Today, for my girlfriend's birthday, I got her an external hard drive and my grandmother's engagement ring. When she opened both boxes, I took her hand and looked deep in her eyes and told her to pick whichever she wanted. She took the external hard drive, even though she already has one. FML

Well....I mean.... This is gonna be harsh, but I'd be pretty disappointed if my boyfriend proposed to me like that. It's supposed to be romantic, you know? This just doesn't ...sparkle?... enough. I don't know. Maybe she was hitting the refresh key. Try again later?

Why would you even propose like that.... its like you thought of the least romantic way possible thought about it and were like "yeah..... thats so stupid it just might work....." But if you insist on doing it idiotically again may I suggest doing it Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade style....

#42 You have to be ******** me... anyone who does film uses an external harddrive pretty much every day, and a lot of girls do film, including me. Do you think guys are the only people who know how to use computers?
