope you guys don't divorce too soon. [Techcrunch]

Fortunately, a shred of hope for humanity was preserved when it was revealed that Sal9000 orchestrated the event as a piece of performance art—although it is unclear how serious he is actually taking the relationship. Apparently, he has sexed up his fair share of virtual girlfriends, so it is probably only a matter of time before technology progresses and he finds himself another woman with bigger and better...rendering.

Don't get me wrong, I've got nothing against marriage. And if you've got a wife awesome enough to agree to an invitation like this, it'll probably be pretty smooth sailing from here on out. But let's face it, there'll be times where verbal Hadouken's are thrown. So why not acknowledge that with an awesome wedding invitation?

I'm assuming the front says "Marry Me" in binary, but I'll leave that to those of you fluent in cyborg parlance to decode. Combine this with the Tauntaun cake and you've got yourself a real wedding. [GeekStir, designed by Carla Berrocal]

On Saturday at 7 a.m., Theodore was 14th in line at an Atlanta-area Sprint store, fidgeting for his new Pre. His wedding was scheduled for 8 a.m. As much as Theodore wanted Pre, he wanted his bride, Anita, to see him at the altar at the appointed time. At 7:45, he abandoned his wait and left his line-number and credit card information with a Sprint store employee, asking that he "hold the 14th phone for me." The Sprint store employee obliged. Minutes after the recessional, the newlyweds returned to pick up their phone, spending the first minutes of married life with a Ready Now consultant who walked the happy couple through Pre's setup and features. The new Mrs. Travis later revealed that her reaction was "You did what?" to her husband spending the hour before their wedding waiting for a phone, but later admitted, "I guess I kind of understand now."

Oh Anita, wrap your arms around this dude and never let go. Nerds falling in love is a beautiful thing...but I give it six months. [Sprint via Pogue Original image via Myspace Graphics / Background image taken at U Village in Seattle last Friday night]

Congratulations, you are now the owner of a one of a kind two-faced clock by Diversified Artistic Designs (D.A.D.). The clock's energy is supplied by a state of the art dilithium crystal power generator. If you wish to order the accessory hub and adaptor cable, the generator can be modified to power your home as well as all of the cities in your hemisphere. (Parts not included. Contact your service center for details.)

To activate the dilithium power generator and set the clock, remove the large brass knobs and lift off the top. Caution, the generator itself is not a serviceable part. Do not remove the small brass nuts on top of the clock. If for any reason the power containment unit should become damaged or compromised in any way we recommend that you evacuate immediately, preferably to an alternate universe.

Father's Day is just two weeks away, kids! Maybe you ought to share with him one of your fascinations and see where he runs with it. [Steampunk Workshop via UberReview]

We suppose a UMPC is classier than a PDA—you don't want to make a mistake and say the wrong name thanks to the PDA's tiny 320x240 display. But our general non-interest in UMPCs could also play a factor. In any case, congrats Chris and Mrs. Chris! You two are dorks of the year. – Jason Chen

So with the average sex frequency of married couples holding right at 98 times per year according to a 2001 Durex Survey, this supply of condoms ought to keep the average married couple child-free for about 127.5 years.

There was no word about whether the condoms had been used or not before being sewn up into this dress, but with all that stitching involved, their use after the wedding ceremony was not recommended. – Charlie White

Japan's Aerospace Exploration Agency is sponsoring a Space Couture Design Contest and as part of the publicity, the chairperson of the jury designed a wedding dress meant to look good on Earth (left, in photo) and in zero gravity (right, in photo).

Apparently the key to being pretty in space is flounces? Battlestar Galactica never told us this!
