Wedding receptions can go a little awry if you’re not careful. Down the years they’ve been known to be derailed by drunk bridesmaids, dodgy DJs, shocking speeches and poorly thought-out seating plans. This Wisconsin ceremony, however, takes the (wedding) cake.

Fuck I fucking love cheeky humor in my homicide news. Thank fuck we got writers respectfully smoothing the edges out of the daily gun violence. Gotta laugh, right? Hahahah. Ha. Ha.

Oh yes the non-lethality makes it hilarious.

You called it "homicide news" before editing your comment. It is not homicide news.

It's attempted homicide news, and it was edited to reflect that. What's your point?
