What Not To Say On Valentine’s Day

Yeah he's... he's not looking good.

Yeah he’s, uh, he’s not looking good.

* “I was going to get you roses but they’re expensive, so I cut this picture of Axl Rose out of Rolling Stone instead.”

* “Just love me and I’ll give your dog back.”

* “Thank you for this book of coupons for free, sensual massages!  Do… Do I have to redeem them with you?”

* “Instead of chocolates I got you weight-loss tea.  What?  You said you wanted to get in shape!”

* “I will now put one cigarette out on my arm for every reason that I love you.”

Well, she would...

Well, she would…

* “That is some seriously sexy lingerie.  Can you imagine how good Mila Kunis would look in that?”

* “It rubs the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again.”

* “Sex time now.”

* “They didn’t have 4 Weddings & A Funeral, so I got 7 Heads In A Duffel Bag instead.”

* “I thought it would be fun to re-enact the first Valentine’s day!  No, not our first; the first.  Oh, of course I won’t literally behead you.  Come on.”

* “Hey, isn’t Valentine’s Day coming up?”

    Very funny! Can you believe I’ve never seen Mila Kunis before? Great name.

    I bust out laughing at the Axl Rose caption. I bet every guy in the world would love to get away with using “Sex time now” as foreplay.

    Peppermeister has actually said one of these exact things to me, but I’m not saying which one.

    Reenacting a beheading does sound romantic and AWESOME. God I love decapitations and epidemics/plagues. Sigh. I almost bought this kid’s book last week, “Gruesome Ways Famous Peeps Croaked.” (I may have taken some liberties with that title.) Double sigh.

    Happy Valentine’s Day!

    “7 Heads in a Duffel Bag” seems like it’d go well with the first Valentine’s Day. Not that they had duffel bags back then, but still.

      One of my all time great “Should I ruin the surprise” dilemmas: When my wife and I got engaged, I spent God knows how long arranging a surprise party for her afterward. As we were driving back from the mountain where I proposed, toward the party, she said, “I just need to think about all this. I just want to go somewhere, the two of us, and spend time alone.”

      Sooo… by that do you mean spend the evening with, literally, everyone you know?

    No. 2 works well as a note.
    Each letter… thoughtfully hand-cut from magazines and pasted onto a sheet of construction paper…

    “sex time now” is OK, but be sure NOT to say it until after you give her the (Axl) roses and (diet tea in lieu of) chocolates, or she might get mad. Women are funny creatures like that.

    My guy asked me what I wanted for VD and I said nothing because I really don’t like any holidays. He insisted so we went shopping for a cheap clock. He gave me time in case anyone asks. And that weight loss tea is strong stuff. Do not leave home after drinking it. I’m just saying…

    I can see it already: “Sex time now”– it’s not just for Valentine’s Day anymore! (Aren’t people always saying we should celebrate the true meaning of Valentine’s Day every day of the year? Or is that Christmas?)

    Bwahaha.

    I sent my husband a nice text and signed it Coco. Apparently that’s how autocorrect reads Xoxo.

    • The Byronic Man Says:

      Now see if he comes home saying he’s met someone named Coco who really gets him, and why can’t you be more like her?

      Reply

      • Leanne Shirtliffe (Ironic Mom) Says:

        Indeed. Once when he was texting “I love you,” it autocorrected to Apollo. So apparently Apollo and Coco are having some hot fling…

        We should probably learn to type.

    I’m shocked at your open use of the S word and all this slushy emotional Valentine’s day nonsense. Here in England a man of good character cooks his own kipper at breakfast on valentine’s day, washes the plate himself and waves goodbye more vigorously than usual on his way to work, to express his enormous respect and admiration for his good lady on Valentine’s day. His wife in return puts an extra spoon of tea in the teapot at breakfast and on his return in the evening she is allowed to iron and fold his evening newspaper. Upper lips are a stiff as ever and formal modes of conversation are maintained at all times. I don’t know what you all think you are doing in the former empire colonies, but it all sounds positively unhealthy and unhygienic.

    I like the idea of ‘Sex time now’. Short and to the point. Not literally, one hopes.

    I never heard of Mila Kunis before, but a friend posted a picture of himself with her at the opening for the movie “Oz” on his Facebook page today – weird. She must be everywhere!

    Personally, I would have gone with “Hobo With A Shotgun” but that’s just me.

    You are so dang *smooth*, B-Man. Don’t try to tell me these lines aren’t from your own repertoire–they’ve got your stink, er, mark all over them.

    Axl really does not look good. Wow. My husband said the lotion on its skin line to me on Valentine’s Day. He says it a lot.

    “It rubs the lotion…” Just made me spit the sardines I was chewing. hahahaha

    What’s wrong with “sex time now?” If men are gonna make an effort, we should at least get something in return.

    What’s wrong with “Sex time now”? You mean this isn’t acceptable? No wonder my Valentine this year was virtual.
