Janey, I'm going to ask you to marry me.
Sure, John, I would love to marry you and become Mrs. Manhattan.
We'll stay together until the mid-70's, when I will leave you for Sally Jupiter's little girl Laurie, because you'll be getting old but I won't.
What?
Then you'll hate and resent me for the rest of your life, which will be cut short by cancer. I know you will say yes. Will you marry me, Janey?
Aaaaah!!!!
