Valentine's Day
 

I LOVE this idea:

Zoo will name a rat after your ex, feed it to a snake on Valentine's Day


The San Antonio Zoo in Texas said it will name a rat after your ex and feed it to a snake on Feb. 14. The zoo is charging $25 for this service, but there's a cheaper alternative that's just as spiteful.

For only $5, you can name a cockroach after your ex, and the zoo will feed it to a bird or another animal.

Even if you (or your exes) don't live in Texas, you can still participate in this "feeding frenzy" because the zoo will be live-streaming the event on Facebook.

You must submit the first name of your ex on the zoo's website by Feb. 13.

Absolutely hysterical. Love the idea.

Brilliant! They will be raking in the money -- this is a much needed service, I think.

I imagine that a fair number of people will be donating in honor of someone who is not (yet) their ex...

I still remember from many years ago sending a boss I didn't much care for a dozen dead roses in a black box with black tissue paper (there was an actual company that did this) it was funny.
I did spring for a roach because it is such a great idea. If I find any of my exes paid for a rat for me I'll up my donation.

I'll do this year-round...

Hmm, I don't have any ex-wives. I picked the right one as my first choice. :)

How is the ex notified of this donation?
It seems pointless otherwise.

The actual event is live-streamed and/or available on Youtube afterward. So... send an email?

Hmmm. This could be interesting.

This is clever. I have no ill feelings about women in my past relationships, but with the frequency of less than amicable dissolution of partnerships, this provides a meal to the animal that would need it (even if it would get the meal anyway), some funding to the institution (even if they were not lacking), and some cathartic effect for the payer. It is a good idea.
