Wrong Date for Valentine’s Day
- Her eyes say “Yes” but her probation officer says “No.”
- When sober, he looks like Beavis. When drunk, he looks like Butthead.

- He’s hired three naked kids with little bows and arrows to “set the mood.”
- Upon closer inspection, that label reads, “Victoria’s Secretions.”
- “Would you like some more wine, Mom?”
- Any combination of the words “Susan” and “Powter” on her driver’s license.
- She tells the *waiter* that she isn’t wearing any underwear.
- He keeps hitting you up for a $33.5 million loan.
- His 10 words-per-minute typing means you spend most of the night staring at your monitor.
- The “hit” by the Giancomo Family was traumatic enough, but NOW you’re stuck with the check.
- Instead of “saying it with flowers,” he says it with squash.
