California to start issuing same-sex marriage licenses on June 14.»

AP reports:

Same-sex couples in some California counties will be able to marry as soon as June 14, the president of the California’s county clerks association said.

Stephen Weir, who heads the California Association of Clerks and Election Officials, said Monday he was told by the Office of Vital Records that clerks would be authorized to hand out marriage licenses as soon as that date, which is a Saturday and exactly 30 days after the California Supreme Court ruled that gay marriage should be legal.

The court’s decisions typically take effect after 30 days, barring further legal action.

    I suppose this means I will have to divorce my wife and the state will assign me a dude to marry…

    –what’s that? It’s not mandatory?

    I’m so embarrassed…


  2. misshusseinmolly Says:

    Wow — how things have changed since I got married in the state of California in 1981. Back then, there was a three-day waiting period from the time you applied for a license until you could marry, plus there was a blood test requirement.

    I just looked it up and they’ve done away with both. It’s now as easy to get married in California as it is in Nevada. Easier, actually — in Nevada, you and your partner have to be of opposite sexes.


  3. deebaser Says:

    Ralph, I hear you have 90 days to pick a dude before the State assigns one. So I guess its not as bad as it could be.


  4. misshusseinmolly Says:

    I wonder if Fred Phelps and his loony crowd will quit picketing funerals of fallen servicemen and women and start picketing gay weddings?

    Nah –

    Ralph better move quickly before all the good ones are gone. Oh, and his wife had better hurry if she wants a gal who will share the cooking…

    Thanks for all the support, folks!


  7. ralph the wonder llama Says:

    Huh. Another gay-themed thread, and another early appearance by The Performance Artist Known as Daryll™.

    Fascinating.


  8. Ms_Joanne Says:

    Daryll, don’t forget Excalibur. Just sayin’.

    Daryll Says:
    ——————————————————————————–

    I will inform my pastor and will request that we fast that day for a change in California. God said, “whether there be two or three in the midst, I will be there”. We will intercede on those who need heterosexual healing. We will bind and cast out demons. We will bind the devil and his works. We will break the sinful shackles. We will set people free from the homosexual shackles. Jesus is the sheriff and he is dropping the charges that day. On that day, I know the powerful anointing of God will influence some to divert from homosexuality. We will win the day. We have the victory and the devil has lost the battle. We will bind all socialist spirits that are unlike God. The devil will loose his hold on the people of California. I am ready to do battle with the devil and I have my spiritual armor (holy ghost, bible, anointed oil).

    Actually we’d all win if you simply shut the fu(k up and went away and lived in a hovel with your entire church group on a distant island………..

    #####

    Or in Texas. They have had a good bit of experience dealing with crazy religious types. So, if you are FLDS and gay, can you have a mass lesbian wedding?


  11. ralph the wonder llama Says:

    Daryll, I gotta be honest — that wasn’t one of your stronger efforts.

    Simply repeating jokes that worked for you earlier isn’t going to cut it in today’s blog-comedy landscape. TPers are more sophisticated than that. We appreciate your act, but you’re not stretching yourself. Not challenging yourself.

    Like I said before, Daryll, work on your pacing. A true professional is not just funny, he’s also a craftsman. He knows timing. He knows phrasing. He knows how to make something funny. You’re not there yet, Daryll. You have some raw skill, and you clearly know the culture that you’re making fun of, but you need some craft, man!


  12. StratRat Says:

    Actually we’d all win if you simply shut the fu(k up and went away and lived in a hovel with your entire church group on a distant island………..

    Are you certain they don’t live like that? It kind sounds as though they do. There sure are no educational facilities where daryl lives.


  13. mary Says:

    This is for Daryll:

    ‘Prof. Adams says his research shows that most homophobes “demonstrate significant sexual arousal to homosexual erotic stimuli”, suggesting that homophobia is a form of “latent homosexuality where persons are either unaware of or deny their homosexual urges”.’


  14. mary Says:

    Daryll - you might need to have a chat with your wife…


  15. ralph the wonder llama Says:

    Well, Daryll, I know you don’t do jokes, per se — you’re a performance artist, not a comedian. I didn’t mean to insult you by saying you do mere jokes. You do parody. Satiric comment. We all recognize that.

