Actually this is a list of what not to get your significant other on a holiday invented by women and Hallmark.Did that sound bitter?

I could go either way on the cooking classes thing. I love to cook, but I would love to learn some other cuisines. My boyfriend could certainly get me some Thai or French cooking classes. That would be very cool. But if he got me cooking classes because he wants to insult the cooking I already do, that is another story.
All the other things you listed I totally agree with
Good lists. However, as you know, I don't have to worry about giving or receiving a good or bad V-day gift. Yea for me!
Hahaha sooo true - we had a discussion over the weekend about how hard it is to find stuff for guys and it was concluded that this is defintely the woman's holiday - I'll agree ! :p
So for the man...is it ok though, to trim his back and nose hair for him? haha
Oh now you come up with this list hrs AFTER i bought the gifts of toilet paper, tampons, and a weight watchers gift card! D'oh!
Don't give him ABBA Greatest Hits either!
In the spirit of your explosive diarrhea idea, I bought a male friend some Ex-Lax and Visine. I'm putting them in a heart shaped box. Wonder if he'll like them?? :)
BUT . . what's wrong with ABBA's Greatest Hits???????? Or Wham's Greatest Hits for that matter? Hall and Oates?
If Shifey can love the Hoss, I can keep my bad music (as long as they are hidden among the GOOD music).
Guys don't want a penis pump for v-day?! That's a revalation to me!!
Barry Manilow should never be a gift for any occasion.
Valentines Day sucks !!
Thank you.....Have a nice day !
I once heard of a girl getting a pack of three varity tights for valentines day, that my friends has got to suck bad ass!!!:)
Good list. By the way, I was tramatized by your last post.
SN -- I meant the cooking classes as an insult, but in the right context I am sure a cooking class would make a nice gift.
DG -- Maybe next year you won't be so lucky.
Tina -- Totally a woman's holiday. Men need a special day too.
Phats -- Hope you have the receipt.
Missy -- ABBA has a few songs that are tolerable especially if you are drunk. But Barry is 100% sucky.
MD -- You can rock out to whatever you want.
Ann -- This is the pump that is suppose to make your penis bigger.
Angel -- Amen.
SSG -- Amen.
LOS -- Amen.
Scarlett -- You were traumatized? You should have seen me.
It would be odd for a guy who probably REFUSES to buy tampons the other 364 days a year to suddenly come home with 'em on Valentine's Day. Maybe he's trying to tell ya something...?
You should have added ballroom dance lessons to that list. I'm sure there are people out there that LOVE that kind of thing. I'm not one of them.
soup. you forgot soup. never a good idea unless you look really good dripping in soup.
I can barely see the screen I'm crying so hard. And by that I mean you are damned funny, budrow!
Crap..now I have to take that premature ejaculation lotion back to the store. Do you think Walmart will take returns like that?
Great list, Shife.
I'll have my commentary on VD (gotta love those initials) up tonight at some point. You can just imagine where it'll be headed with my spiteful ass.
So what ARE you going to get the mrs. then?
No Carpenter ants? Really? I guess I'm just weird then.
ryc: the goldfish rock! when I run out of groceries, I can dip into the Shife aquarium. ;-)
I don't think the blog world is ready for the two of us to consult on lists together... hehe
I have every single one of those things already.
I gave him tickets to Brokeback Mountain...then he wanted to sex change....go figure!
One Valentine's Day, I actually had the joy of catching my then girlfriend blowing some random joe at a party. And really, it was the best present ever, since it's saved me from dating and having to buy people shit. Cost effective heartbreak is underrated.
"A video of you having sex with his best friend"
Unless his best friend happens to be a hot girl.....
awww you ol romantic you! Mrs shifey is lucky indeed :P
I'd rather take nothing than anything on that list.
;)
Dang, now I gotta go shopping again... I'd better hurry... wish I'd seen this list earlier!
it depends on what kind of laundry I say..if it's recently purchased laundry...that doesn't need to be laundered yet...(not sure if thats even a word...but you catch my drift)
yes, well a man invented bras, panty hose, and corsets, so somehow i don't think we are even yet. LOL!
wow, those are some excellent choses there mrshife. i got a big gas out of the prune juice. see what i did there? teehee
**prints screen**
Thanks!
