Today, for my girlfriend's birthday, I got her an external hard drive and my grandmother's engagement ring. When she opened both boxes, I took her hand and looked deep in her eyes and told her to pick whichever she wanted. She took the external hard drive, even though she already has one. FML

Well....I mean.... This is gonna be harsh, but I'd be pretty disappointed if my boyfriend proposed to me like that. It's supposed to be romantic, you know? This just doesn't ...sparkle?... enough. I don't know. Maybe she was hitting the refresh key. Try again later?

Not really, if she didn't want to be engaged then she can say no

#132 is right, but I'd like to add that you can never have too many external hard drives.

^ Has a point. That's a lot of space. And cash.

I second #3 a 1 TB would be pretty ****. Also, I laughed at your execution of the proposal. Sorry, man.

agree with # 7. If she already had an external HD then why did u get her one ? If u would've just gotten her the ring then she wouldnt have to choose. lol.