    And your dedication to your character is the stuff of legend, no one can take that away from you.

    But your material is veering toward “over the top” lately, and the inspiration seems lacking. I know, it must be tough, trying to parody a culture as over-the-top already as the Religious Right. And you do a fine job of it, considering the challenges.

    My only concern is that you’re letting your craft languish as you try to come up with crazier and more outrageous things to say. Don’t fall into that trap, is all I’m saying.

    Pay more attention to character development. Give “Daryll” more dimensions. Give yourself some direction in which to advance the character. We’re all rooting for you.


  16. Shayne Says:

    Well Daryll, lots of souls would prefer if you’d mind your own freakin’ business for a change.


  17. StratRat Says:

    No jokes. I am on a mission to save souls. If I have to fast June 14th, I will. We are going to remove satan from America. This is God’s country. Jesus is the light of the world.

    Daryll seems very sincere in his mission, and I do not want to harm his self-esteem anymore than it already is, but I do have a question for him:

    How does gay marriage affect your love life? I mean, what changes are you going to go through when June 14th rolls around? I can see how the law will change those who want to marry the person they love, but I am confused how this change in the law will make you a different person. Daryll, I think Mary is right in post number 15. Daryll, do you like to watch gladiator movies? Ever seen a grown man naked? Oops, sorry, wrong movie.


  18. dbadass Says:

    I must respectfully disagree with ralph the wonder llama. Although I agree that the overall quality of Daryll is way down, I do see some indications of improved effort and more old school Daryll what with the wrath and the smiting and all of that weird “eye of mordor” type shit. Now if he would just go off damning someone to hell like he used to, I would be so happy for us all. Also more whore rescuing is always good. I like the fasting as well. It is sort of reminscent of his huckabee hunger strike days


  19. Shayne Says:

    ralph, it is an insult to jokes to imply that’s what Daryll is doing. Jokes are more respectable than the crap he spews.


  20. gummitch Says:

    Ralph the Wonder Critic, saving one troll at a time.


  21. ralph the wonder llama Says:

    gum, I do what I can.


  22. Shayne Says:

    I’ve never considered being a lesbian but if Daryll was the last man on earth I’d have to give it a go. So Daryll it’s pretty safe to say that if Bambi or whatever your wife’s name is leaves you it’s going to be for a real man so I wouldn’t worry so much about the gay marriage thing.


  23. Shayne Says:

    How long would Daryll have to fast before he got “raptured”?


  24. ralph the wonder llama Says:

    dbadass, I agree with you on the whore rescuing thing. That was a good motif for Daryll.

    The fasting, I find kinda self-indulgent.

    Drama is about conflict, and Daryll’s character isn’t really suited to internal conflict (although, if he had the courage to go there, imagine the depth of possibilities!). Nope, Daryll’s character is better suited to conflict between individuals. And the whore-rescuing was perfect for that. Complex, exotic, sexy…

    I wouldn’t mind seeing Daryll’s writers take him back to Rio next season. If they have the budget, that is.


  25. StratRat Says:

    How long would Daryll have to fast before he got “raptured”?

    I think it depends on what he ate the night before. If it was a bad bean burrito, he could go very quickly. Anyone here know CPR?


  26. Shayne Says:

    Ralph are you going to be doing The Troll’s Studio for Bravo Television? Should we now refer to you as Ralph Lipton? But really, don’t you think Daryll might be a little scary for the first episode.


  27. Shayne Says:

    I don’t know anybody here who’d get close enough to Daryll to do CPR on him. I can only imagine what closet he climbs out of to go to church on Sunday.


  28. Alejandro Says:

    Nothing like a government issued permit/license to make you feel free.


  29. Leftside Annie Says:

    Shayne, I’m available. Do you want to get married? ;o)

    ~A


  30. Leftside Annie Says:

    OooooooooOOOOOoooooOOOOOh, Big D - I’m a’skeert!!!


  31. ralph the wonder llama Says:

    Shayne, let’s just say I’m a fan of the arts.


