Love Marriage and Arranged Marriage an IT perspective

I received this in my email, an IT geek's guide to Love and Arranged Marriages. I am surprised by the way people can compare something logical as a Software and something so practical as marriage. Hope you find the guide useful for choosing the way you are gonna be together with your better half.

Love Marriage: Resembles procedural programming language. We have some
set functions like flirting, going to movies together, making long
conversations on phone and then try to fit all functions to the
candidate we like.

Arranged Marriage: Similar to object oriented programming approach. We
first fix the candidate and then try to implement functions on her. The
main object is fixed and various functions are added to supplement the
main program. The functions can be added or deleted.

Love Marriage: It is a throwaway type of prototype as client
requirements rises with time thus it is a dynamic system and difficult
to maintain.

Arranged Marriage : Requirements are well defined so use of waterfall
model is possible.

Love Marriage: Family system hangs because hardware called parents are
not responding.

Arranged Marriage: Compatible with hardware Parents.

Love Marriage: You are the project leader so u are responsible for
implementation and execution of PROJECT- married life.

Arranged Marriage: You are a team member under project leader parents
so they are responsible for successful execution of project Married life.

Love Marriage : Client expectations include exciting feature as spouse
cooking food, washing clothes etc.

Arranged Marriage: All these features are covered in the SRS as
required features.

Love Marriage: Acceptance test possible you can try before you Buy.

Arranged Marriage: Product is sold on an as is where is basis, Product
once sold will not be taken back
