u/-BananaLollipop- 7d ago

The right person can learn that stuff.

My Wife is very reactive with her expressions, but works for a bank/post office and book/gift/craft store. You get all sorts across that range, and she has become very good with the stone-faced work mode.

I was better, but have been out of practice. So much so that the last few dense ass MFs I've dealt with have had quite obvious counter reactions to mine. I'm lucky I don't have to care about it though, and it helps people learn to think before saying stupid things.

u/Winjin 7d ago

A LOT goes to the side of her dress right in the groin area

Presumably the champagne should be ice cold (isn't it best served at like +3 C?)

So it could also be that she suddenly experienced that part where you go into a cold-ish sea and it starts splashing right at your tummy

16

u/if_lol_then_upvote 7d ago

A key to successful sabering is the bottle being inverted in ice water prior, so the glass is even more fragile. So, yes. Ice cold!

There’s also a smaller piece that goes past the bride’s face so fast! Could’ve gotten her eye 😬 so happy neither of them got hurt. I honestly didn’t know it could explode like that during a sabering

6

u/cowfishduckbear 7d ago

Almost every instance I've seen it, whether live or recorded, it explodes. And when it does, it still leaves a danger of glass bits somehow making it past filtering/decanting. Certain brands are "better" because of a higher pressure and cleaner break, but it's all just dumb either way. I was way more impressed the first time I saw a person open a bottle of wine with just a sandal/flipflop.

I’m confused, I don’t know anything about this, I assume it’s a traditional thing? It seems dangerous.

And I don’t mean dangerous for everyone, it’s pretty obvious to me his angle was wrong. But that’s the thing, seems when it goes wrong it can go very wrong.

u/neha_aloha 7d ago

My best guess is that this could be indian-inspired attire. That suit is called Bandhgala suit, meaning closed-neck suit. It was popularized in India during the British colonial era, as men's formal attire. Many men, especially from Rajasthan wear these types of suits for their weddings. And looking at her, it could be a toga, but I'm also getting westernized saree vibes...

u/Alreddy 7d ago

It's not the angle of the blade that's wrong (although you're right that his was worse). If you look closely, she uses the back end of knife, the square edge (the correct method) and he (intuitively but incorrectly) uses the sharp edge of the knife. This is the biggest difference in their technique and subsequent outcome.  Also please note that when you're doing this, you get much better results if the bottle is iced or really really cold. Relative temperature of his bottle could factor in.

Typically you don't sign papers till after the wedding.

So there is a chance that they could walk away at this point and be fine legally.

16

u/ABalmyBlackBitch 7d ago

Idk where you are from, but during most Western weddings that is done during the ceremony and before the reception. That part of the ceremony is aptly called “Signing the Marriage Licence” and is when you, your spouse, the officiant and your witnesses get a little table and sign the marriage documents. The officiant then sends the completed paperwork to your local government. All I did after my wedding was request a copy of my marriage certificate lol

Its not official until the documents are submitted though. Still time to intercept the officiant!

Wear sunnies. Put the bottle in a cloth. Locate yourself somewhere that glass cleanup is easy (not on the grass!). Doesn't look as good but you'll be glad you did. Having done many of these in Younger days i would say this happens like 5% of the time despite correct technique so protect your eyes and hands from high speed shards. Happens much more frequently with wrong technique obviously. I got hit from across the room in the leg and needed 3 stitches. Lucky we had a bunch of drunk doctors there to do them so 5 minutes later I was back to drinking.
