Promise Rings?

This is my first blog post. Woo-hoo! Anywhocares, I am watching The Today Show as we speak. Don't hate. I like to ease into my day. They just aired a segment on promise rings entitled "Do Promise Rings Work?" What? Of course they do! I mean, just look at how effective wedding rings are in the prevention of infidelity! Jeez.

I'm reminded of an old joke, straight from the annals of "Truly Tasteless Jokes," a mainstay of my pre-teen canon. The joke was something like this: "What's grosser than gross? When your girlfriend does the splits and your best friend's class ring falls out." Substitute "class" for "promise" and you get extra irony points.

That being said, I'm for accessorizing and bling. So if one wishes to add a bit of flair to one's virginity, I don't see the harm in it.
