Post Valentine JOW #965


Last week was Valentine’s Day, which I feel is one of the most pernicious of all the Hallmark Holidays.   Men are supposed to shower their ladies with gifts and romantic gestures.  I would suspect that the whole thing was made up by the feminists, except these days they are more involved with politics than romance; these days the whole subject of love is fraught with minefields.  In truth, love has always been perilous.   Are you familiar with that tingly feeling that you get in your body when you start to fall in love? That feeling is actually all of your common sense leaving your body.  Yes, the brain is the most impressive organ in our whole body. From the day you are born, it works 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, right up until you fall in love.  Here are some somewhat related jokes about Valentine’s Day.
--------------------------
Do you have a date for next year’s Valentine’s Day?
Yes, it is February 14th.
Men and women are different.
HOW TO IMPRESS A WOMAN Compliment her, cuddle her, kiss her, caress her, love her, stroke her, comfort her, protect her, hug her, wine and dine her, buy gifts for her, listen to her, respect her, stand by her, support her, go to the ends of the earth for her.
HOW TO IMPRESS A MAN Arrive naked... with beer.

Why do men like to fall in love at first sight? Because doing so saves them a lot of money.

A Renaissance Faire knight’s girlfriend sent him off to the pub while she stayed home to polish his medieval battle gear. She always said she wanted a night in, shining armor.

A nerdy pickup line: Hi.  Call me Microsoft. Can I crash at your place tonight?

A woman made the decision to break off her recent engagement.  Her friend said, “What happened? I thought it was love at first sight!”
To which the woman replied, “but the second and third looks changed my mind.”

Love is a form of amnesia where a girl forgets that there are about 1.2 billion other boys out there in the world.

Never laugh at your significant other’s choices because you happen to be one of them.
A visual joke -  
A T-Rex told his girlfriend, “I love you this much,” as he stretched out arms.
To which the girlfriend replied, “That’s not very much!”

Q: Daddy, why are all those cars beeping their horns?
A: Because there’s a wedding happening.
Q: Don’t we say the horn a warning signal, Daddy?
A: Exactly, son.

A husband and wife are drinking wine at home. The wife says, “I love you.”
The husband asks if that is her or the wine talking.
She replies, “It’s me talking to the wine.”

There were two antennas who fell in love and decided to get married. The ceremony was nothing fancy, but you could tell that they had a very strong connection.  And the reception was excellent.

Roger was buying an expensive bracelet, to surprise his girlfriend on Valentine's Day, at a very smart jeweler’s shop in Hatton Garden, London. The jeweler inquired, "Would you like your girlfriend's name engraved on it?"
Roger thought for a moment, grinned, then answered, "No, instead engrave 'To my one and only love'."
The jeweler smiled and said, "Yes, sir; how very romantic of you."
Roger retorted with a glint in his eye, "Not romantic - practical. This way, if we break up, I can use it again."

A man wanted Valentine's Day to be special, so he bought a bottle of absinthe and stopped by the florist's to order a bouquet of his wife's favorite flower: white anemones. Unfortunately, the florist was sold out of flowers and had only a few stems of feathery ferns. The man asked the florist to make a bouquet out of the ferns and the flask of liquor. He added a card and proceeded home. After a romantic candlelight dinner, he presented his wife with the gift. She opened the card to read, "Absinthe makes the heart grow fonder." With a tear in her eye, she whispered to him lovingly, "Yes, and with fronds like these, who needs anemones."
And finally, something completely different.
A fancy new grocery store opened near my home.  It has an automatic mister to keep the produce fresh.  Just before it goes off you hear the sound of distant thunder and the smell of rain.  As you approach the diary section you hear the lowing of cattle and the smell of fresh hay.  Near the egg section there is the pleasing aroma of bacon and eggs and the sound of eggs frying.
I don’t buy toilet paper there anymore.
