Tardy Lovers Nationwide Rue Missed Opportunity.

[Abhi Kantamneni]

    Having missed a perfect opportunity yesterday, tardy lovers across the nation took refuge under the comforting umbrella of the internet blogosphere.

" I can't believe I missed Valentines Day" laments Shane DeCamp on his Facebook page. "I only have my own sluggish behavior to blame :( ."

Research from the Dew Institute suggests that the perfect conditions necessary for the sincere expression of your innermost feelings for someone you love are likely to exist only on one particular day of the year:- Valentines Day.

"Picking up a bunch of flowers, a box of cheap candy or a mass produced generic greeting card and other rampant acts of consumer spending driven by impassive corporations clearly trumps any attempts by individuals to spontaneously and regularly reaffirm their love and affection for the most special people in their lives," says Chief Researcher Andy Hamiltonian.

This concise but poignant Tweet from user @Vampirez_r_kool accurately summarizes the pain and anguish of the entire nation:-  "Suks 2 wait 4 anotha yr b4 she let me put it in da butt :(    #sadpanda"

Hilarious!  Yet still, I love to get one of those cards, and a bunch of flowers.  He can keep the cheap candy.

I'm surprised I can laugh this early in the morning and with a Benadryl hangover, but I did.  That last line is PERFECT!!  Thanks for the face muscle exercise.  Now I'm hearing a rap song:  Put it in da butt -- (Insert James Brown scream) -- Put it in da butt...