  32. Shayne Says:

    My husband would probably find that very entertaining Leftside Annie. You know how men love that stuff.


  33. ralph the wonder llama Says:

    Daryll, I think it would be funnier if you said, “Hell fire is ten time hotter than a bean burrito”.

    Why do I bother? He’s not listening to a word I’ve said. Artists are so headstrong sometimes.


  34. Shayne Says:

    Hey Daryll, that’s pretty graphic. I’d suggest Preparation H.


  35. dbadass Says:

    —-
    I am thinking it may not hurt for them to box edition of the “Angel” series. “Angel”, “Avenging Angel”, “Angel 3″ as far as I know there all all there. So serious breakout ideas might be spawned by a viewing of that triology


  36. Shayne Says:

    Really ralph, I think the problem is you give Daryll too much credit. Perhaps pseudo-artist is a better description of St. Daryll.


  37. Shayne Says:

    I think the only books Daryll’s peeps read are the Left Behind series.


  38. dbadass Says:

    oops add the words “view the” before box.
    Thanks-


  39. ralph the wonder llama Says:

    I notice Daryll i steering clear of the earlier gay marriage thread. But he did say:

    “Keep playing with God and you will feel that fire that can’t be quenched.”

    Daryll, we’re not “playing with God”, we’re playing with YOU. Unless you think you’re God.

    Don’t dismiss it — it could be a good direction for you to take your character.


  40. Shayne Says:

    Daryll that voice you think is Jesus means it’s time for you to take your meds.


  41. dbadass Says:

    and fix all the other screwups while you are at it


  42. Leftside Annie Says:

    Hey, Shayne! That would be cool - we could cover all the sin bases with that one, couldn’t we??

    Hoooo boy!


  43. Miles Tougeaux Says:

    We will set people free from the homosexual shackles. Jesus is the sheriff and he is dropping the charges that day.

We will bind all socialist spirits that are unlike God.

    Couple points Daryll…. 1) I’m guessing homosexuals that use shackles kind of dig the shackles thing. 2) You may wanna bone up on your red verse bible: If Jesus was anything, he was a Socialist.

    Daryll, we’re not “playing with God”, we’re playing with YOU. Unless you think you’re God.

    Again Daryll, an indication that it’s time to take your meds.


  45. ralph the wonder llama Says:

    Daryll Says:

    Try the Holy Ghost. That’s true art that is unique and also used as a source of communication to Jesus. Just follow Acts 2:38.

    See, this is what I mean by neglecting your craft. This is just a hackneyed, stock phrase that could be uttered by any boring old American Taliban. We expect more from you, Daryll. We expect an edge. How is “Daryll” ever gonna get his own sitcom if he doesn’t have an edge?


  46. Shayne Says:

    Leftside Annie Says:

    Hey, Shayne! That would be cool - we could cover all the sin bases with that one, couldn’t we??

    Hoooo boy!

    Great, now Daryll had to go call his wife to see what she’s up to.


  47. Leftside Annie Says:

    Wow. I smell a new hit reality show here! Too bad the title “Hell’s Kitchen” is already taken, eh? ;o)

    They could have Heavenly Challenges, you know, saving souls and rescuing hookers and all…? And then, someone could get “raptured” off the show every week!


  48. Shayne Says:

    Daryll, get off the phone with Bambi and start posting. You have souls to save, slacker.


  49. bs Says:

    hey darryl

    do you believe in the talking snake?


  50. dbadass Says:

    Do you get to call in and vote on which character gets raptured? I don’t do tv but it is my understanding that this is how many of the “reality” contest shows work


  51. ralph the wonder llama Says:

    Daryll, I would seriously consider Shayne’s advice about the meds. After all, it worked for Lenny Bruce.

    Well, to a point, I guess.


  52. Shayne Says:

    “Project Rapture”
    “Top Evangelist”
    “So You Think You’re a Bible Thumper”


  53. Leftside Annie Says:

    Yeah! Cool!! I’m lovin’ this!

    Call my agent, man! We gotta get on this. So Daryll, babe, can we get in touch with your people? Let’s do lunch!


