I thought I knew what “say it with flowers” meant, but this gives it a whole new meaning…
Someone came with an… innovative idea. Let’s make a plastic rose. Attach a recorder. Let people record a 10-second message. It’s a Talking Rose! Wow, what a great Valentine’s present! NOT.
Plastic flowers suck in any shape and form. Plastic flowers that talk are also creepy. Nooo thank you.

This is seriously the cutest thing ever. Extremely geeky too - which is awesome. Everyone wishes for that special feeling when you want to shout to the world that you’re in love.
Shouting will probably earn you a few scowls, however, but who could object if you wear your heart on your chest?
It’s called the 8-Bit Dynamic Life Shirt. First step, buy two of them. Put one on, give the other to your partner. When you’re far away from each other, each t-shirt will display two and a half pixelated lit-up hearts. But get in a 2 meters radius of each other and the hearts will start lighting up until they reach full power!
Don’t have a significant other? Then you can profess your love to your PC, for example. Just buy a transmitter pack for $11.99 and place it near the object of your affection (bad pun, yeah), and your t-shirt will light up whenever you get close to it.
Absolutely awesome, and ThinkGeek is right on spot when it says it’s the ideal Valentine’s Day gift. Unless your partener hates modern technology, in which case stay away or you’re cause a relationship crisis. (But, since you’re reading this blog, admit it: geek is better.)

Girls like flowers. Admittedly, there are a few exceptions, but the rule is valid in most cases. The only thing: make sure you get her favorite flowers; red roses are nice, but so cliché.
If you have a girl with a real good sense of humor, you could give her a Beer Mug of Blooms. But make sure that she’d appreciate such a gift before hand. You don’t want your head to have to have a too-close encounter with said mug…
Maybe this would be more appropriate as a funny present from a girl to a beer-loving guy. But either way, $29.99 for a novelty gift with no other use… I say too much.

Programming is not men-only anymore (you might have noticed those two or five girls on your team). And, despite the “classic” computer-nerd image, programmers have feelings, which they sometimes want to express.
The include love babydoll tee lets you show your inner girly side without forsaking the geeky you. Now that you’ve included the love module, you can decide to use it or not… It’s your choice.
As for me, I love the fact that you can find nice geeky girl’s t-shirts. If I’m going to wear something, be it geeky or classy, I want it to look good on me (and most men’s t-shirts don’t). How about one of these for your girl on Valentine’s?

Valentine’s Day products have started to crop up everywhere. Some are nice, some are ugly, some are just silly. This product is the latter.
If you want to surprise your girlfriend on Valentine’s, you could try the Love Pirate Eye Patch. With one condition: that you both have a sense of humor. I doubt that anyone could think this is in any way sexy, but if you both like a bit of sillyness, it’s perfect. She’ll probably laugh her ass off if you show up wearing this (and only this), but hey, love should be fun, right?
