stupid things from the store

* a series of miniature rants

Tacky. Just tacky.

I'm not even sure what they want the money for, but if they've stooped low enough to use a retarded holiday for their cause, I'll be sure to not donate.

It bears the messages and appearance of candy hearts. I hate things that do that. And the purses are damned expensive, too.

I believe you are suppossed to buy this, then give one to your sweetheart and keep the other. As if you two really need small plush hearts.

Okay, the picture has some glare on it, so I will describe the horrors of it. It's a Rugrats gel-pop that says "OH BABY". Think about that. Not only is it combining stupid cartoons with a candy no one ever liked, but it suggests pedophilia. A lot.

A Valentine's gift that plays a snippet of an old song? Nothing new, but these were so stupid I included them anyway.

This is a small plastic bucket for holding candy in. Cleverly enough, it's shaped like a candy heart. That alone isn't so bad... but dear God, look at what's written on it.
