Experience the secondhand horror of watching an engagement ring fall into a grate

TwitterFacebook

Police in New York City are searching for a couple whose engagement went slightly awry this weekend.

Security footage from the New York Police Department shows a man getting down on one knee to propose then promptly dropping the engagement ring down a subway grate in Times Square. 

It is unclear why he chose to propose atop a subway grate, but love makes you do wild things.

WANTED for dropping his fiancée’s ring in @TimesSquareNYC!
She said Yes – but he was so excited that he dropped the ring in a grate. Our @NYPDSpecialops officers rescued it & would like to return it to the happy couple. Help us find them? 💍 call 800-577-TIPS @NYPDTIPS @NYPDMTN pic.twitter.com/tPWg8OE0MQ

Firefighter stages elaborate proposal in fire station with the help of his crew

TwitterFacebook

Sometimes all you need is a little help from your friends. 

Firefighter Ashton Hanway who works at Fayetteville fire station in North Carolina, U.S. enlisted the help of his crew to stage a rather elaborate proposal for his girlfriend Lauren Wood. 

In a video, which has been viewed almost 12K times, Hanway and Wood stand atop a fire engine, which is parked beside another engine inside the station. His colleagues then, rather helpfully, drive the latter vehicle out of the way to reveal a surprise. 

Under the vehicle, the fireman’s hose had been twisted into a message for Wood. Which reads—yep you guessed it—”Will you marry me?” Read more…

Please don’t ever hide my engagement ring in food

TwitterFacebook

I don’t have a diary but if I did, my most detailed, intimate entries would likely be descriptions of cheeseburgers. I love cheeseburgers. Like, I occasionally ease myself to sleep by scrolling through the cheeseburger hashtag on Instagram.

But despite my undying burger love, I do not want my future engagement ring presented to me on a patty of beef and melted cheese. OK?

Marriage proposals that involve sticking the ring in food might seem like a good idea — especially when someone’s as obsessed with a specific food as I am with burgers — but they’re not. They’re lazy and absurd.

The sheer act of sticking a diamond ring into whatever food or drink you deem special enough for your significant other is not only dangerous, it’s medium-key disgusting, which is why food proposals need to stop. Read more…

A couple that got together over Twitter just got engaged the same way

Apparently this is what love is now.

A few years ago, a woman used Twitter to ask a man out.

I want to go on a date with @BenAxelrod

Maybe you’re thinking, “isn’t this exerting quite a lot of social pressure on the askee?” Well, it seems the man in question had his answer ready for such a happenstance.

@toreydanae you buying?
