Nielsenesque: Recounting of Humorous Anecdote Regarding Nuptials, Collecting

My favorite exchange of this weekend's wedding follows. First, you need to know that both newlyweds, but especially the groom, are major collectors of action figures and the like. This was at a lunch the day after the wedding itself:

Bride (joking): Hey, all I really wanted was this cool ring.
Guest (likewise): Yeah, you could probably get some pretty good money for it on eBay.
Groom (playing along, with mock plaintiveness): Hey, what about me?
Guest: She could probably get pretty good money for you on eBay too.
Bride: Nah - I've already unwrapped him and played with him.
