Has anyone else been watching the Helzberg Diamond ads about 'you're not THAT guy SO COUGH UP A ROCK...THREE OR MORE IS BETTAH'?

We have.

Um.

I expressly told Jim not to get me diamonds. Ever. One, they're boring. Two, I can buy them for myself if I suits me to do so. And three, the fashion in which they enter the market is so bloody, I don't want to ruin your day going into the details.

No. Romance != diamonds.

However, this one ad did spark a bit of discussion.

[Poll #1135374]

Considering my trepidation, it should be obvious at this point, right?

Yeah, 'Those Guys' do exist - I got one of them - and damn, I ain't getting pw0ned on Valentine's Day by him. *starts considering alternatives to Hallmark*

I seriously doubt the advertiser had that in mind when they made the ad.

Uh oh.
