Diamonds Are For Never!

And now, in a complete juxtapose to Friday's post, a satirical ad. While the humour may be a little tactless, the message is valid nonetheless.



What the fuck is with jewellery anyway? I know, I know. I’m a guy, I wouldn’t understand these things...
Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for buying presents for that special someone, but wouldn’t a new car or a computer upgrade be so much cooler/more useful than a tiny little rock? A rock! It does nothing! Why the hell would you want a shitty little pebble over, say, a 40GB iPod?

The only conclusion I can come to is this:

A diamond is just a woman’s way of saying to her friends, "Look at what my boyfriend bought me! Aren’t you jealous? I’m such an attention whore."
She can show off the monetary status of her current partner, without ever having to say a word.

This can have severe repercussions. Her friends will now expect their boyfriends to do the same, and if these men also become submissive to their partner’s constant nagging, a ripple effect is created.
Seriously, the only people jewellers make money off are men, because they’re the ones that buy the fucken things.

Men, we must hold our positions. Unite against the common evil! Boycott the buying of bling-bling for your missus.

    You twit. The diamond shows her how much YOU care and then she shows her friends so they are jealous she has a man that actually thinks outside of his little world. If all men bought flowers ,chocolate or jewellry then the novelty will wear off
