“The Video Guide to Successful Seduction”

Now that Valentine’s Day weekend is upon us, many of us are looking to add a spark to our romantic lives. Thankfully, “The Video Guide to Successful Seduction” posted below is here to help. This unintentionally hilarious ’80s relic may not put your special someone in the mood for love, but it should, at the very least, score a laugh.

And it just gets better from there. Later in the video, a man (in perhaps the loudest fuchsia, purple, yellow and blue shirt I have ever seen) talks about the time a woman invited him to join her in the jacuzzi. “She said now or never,” he tells us. “I’m glad I took the jacuzzi, because she’s a great person.” Asked what makes a man sexy, a woman –standing next to a guy wearing painfully tight jeans, a T-shirt that seems to have a drawing of sea mammals on it, and a bright orange trucker hat — says, “The way he dresses.” My favorite moment is when a guy who looks like he was ripped from the “SNL” sketch “Bill Swerski’s Superfans” gives us this handy tip: ”In Detroit, you need a dollar, a 12-pack of beer, a gram of coke and a whip.”

MUMBAI (Reuters) – Thousands of Indians, many fuming over a recent assault on women in a pub, are vowing to fill bars on Valentine’s Day and send cartons of pink panties to a radical Hindu group that has branded outgoing females immoral.

A “consortium of pub-going, loose and forward women,” founded by four Indian women on social networking website Facebook has, in a matter of days, attracted more than 25,000 members with over 2,000 posts about the self-appointed moral police.

The women said their mission was to go bar-hopping on February 14 and send hundreds of pink knickers to Sri Ram Sena, the militant Hindu group that has said pubs are for men, and that women should stay at home and cook for their husbands.
