Ladies, Be Careful What You Promise In Those "Love Coupons"

In this well-done UCB Comedy video (they're killing it lately!), a happy couple learns that a forgotten "Love Coupon" can turn into a curse. Not totally completely safe for work, but not porn or anything:

I love the "preparation" scene, and the way everyone treats the coupon like it's legally binding.

There is no expiration date on LOVE

A love coupon is just an admission that you don't know anything about your girlfriend.

Unless your girlfriend is a penny-pinching thrift fiend, and you have a history of charging her for sexual favors.
Then i'd say it makes perfect sense. Great gift!

That must have been one of the pre-made ones from Urban Outfitters.

How did the coupon get into the car? Was he going to try to redeem it elsewhere?

The preparation was pretty funny. I know that scared, bathroom-before-anal (gay)-sex frantic experience. Why females (who have no prostate) do it makes nooo sense to me.

in my female experience, it requires enough alcohol to get you to the point of gaining sexual pleasure from, say, having sand rubbed into your eyes, or being crucified.

Ladies and Gents, my apologies but I need to hijack this string immediately with the following IMPORTANT NEWS:

http://gawker.com/5299923/its-fish-wrapper-not-weed-wrapper/gallery/?selectedImage=2

Say it ain't so!!

Lindsay, I have no doubt that I speak for all of the snarky, soulless commenters on this site when I say that you will be missed dearly. Your yin to Gabe's yang was perfect, and despite all of the cynical comments left on this site, we all come here for one reason. To laugh, smile, and maybe throw up in our mouths. I'm proud to say your posts made me do all of those things many times over.

This news just gave me a serious case of the Mondays. All the best and keep us posted on where you land. :(

I'm disheartened by this news, too! Lindsay, but who will post the cute slow loris videos we all crave? You will be sorely missed.

talk about fuckin' bad idea jeans!!!
we need to get in touch with the ceo of the internet and do something about this!


lindsay, i've said this once and I'll say it again - fuck the haterz (no gwyneth paltrow). go out with a bang - inject yourself into the stereogum mainframe computer and become pure energy.
i'm crying so many e-tears right now.

blurgh, sorry to hear. I love this site, not just because of the consistent Lots of Loves, but also that you guys don't resort to the cheap homophobic/sexist/racist jokes. Good luck Lindsay.

No! Lindsay, you're one of the best bloggers! Period!

And you're one of the best female bloggers because you're always funny without putting anyone down. You have a great attitude and I can always count on your posts to make me laugh, without laughing at anyone's expense. And, you can call out bullshit without turning into Jezebel.

Gabe is great comedian too, but Videogum needs Lindsay!

I wonder which love coupons would lead to an immediate break-up.

I'm assuming furries...

Noooo, can we get a love coupon that makes Lindsay stay? I even made this for her! (I did not make that for her). A balance is required!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ro3ebLeu-GY

probably EXACTLY like that.

but yeah no slow loris :( (thats not all you're good for even lindsay! OMFG I BET THIS IS WHY THERES NO MORE FRIDAY FIGHTS??? CUS GABE CAN SOLO THE COMMENTS THING? although he can just fight himself i guess, but maybe that gives him too much existential angst.)

That's really bad news bears! The Lindsey news, not the okay video. The okay video was okay.
