YES, IT’S THAT time of year again – when restaurants are full of awkward couples, and strawberries are placed in champagne for no obvious reason.
Today, millions around the world will be sending, receiving, enjoying and possibly regretting Valentine’s cards. But for every card with a touching message of romance, there’s one with a troubling undertone of ‘stalker’. For every lovingly designed masterpiece, there’s a cobbled-together Comic Sans monstrosity.
So to celebrate this momentous day, TheJournal.ie brings you 14 of the worst Valentine’s messages ever committed to 160gsm cardstock:
What a knob
@Gregson from the Block: still laughing :)
“And the Award for best proxy war goes to..”
It has been great acting I will admit.
The CGI and choreography excellent too!
Well I suppose he’s been acting like he’s on the front line for a while now with the constant wearing of the fatigues so why not get an Oscar. Congrats
@JedBartlett: he could have at least stuck on a tux to receive it…….
@JedBartlett: To be fair, while there’s certainly an element of optics around his battle fatigues, if I was Russia’s No. 1 target and could have missiles dropped on me at any moment, I know I’d prefer to have boots and cargopants on instead of loafers and shirt/tie combo. Loafers aren’t known for their rubble climbing abilities.
A nice gesture! Well done.
“We got the Oscar. War’s over boys, pack up- we’re going home”
Tropic Thunder in real life. Very odd.
Curious, is that a best actor award ?
Does this remind anyone of the 2004 film “Team America, World Police”? but worryingly this time it’s not puppet actors getting involved but a real one.
Amazing gesture and the principal of it too. Sean has been a vocal supporter of Ukraine
Was wondering as I was reading the article a few minutes ago, how long it would have taken the Russian bots to turn up saying how much Zelensky deserved the award….turns out it was almost immediately, almost as if they were waiting for the article….they must have been up all night trying to compose their comments.
Yes that will stop the war
Never go full Sean Penn
Well, he has 2 so he did keep 1 for himself
Didn’t Sean Penn visit El Chapo right before he was coincidentally detained by the authorities that had been unable to find him?
Anyone checked that statue for a gps tracking device?
What’s he meant to do with it?
“If I know this is here with you, then I will feel better and stronger for the fight.” Says one man to another who will never join a front line while handing him an Oscar. Never being mind forced to go to the front line to fight others that have been forced there too.
Where did Sean Penn get an Oscar lol
have your say