  54. Leftside Annie Says:

    Step It Up And TESTIFY


  55. Shayne Says:

    Daryll already has his “following”. We’d all vote for him, we’re big supporters of his brand of “reality”.


  56. ralph the wonder llama Says:

    Aw, man, you would really corrupt an artist of Daryll’s potential by plopping him in a reality show?

    I’m tellin’ ya, this kid could go all the way. He could be the new Jim Belushi. But you guys want to make him into the next Tom Bergeron.

    D-bag, don’t listen to ‘em! You got what it takes! Don’t compromise your talent!


  57. Shayne Says:

    “Who is Rapture Readiest”
    “Talking in Tongues with the Stars”
    Or “Reverend Hagee’s Puking Up Demons”


  58. RUCerious Says:

    Methinks Daryll needs a road trip to Venice Boulevard by the Beach, plenty of whoring, rollerskating and genuine porn action down there for him to saliva….er., save…


  59. RUCerious Says:

    That’s a neat riddle, how do you take a church out of a church?

    With a Church Key?


  60. RUCerious Says:

    Shayne, how about “Your Soul in Jeopardy!”
    or
    Blazing Bush of Fortune!


  61. Shayne Says:

    Ralph, you’re a great agent but you can’t make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear.


  62. ralph the wonder llama Says:

    Daryll, louder is not necessarily funnier.


  63. ChrisSEA Says:

    Ok, is it me or is Daryll just a bit nuts. I’m guessing his wife’s name is Lerlene.


  64. dbadass Says:

    So I employ the basics of group discussion, manners, and mediation and I am “awaiting moderation”


  65. Shayne Says:

    When I start speaking in tongues Daryll I will be signing up for electroshock therapy.

    Does your preacher have you puking demons in a bag like Hagee? How many times did you vomit that gay demon Daryll and did you lose a lot of weight doing it?


  66. RUCerious Says:

    Wow!

    CIODNIDO kmnadoicndc avocnsidovcaioevyhco

    Now THAT’S funny! Daryll, are you paying attention? Daryll?

    I will inform my pastor and will request that we fast that day for a change in California. God said, “whether there be two or three in the midst, I will be there”.

  69. RUCerious Says:

    WOO HOOO! Busting hell wide open sounds like my kind of action! Anybody else up for some hell raising?


  70. dbadass Says:

    Won’t that bust hell?


  71. Shayne Says:

    Daryll, stop talking dirty to RUC. He’s already married.


  72. Zooey Says:

    Bush gives up golf for the war, and Daryll gives up Mickie D for teh gay marriage.

    **eyes rolling**


  73. ralph the wonder llama Says:

    RUCerious Says:
    WOO HOOO! Busting hell wide open sounds like my kind of action! Anybody else up for some hell raising?

    Okay, but only if we’re not out too late. I got a big meeting in the morning.


  74. Shayne Says:

    Uh, oh, db, you’re going to confuse Daryll and he obviously hasn’t had his meds today. We don’t want him to go “postal”, or do we?


  75. RUCerious Says:

    Ralph, we should be done about say, the witching hour…Heh.


  76. RUCerious Says:

    I still think St D. should parade on down to Venice Beach. The weightlifters would have fun kicking sand in his face.


  77. Shayne Says:

    Daryll Says:

    Keep playing. You will bust hell wide open.

    Daryll learned this euphemism from his pastor.


  78. Shayne Says:

    RUCerious Says:

    I still think St D. should parade on down to Venice Beach. The weightlifters would have fun kicking sand in his face.

    I think Daryll would be the one having all the real fun.


  79. Shayne Says:

    Daryll Says
    There is no way that you had a talk with God. I bind the spirit of mockery that is in you, IN JESUS NAME!!!!. Trust me, feeling the holy ghost is like fire in your bones. Ask the Lord to continue to feed you his holy spirit until you want no more.

    I don’t think God would be too happy with your belief that you are the only one who can talk to him. I’d start repenting, BIG TIME.


  80. ralph the wonder llama Says:

    I bind the spirit of mockery that is in you, IN JESUS NAME!!!!.>>>

    Good luck with that, D.

    Seriously, Daryll, just because you felt good when you got up today is no reason to skip your meds. The doctor prescribed them for a reason.


