Bittersweets
Not entirely new, but new to you if you haven't seen 'em.
Despair Inc. is back:
DESPAIR INC. RELEASES NEW-AND-IMPROVED "BITTERSWEETS(TM)", THE REVOLUTIONARY VALENTINE'S DAY CANDIES FOR THE DEJECTED AND DYSFUNCTIONALLike the century-old candy 'conversation' hearts, BitterSweets are made of chalky-tasting sugar and have no nutritional value whatsoever. But unlike traditional candy hearts, which front romantic sayings like 'BE MINE' and 'KISS ME', BitterSweets are stamped with sour musings and mockeries perfectly suited to the dejected spirits of those who will either spend Valentine's Day alone and miserable, or locked in the soul-crushing clutches of a dysfunctional or co-dependent significant other.
