Apparently the thing to give your beloved this Valentine's Day is a new cell phone. I'd have never known this, were it not for all the advertisements during the games yesterday. And today I went to Sprint to check my account and the main page was all about their Valentine's Day special, because "love can't wait."WTF?
The new Centro, which until now came only in red or black, is available in pink, just in time for V-Day.
Perhaps I'm behind the curve here, but it would never occur to me to woo my beloved on Valentine's Day with the gift of a cell phone. I'm not especially good at gift giving and I tend to be far too practical when considering gifts. But a cell phone seems to me to be among the least romantic gifts one could give to the love of her life.
As for Court and me, we don't even exchange gifts on Valentine's Day.

Pretty phone, too bad we're leaving Sprint next month!
We don't exchange gifts on Valentine's either. Most years we don't even exchange cards. We do, however, almost always go out to eat. This year we're part of the planning committee for a Valentine's Dinner/Dance for the three UUA churches in our area.
"love can't wait", means we can't wait for you to sign up for another two years and spend way to much $ on this gimmicky phone!
Sheesh. I don't get the absolute cheapest phone, but pretty close. I don't really see it as a power accessory. It's more a lifeline to my beloved. Hey wait... maybe I should get a better phone, lol!
I'd consider it, but only because: 1) we live 3800 miles from each other, and thus the phone is a lifeline for us too; and 2)she's a total techno-freak, and would probably love it:-)
/leaving in 11 days to go see her-wheeeee!!
I'm not sure I'm on the same page with you here. I gotta tell you, I'd get lots of bonus sex for months if I bought BP an iPhone for V-Day. But she's a gadget geek, so, you know.
TG LOVES the iphone i gave her for x-mas. ....and yes zoe, the bonus sex that the giver receiveth is out of this world
If you're going to give a techie a gift, a bouquet of ram is a great avenue to take....
Ctrl+Alt+Del: Valentine's Day Gift
We don't do Valentine's Day either. (surprised?)
psuacoustician: that cartoon is funny.
I got major bonus points when I gifted "A" with a new phone.
I'm just saying...
yeah... we just go straight for the bonus sex... why spend money for that. :)
I'm with you on the cellphone thing, but then I hate phones of any kind .. LOL.
Not a phone, but...something.
Yeah, Kim and I are definitely on the same page when it comes to phones.
The bonus sex, however... yah, I could go for that. ;)
