There was the similar buzz when those inbred tit-sniffers were getting married too.
People try to distract themselves with other stuff when their own life isn't going right. And I don't mean they have some minor problems that we all have, but I'm talking instead of cutting themselves on the streets, they block out their own lives and just focus on anything but that. For some it's video games, some movies, and some just plain, old nonsensical news like this.
So what you guys should be observing here is there are this many people who are struggling with some shit, yet they are focusing on things like the wedding and baby and the gender and all that shit to escape it.
Even the nosiest mother fucker you know that asks about everyone and every thing; they seriously have fuck all else to do instead.
