Valentine's e-cards

The worst thing you could get from your Valentine would be an e-card. Especially those already-made ones where the only creative thing you do is insert your lover's name. Or pet-name, if you're feeling extra romantic. I don't know anyone who sends this stuff but I think it's the stupidest thing that ever crossed the internet. It's not okay for ages 12 and up, you should be doing something real. It's not even okay for ages 12 and below.. you're not supposed to be falling in love at that age..

This extremely tacky e-card encompasses most things that put me off them.

<<< TACKY








First of all, there's the teddy bear and heart (or ass) shaped balloons. It's way too generic. Who says your lover likes teddy bears and balloons? Just because she's a "girl" doesn't necessarily mean she does.
This doesn't just apply to e-cards. When a guy likes a girl and immediately thinks to buy her teddy bears, chocolates and balloons for Valentine's, to me it's almost like they're saying:

Hello fellow female earthling. I don't really know you that well, but seeing as you harbour female appendages you must like what the media portrays you to like. Therefore you will love pink fluffy toys and anything heart-shaped that I give you and you will love me and I will be top-dog.


I know a lot of girls are into that kind of stuff, and there's nothing wrong with it. But I just think guys should just remember that we're all individuals and have our own interests, and they should get to know them before jumping to conclusions. I know I'm a bit tired of stuffed toys.. they just sit there in my room looking pretty.

Also those white streaks in the background are a bit random. They're either fireworks coming out of the bear's ass or semen :S

The second thing is that it's an E-CARD. Would a Valentine be so niggardly as to send their lover an electronic greeting card? There isn't even any room to put in your own personal message, whereas a real card would. If you really did love someone, surely $5 on a real card wouldn't put your house on a mortgage.. Or just make your own on Publisher. That might even be better than buying a real card. Just don't get a pre-made card!

That's about it. I'm not complaining about "I love you beary much" though, because I love puns and I think that one's just too good heheheh.
