Luv / Horrors Local Paper Encourages Human-on-Pet Love
Posted by Wm.™ Steven Humphrey on Wed, Jan 11, 2012 at 3:44 PM
As you know, the Mercury has been publishing free reader valentines in our annual Valentine's Issue since way back in 2000. And we'll be doing it again this year, too! See next week's ish for details. Anyway, it's a fun idea, which I'm sure is why the Willamette Week is also giving it a shot. However, before you accuse them of ripping the idea off or anything, you should know that their reader valentines have one very important distinction...
Remember, this is not against the law. You are merely expressing how you love your pet—you're not actually doing anything.

I mean seriously. Read this to a bird and you'll have something. Right?! Oh I give up.
