A letter to the guys

Dear fellow guys,

Today we celebrate the festival most people know as the National Women-walk-around-in-town-with-flowers Day (NWD) in which women walk around in town with flowers. As I was around in Suntec, I was rather stunned (read: disgusted) to see women holding small cheap bouquets of flowers. The roses look like they are on the verge of death plus some of the wrapping look like they were done by convicts who are paid 30cent per hour for the job. If not for the fact I was with friends, (and their boyfriends are bigger sized than me) I would certainly have went up to them and pass them my name-card.

“Next year, please tell your guy not be such a cheap ass and get you from decent flowers instead.”

Sure, they tell you how delighted they are getting flowers from you AFTER both of you promised not spend money on this occasion supposedly created by businessmen. How thoughtful of you. But that sweetness kinda gets crushed when everyone else has a prettier bouquet than them. But not to worry, there is help.

There is a plan to make all of this right. Contact bx for your flora needs in the future. Satisfaction guaranteed.

Regards,
Bx


Yes, you willingly spent 5mins of your life reading a sales pitch (10mins if you are slow). Sucker.
