    I felt like I was taking crazy pills until I came across this comment. I’ve always heard this one instead of the “beating his wife” one.

    I’ve also heard some variations of this one like “a witch is marrying the devil” or “a witch is getting married”.

    I personally call them sunshowers.

    I have a theory that this has a special name less frequently the further you get from the equator because it’s a phenomenon that’s less rare when the sun spends less time overhead

    So it’s from the French who took it from a poem about Greek gods. So the Christians stole from the pagans yet again lol.

  I’ve decided I hate the domestic violence one. One I heard a while back is “a monkey’s wedding” and that has a much better mental image.

  It’s always been, “The devil is getting married,” for me.
