For all you married geeks out there....
I searched and could not find this (off) topic, so.....
How did you propose to your husband or wife. Was it your standard nice restaurant candle light dinner proposal or something flashy?
Me: Wife (girlfriend at the time) and I were at an all day concert. The sun was setting. We were sitting on the grass area above the seated area waiting for one of our favorite bands (Cake) to come on. I got up to get a little snack from one of the "cigaret girl" type peoples that sell candy and glow sticks, etc.... While there I saw she had these big ugly florecient green rings. They were about 1 1/2 inches in diamiter. When you push the top of it red LEDs flash under the semi-transparent plastic of the top of the ring. So I bought one ($5.00) and went back to our blanket on the grass. I knelt down, took her hand and put the ring on her. She smiled and jokingly said "What, are you asking me to marry you?" I pushed the top of the ring and the lights went off. She giggled. I said "Yes." She laughed a little more and said "Sure, OK." I then let her know I was serious. Then we both cried and enjoyed the rest of our concert (and lives) together.
Don't worry, we went out the next day and got her a proper ring, but she keeps that ugly green thing on the night stand on her side of the bed.