  81. dbadass Says:

    How much hotter than lava is hell again? I just want to know whether or not to bring a jacket. Now when the actual busting happens are we suppose to blow on any noisemakers or break out in any song or anything. One of those goofy choreographed musical song and dances might be nice. You must excuse me, my parents never exposed my to church so I am sort of unfamiliar with the rituals. Is it concerned impolite to say something like “God damn, this is so f’ing cool” or “Holy shit” or anything like that?


  82. RUCerious Says:

    Now why would I want to have a talk with a nonexistent spirit?
    My mockery is sincere.
    You are the antithesis of what Christ lived.


  83. RUCerious Says:

    St. D.
    Looks like your binding is kinda broken today. Maybe some dried newt liver mixed with a dash of bat guano and burned in offering would help.

    I’d suggest a nice Eric Idle number — perhaps “Always Look on the Bright Side of Life”.

    RUC are you mocking Daryll again? I thought he bound your mockery. Don’t go unbinding what Daryll has bound in Jeebus name.


  88. RUCerious Says:

    Z, A lesbian threesome!! How about a chance for Daryll to watch?


  89. RUCerious Says:

    ralph, I suggested the dried newt liver and such, but I guess his binding shit is just weak today.

    RUC,

    Daryll is required to watch. God said so.

    Tiffany said it was ok. ;)


  93. Leftside Annie Says:

    Awwwww, Zooey! *blushing*

    Um, which one of us has to buy the rings? I’m kinda broke right now, but I can make the wedding cake! Wanna lick the bowl…? ;o)


  94. robbez_92107 Says:

    I think that was Daryll’s pants, not hell, that just busted wide open.


  95. RUCerious Says:

    Mistress Z, he might actually learn something about female pleasure, of course Tiffany would be OK. The sign of the cross is NOT foreplay.


  96. Zooey Says:

    Thanks, Annie. I’m broke too, so I’ll lick the bowl for dinner. Shayne will have to support us in the style to which we have become accustomed — Goodwill chic. ;)

    robbez_92107 Says:

    I think you’re in the clear, robbez, because Daryll didn’t bind your mockery.

    Wait a minute…

    YO DARYLL! Was that just RUC whose mockery you bound, or was that TP in general? We need a clarification on this.

    well is’nt it about time… In the regime that Bush wanted to establish all he can think of is telling the world how to be and get gas to AT LEAST $5.00 a gallon…. he is’nt done with us yet. In this world he was trying to create, filled with too much hate, discrimination and hypocracy, THANK GOD California is standing up for peoples rights, the pursuit of happiness. This country was in part founded on the principle of…. no taxation without representation. We queers have been getting taxed and had no representation or legal rights. I this world of so little love, compassion and tolerence, at last there is some copmassion and understandingbut not coming from the Bush camp, they who call themselves Christians.


  102. Zooey Says:

    RUC,

    Heh. :-)


  103. RUCerious Says:

    Mistress Z, Tiffany called and wants to know if you can lend her your black candles and velvet restraints…


  104. McWars Says:

    Ah, finally no tyranny from the majority.

    Darryl, I know your fear out of this stems from seeing a man dressed like a woman in the bathroom. Don’t worry, that was probably only Will Ferrell. But if I’m not convincing you, call into to Colmes tonight at 10PM EST as ‘Darryl’. I want to hear your complaints.


  105. Zooey Says:

    RUC,

    Of course! Does she want the electrified dog collar as well?


  106. ForTruth Says:

    Naughty thread…


  107. Zooey Says:

    Daryll has a really dirty mind, ForTruth. :)


  108. Darylll Says:

    Thank You Lord for hearing the cries of your disenfranchised gay children.

    Thank You for allowing your grace to enter the hearts and minds of those in California and to allow all your children, straight or gay, to enter into the commitment of marriage.

    The extra L is for Love.


  109. ralph the wonder llama Says:

    So are we yea or nay on the Lesbian Polygamy reality show?

    I gotta know whether to call Daryll’s people to see if he’d be interesting in hosting it.


