Valentines Day Ideas

[Disclaimer]

It's coming up soon-like, and since the best idea I can come up with for this useless Hallmark holiday was - a snow shovel for her to clean my driveway with after she's done serving me sammiches and beer.

That didn't go over well.

All she tells me is 'I like shiny things'. Which as John astutely pointed out,

‎nothing says "i love you" like a superficial and over-valued rock clawed from the guts of the earth by slave labor

I'm wholly opposed to buying jewelry, so I decided to turn to the real men and women of ORDN for suggestions of materialism or cheap experiences that Valentines Day warrants.

Thx in advance.

do what I would do. Get her something that you will probably use more than her

[Flying Brick]

I've bought Silverfox an oil change kit and a hairless rat as previous V-day gifts. She loved both.

Helps to measure out the blow

a puppy, girls also love fluffy things

[chevysoldier]

What's she into?

Shiny things. Didn't you read the OP?

[gen3flygirl]

you could get some polish so that she can detail your bikes and they will be nice and shinny

Hookers and Blow? WTF? Is this a serious question.

Im having some cookies delivered to my gf's work. Look into local cupcake places that might deliver.

LMAO funny, very funny

Buying jewelry sucks..I advise against it. Buy her a spa gift card. She'll be out of your hair for a bit. And at least you don't have to be reminded of the money you wasted on jewelry everytime you see her wearing it and you need new shoes..

Doesn't like flowers

Chocolates make chicks fat

Doesn't want a massage

No more animals in the house, one cat is enough.

But I'm having a good time reading all these to her. She appreciates a sense of humor, but it doesn't get me off the hook.

the back of your hand.

[jbot]

a nickel plated gun and a chromed shovel (she likes shiny?). to remind her that there is ALWAYS a way out of shitty relationship.

the only answer is piihb. clearly.

PIIHB and tell her the holiday is wack. Honestly, I think it means more when you do random things during the year than the same day that everyone else is doing it because society tells you to. I just do a little gift and a card. I'm an awesome husband year round.

A visa gift card she can use anywhere.. those are the best, dinner and a movie never gets old. A little quality time together is what all women want. I hope chivalry isn't totally dead here.

[Disclaimer]

quality time.

It's me we're talking about here. The gift would be to send her AWAY so she doesn't have to deal with me for a weekend.

[hollywood3586]

well the card thing is still a good idea i guess, its shiny money

[Beegreenstrings]

Uh... Yeah... Wait that is a apron. yeah I would get a arrow in the ass for that.

a puppy, girls also love fluffy things

Negative Ghost rider, we have 4 now.

A pair of Grado SR325is (shiny) with a Headroom Airhead amplifier. Include a new album from one of her favorite bands in whatever format is compatible with her music player.

chivalry IS dead, and women killed it!

Invite one of her girlfriends over, serve tequila and rohypnol, let the good times ensue...

OR, go to the grocery store, pick up things she likes to eat, prepare a really nice dinner for her, serve a good cab (or whatever wine she likes), maybe a quality port for apres dinner.

Buying baubles is just too commercial/lacking feeling or thought. Same with a gift card.

One of those mushy cards telling her how important she is (assuming she is), how lovely she is, blah blah blah. Chicas like those, allegedly.

Or as previously stated (and I was gonna say): PIIHB. Maybe use some lube since it's Valentine's...
