Maybe I won’t get married, you know? Maybe I’ll do one of those “Eat, Pray, Love” things. Ugh, no, I don’t want to pray. Forget it, I’ll just die alone.

What it means
Our interpretation.
The speaker considers an alternative to marriage, then abandons it as soon as praying enters the picture. The sudden leap from a possible plan to dying alone supplies the joke. A small objection becomes a comically sweeping verdict on the future.
