Do you untie the knot?

[Twalli]

Getting marrieed is sometimes called tying the knot. Would getting divorced be untying the knot?

I've heard of marriage and divorce described as making plywood. You glue two thinner sheets of wood together. If you try to separate them again you don't get two whole sheets, you get many sharp shards.

I don't know about untying. I think there is a severing device needed.

Haha more like hacking it off with a machete and burning the whole rope 😂😂😂

Yes, logically, undoing that bond could be considered “untying the knot.”

[Friendlybro79]

Yes it is. If you are a polygamist and get married to two women it is a double knot lol

Your reply made me think of Jethro Bodean on The Beverly Hillbillies wanting to be a double-naught spy.

@nolabels hahahaha

[NathanDavis]

unknot the tie instead

I think it would be more like cutting the chain.
