Yeah true only if we don't blow ourselves up first.

I say let him be married to it, if that's what makes him happy. Who cares.

Reading of the will might be more interesting though.

He is not trying to marry his laptop. He is trying to use it to attack same sex marriage, infering that it will lead to the stupidity of marrying anything and everything, including bestiality. Nutcase he is.

I don't understand your statement. I'm very simple when it comes to infering something about what isn't being spoken about. But as i see it, let him marry his laptop, and there is no argument left.

I regularly see articles about Japanese marrying all sorts of odd things. I don't see that it harm society at all to marry an inanimate object. People and animals are not objects, and that is a different social dimension altogether. So you can't use an object to implicate an animal. They are two different arguments.

Funny, the computer lusting "lawyer" might just be considered too mentally infirmed (he was barred from practicing law in Tennessee just for that reason) to marry anyone legally.
