Of the 73% of men who buy flowers on Valentine's Day, 50% of those guys are gay. Of the 27% of women who buy flowers, 90% of those women are buying them and sending them to themselves to make people in the office think somebody loves them.

Actually that's just mentioning a survey that was done. Not the gay guy thing but 8 million women a year buy themselves flowers on Valentine's day and send them to themselves. I found it humorous.
