  2. Attention ladies and Gents! by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Attention Ladies! Every 14th of February men get the chance to display their fondness for
    their wife's or girlfriends by showering them with gifts, flowers,
    dinner, shows and any other baubles that women find romantic.
    Secret... guys feel left out. That's right... left out. There's no
    special holiday for the ladies to show their appreciation for the men
    in their lives. Men as a whole are either too proud or just too
    embarrassed to admit it. Which is why a new holiday has been created.
    March 20th is now officially "Steak and a Blow Job Day"
    Simple, effective and self explanatory. This holiday has been created
    so you ladies can have a day to show your man just how much you love
    him. No cards, no flowers, no special nights on the town. The name of
    the holiday explains it all... just a steak and a BJ. That's it. This
    twin pairing of Valentine's Day and Steak and a Blow Job Day will usher
    in a new age of love as men everywhere will try THAT much harder in
    February to ensure a more memorable March! It's like a perpetual love machine.

    If there are no spelling errors in this post then it's not the real Bob Abooey

    I was worried for a minute, there, but on re-reading I found this:

    Whew! Not an imposter after all.
