Gift for valentine's day

Post by Yogimus »

- This year, for Valentine's day, the challenge presents itself:
1. How can I keep her off my ass?
2. What is the bare minimum I can spend to keep the peace?
3. If I play my cards right, will I be getting oral sex?

Well, friends, there is a low cost way to make all this happen. Name a star after her. Well, not a real star... hell, don't even go through a company. Just google a generic certificate, and photoshop your broad's name n it. Type up a official looking form, saying: "Star KD484 is now named 'Sugartits Squishmitten' in the smithsonian archives", and insert a niht sky photo with an arrow pointing to a faint dot.

Now here is the trick: Package all this shit in a sweet ass envelope, and give it to her. (Don't skimp on the stationary)

She stays happy, her mouth stays quiet, and your dick gets wet. All for under 20 bucks.

One of the secrets to a happy life, across a host of circumstances, is the judicious use of forgery.

You're asking for trouble doing that. I can almost guarantee that she'll try to verify it...

Meh, my wife and I generally exchange small boxes of chocolate and cards, nothing fancy. Our first communication (when she answered my personal ad) was on Valentine's day though.

I tell my wife I love her every day (multiple times). I buy her flowers regularly for no reason. I see no reason to spend four or fives times the price of flowers just because it's the day a particular Saint is venerated for whom legend says if you look upon his relics your loved ones will be free from trouble for the coming year (at least that's the version I heard).

OTOH, inquiring minds would like to know if anyone here on the forum (a) knows Yogi's lady friend and (b) would stoop so low as to engage in blackmail over showing her the OP.

Oh, I'd never do such a thing. OTOH, if the situation were reversed, I suspect Yogi would just for fun.

I bought my wife something for Valentine's Day once. And she bought me a matching something at the exact same time.

We were planning on spending the day in, together, but we went out for a walk to get some lunch. On the way to the restaurant we saw a vendor selling roses (short stemmed, not expensive) being held by cute little stuffed animals. We each got the other one, and we planned it out so the respective stuffed animals looked like a boy/girl couple. Still have the stuffed animals somewhere.

Artificial, scripted, 'you MUST buy a gift now, of one of these approved types' holidays are vile and we both disapprove.
