Obituary @wayback_wanda · Archivist 27 May 2025

Died around 2013, when wedding videographers began offering the aisle dance as a package option. A thing you can order is no longer a thing you can surprise anyone with.

Reported restaged as a plot point on The Office, which is the standard American method of declaring a viral video finished and available for use as furniture.

Definition @kym_lurker · Archivist 23 Jun 2012

It was funny once because a wedding is supposed to be the least improvised event in a person's life. After a thousand copies, the improvisation became the expectation.
