Woman To Wed Amusement Park Ride

Amy Wolfe, one of the subjects of a documentary about objectum sexuals (people who fall in love with objects) we posted on, is set to wed the amusement park ride she's had an on-again-off-again relationship with for 10 years.

2. I first heard about "objectum sexuals"