  110. Zooey Says:

    Ralph,

    Hell, I’ll do it. If I can’t get out of Illinois, my summer job is going to fall through anyway. ;)


  111. RUCerious Says:

    Mistress Z, how about you and Daryll (not Darylll) co-hosting?
    You could keep a bible handy to thump his head when he gets too worked up!
    And I’ll be glad to run the teleprompter for him…heh..


  112. RUCerious Says:

    Nice try Dary*3L, but we know that you couldn’t possibly be the genuine thing, as our St. D has no concept of love, or peace, or Xianity.

    Z, I think I have the Queen Jamie version laying around in the attic somewhere…!


  115. Zooey Says:

    I can’t imagine that TBI Daryll would be much different…


  116. RUCerious Says:

    Well, this was a fun way to keep the afternoon interesting! Later, time to warp up and head home. Yes, warp, as in drive!

    Where did the “real” Daryll go? And I if I had a big bible to whack him with I wouldn’t be aiming at his head.


  123. Zooey Says:

    Ohhhh, harsh. :-D


  124. Brain From Planet Arous Says:

    Daryll Says:
    I am ready to do battle with the devil and I have my spiritual armor (holy ghost, bible, anointed oil).

    Don’t worry Daryll, there will now be a lot more “heads” anointed with oil, and many “cups” will runneth over.


  125. Zooey Says:

    Why would a man and woman, doing what they do best, be so concerned about calling it “marriage?”

    Dumbass.

    #14 - Daryll Says:
    ———————————————————–”If I have to fast June 14th, I will. We are going to remove satan from America.”

    May 28th, 2008 at 5:30 pm

    Pres. Bush will be leaving office on 20 Jan, 2009, but he’s going to be staying in the US. Sorry that you will be unable to “remove satan from America”.

    I’ll continue to pray for you, Daryll. With your prejudiced “pick & choose” approach to the Bible, you seriously need help!


  127. Robi McKee Says:

    Now it’s normal people getting discriminated again. I have to wait until 1/1/09 until I can change my name in thru marriage. Same sex couples can do it now thru RDP’s then turn around and get married on Jun 14th, keeping the names they got in the RDP.

    Yes there is several problems with the up coming June 17th date of the new forms using the new marriage license forms - samples here

    Couple types:
    1. Hetro Sexual Couples with both partners under the age of 62.
    2. Hetro Sexual Couples with both partners the age of 62 or OVER.
    3. Same Sex Couples.

    Problem: Couple types 2 and 3 can get RDP Registered Domestic Partnerships and change names, then turn around and get married using the names they want.

    Couple type 1 can NOT get into a RDP Registered Domestic Partnerships and change names. So when they marry they can only change thier names according to current CA H&S Code 103175 and 103180. link to hsc 103175 and 103180

    Couple type 1 have to wait for AB102 to take effect on 1/1/09.

    Couple types 2 and 3 can bypass that using RDP’s to get the names they want in the marriage starting Jun 17th 2008.

    RDP Info: DomesticPartnerfaqs
    Declaration of Domestic Partnership (Form NP/SF DP-1)

    So for equality AB102 needs to be implented on Jun 17th with the same sex marriages.

    The other problem is on the new sample marriage license applications at public health. Since they are going to be same sex compatible where is the new married names placed?

    Stacy Thomas Smith marries Madison Wallace Jones.

    Stacy’s maiden name is Stacy Chris Thomas.
    Madison Wallace Jones maiden name Madison Sidney Wallace.

    Currently they would be Stacy Thomas & Madison Wallace Smith-Jones, Jones-Smith, Jones, Smith, … If they didn’t go back to thier maiden names. Where is it on the new sample they put thier new names?

    Are they: [you’ll notice the names are gender neutral]
    Stacy Thomas & Madison Wallace Smith-Jones
    Stacy Thomas & Madison Wallace Jones-Smith
    Stacy Chris & Madison Wallace Thomas-Jones
    Stacy Chris & Madison Wallace Thomas
    Stacy Thomas & Madison Sidney Wallace
    Stacy Chris & Madison Sidney Thomas

    Which is why AB102 needs to be implementated on Jun 17th so there are lines on the License application to insert the names to be used after marriage.
