Just in time for belated Valentine’s Day: you and your sweetheart can have your names and faces inserted into a crappy falling-in-love montage on a DVD that looks like it was made as a high school group graphic design project. You and your loved one will want to watch your grainy faces pasted on the bodies of herky-jerky disco dancers, hot-air-balloon enthusiasts, and people who like to cuddle in the corn for some reason over and over for hours. And don’t worry about value, as the narrator says: “Your face and names are seen over fifty times!” Omg honey, we’re gonna be FAMOUS!:
As with Elizabeth Kubler-Ross’s stages of grief, a person watching this video goes through a series of ideas and emotions. The Personalized Love Story DVD Viewing Stages are different for each individual. Here were mine. Feel free to add your own:
1. Doesn’t it require less effort than this to be actually famous now?
2. Wait, hmmm, I kind of want one of these. Maybe the dude could be played by James Franco. I could put it on my blog!
3. They should have an “adult” version that they sell at Spencers! (Also with James Franco.)
4. Which couple that I know should I give this to as an engagement gift?
5. What if your personal love story involves breaking up and getting back together a bunch of times? Can that be on the DVD?
6. (Something terrible about Rihanna and Chris Brown.)
7. Wait, I’ve got it, this could be the ultimate embodiment of the That’s Your Girlfriend/That’s Your Boyfriend joke! Gabe frolicking in the corn with, I dunno, the Octomom. Shit yes.
Anyway, it’s only $29.95. Go nuts.

Everyone has seen that episode of The Simpsons, right?
“I’m going to read my favorite book….magazine”
Hee. The whole time I was watching this I was thinking “Todds interests include being quiet on car trips, clapping along with songs, and diabetes!”
Wow. I didn’t know it could get worse than those personalized tapes for little kids.
(Though admittedly, I loved mine. “Let’s take a hike in the woods, ADRIENNE! / We’ll have a picnic, isn’t it good, ADRIENNE!)
My tape totally had a song about taking a bubble bath.
My tape didn’t exist because the technology didn’t yet.
Me either. However, I am ancient enough that I had a personalized BOOK. Yes children, once upon time, people read things written on PAPER!
Aw, I had a book too. I travelled to space with ALF!
McNuggets.
my best attempt at a youtube-like comment: I like how the arrow goes right in the asshole at 0:26.
Yeah they both took it in the ass in this video…
James Franco would just sleep through filming
They’re a couple that has lots in common, like necks that don’t move and non-corporeal asses. They can love however they want!
perfect gift for my girlfriend’s birthday. only, i’ll put a picture of her pug’s head on the man’s body instead.
now what should the personal messages read…
Number 5.
Your stages of grief = my exact progression.
