| Hey honey, I love
you. Here's a Nordic Trac. Happy Valentine's Day.
When it comes to romancing
their partner, it's clear that cupid's arrows certainly can miss their
mark. There are a lot of unromantic people, losers in the love category,
who believe exercise equipment or house wares make appropriate
Valentine's Day gifts.
In a recent survey on
Dateable.com, we posed the question: What is the least romantic gift
you've received on Valentine's Day? Here are the top three winners (or
losers):
TOP THREE WINNERS
- Gold Heart: Roses, with a
card for another woman!
- Silver Heart: A Nordic
Trac. This person states, "I am not sure if the message was your fat
or not, but let's just say I was not thrilled."
- Bronze Heart: A book on
making love. "Sounds good but it sure can make a gal insecure," says
an anonymous voter.
RUNNER-UPS
Most of the runner-ups were
household appliances and tools. What is this fascination for appliances?
Ironically, a recent study revealed that the number of clean homes are
declining due to women in the workforce. Although these gifts are
practical, they are, nonetheless, unromantic. Runner-ups include the
following:
- A vacuum
- A blender
- Cleaning supplies
- A Black & Decker
screwdriver
- A power steering hose
- A toaster
- A broom
MOST HUMOROUS CATEGORY
- I was asked the question:
"So how do we end this? A handshake or a high five?"
- Divorce Court. (You'd think
the judge would schedule other types of cases for that day, right?)
- A pear. Yes! A damn pear! I
wanted a pear shaped diamond. But, I got.. an actual pear!!
