Valentine’s Day Six-Foot Tall Roses Giveaway
With Valentine’s Day right around the corner, it sends every attached or “it’s complicated” guy into gift giving confusion. First, you have to evaluate your relationship. If you’ve talked to the girl once, at a bar with dimmed lights, and you may or may not have made out – you don’t need to get her a gift. But for everyone else, you need to figure out if you are at the jewelry level or at the candy with card status. Remember, a Brita water filter is never an acceptable gift.
One lucky guy won’t have to stress over a gift because Organic Bouquet is giving away the world’s tallest roses, valued at nearly $280, to a Smoking Jacket reader to send to their girlfriend, wife, etc. These roses rise to 5-6 feet tall and are completely organic. Organic Bouquet is also a mission-based company focused on environmental, social and economic sustainability. Therefore, you can woo her with the tallest roses she’s ever seen and your oh-so caring, worldly heart. Maybe you’ll even get laid.
To ensure a romantic night, light a few candles and tell her about the far off land where these giant roses flourish. They grow on an Ecuadorian farm “nestled” between two volcanoes where fairies and unicorns run wild. Or not. To win see below:
To win this stress-free Valentine’s Day gift, leave a comment telling us about a time you and your girl got in a fight and what you did to win her back. If you’re in the dog house as we speak, tell us about it so we can help smooth it over with Organic Bouquet 6 foot tall roses.
The comment with the best “How to Get Out of the Doghouse Story” will win Organic Bouquet Roses to send to that special someone.
Giveaway closes Monday February 7th.
Be sure to provide a legit e-mail address when you comment so we can contact you.

How about a sorry-I-can-find-a-job-thanks-for-supporting-our-family gift?
My wife has been keeping our family and finances in line since my lay off in August 2009.
She deserves MORE than giant roses but it’s a start!
Thanks,
Scott

Like the time my buddies and I stayed up til 5am partying… the night before her sister’s wedding!
Needless to say she was pretty pissed. Mostly at the guy who upperdecked her hotel toilet than anything else.
I ended up surprising her with a weekend getaway to the mountains. It worked!

Don’t be a douche bag and build one in the first place. Treat your woman right and you won’t have to worry about getting out of the dog house.

Me and my woman got into a small argument about not doing enough around the house before she went on a short trip back home. While she was gone I made about a 30 different “coupons” that she could give to me that said certain things that she could turn into me such as, she gets to hold/control the remote control, I give her a massage, i cook dinner, i do the dishes etc. They also had quotes about love on them. I took these and hid them all around the house in places she would find them over time and i hid some in random pockets of her pants and jackets so she would find them randomly on different days and times to surprise her and put a smile on her face. When she got home from the trip the bed was covered with rose petals, we had a nice candle lit bath together and then over the next few days she found the coupons that I had not told her about and she loved it. It made her extremely happy.

One year I got fired on my now wife’s birthday. Her grandmother promptly died the next day. Feeling sorry for myself I didn’t really try to console her choosing instead to go on a weeklong bender. There was no easy fix for this level of relationship incompetency. So I was in the doghouse for months, until the pain of her loss had subsided and I finally found another job. So my way out of the doghouse was basically let enough time pass so she almost forgets what an ass you are. I finally stopped hearing about it about 3 years later.

I started home brewing beer this past month. On Sunday I put the fermenter in a spare bedroom closet, correct temperature, dark, very little activity in the room. Well, I came home to the airlock on my fementer having exploded all over the closet. Normally this wouldn’t have been a problem as it was a spare closet. However, the fiance’s wedding dress and vail were hanging in said closet. Most of the dress was covered by a dry cleaning bag, but there is still a fair amount of wort (young beer) on the bottom of the dress. The vail is most likely ruined. We are due to be married next month.

My girlfriend got furious at me for getting drunk with my friends after dinner with her on the night of my birthday. A few days later, for my actual birthday party I promised her that I would be on my best behavior for the party with all my raucous friends. Come 3am, I was playing one v one pong with a girlfriend. Apparently, I passed out sitting indian style on my floor with my facebook screen pulled up to MafiaWars. My girlfriend took a picture of me, MMS’d it to me saying “Good behavior, huh?” and left me a pink post-it on my bathroom mirror that read, “Pete, your car is at the train station.”
So, to make things better I had to drive an hour and a half to her at a damn farmer’s market, hungover as all hell. Still barely able to see with the bright sunlight, I had to grovel and admit defeat for submitting to peer pressure at my own birthday party, at a cafe in Oakland in front of dozens of eavesdroppers and passersby. I felt badly but she was being kind of a bitch. happy valentines day, hun.

I forcibly removed her shoes and started massaging her feet. 20 minutes later the bitching finally stopped and the loving resumed.

Like a complete dumbass I went out with my ex-girlfriend. Even stupider, I told my current girlfriend that I was doing it. I didn’t really see anything wrong with it. She was in town and we were just catching up. No harm, no foul.
Well, my current girlfriend went ape-shit on me and was in kill-mode for about 2 weeks. Mind you, this was the first time I was ever in the doghouse with her. So, after about 10,000 apologies and way too many orders of flowers, chocolates and hallmark cards, she finally saw that I am not a tool and worth keeping around.
So, in hindsight, a good idea: giving her 6 foot tall roses. A bad idea: going to dinner with an ex. God I’m an idiot.

She is a great girl and she never needed to see that ever. That’s why am in the dog house forever

I’ve been dating my girlfriend for two years, I thought I wanted to marry her so we went and picked out a ring. So far her birthday and Christmas have passed and I keep telling her the ring was her present. Needless to say, I’m in the doghouse, and these roses would make the perfect addition to my proposal….if I finally do it

Me and my girlfriend were at a club one night when I noticed that she wasn’t wearing any perfume. I asked why and she said that she only puts it on her wrists. I thought this was rather weird. There was another girl walking by so I decided to ask her where she puts on perfume. The girl stated that she puts it on her chest and neck and that putting it on her wrists was pointless. In my drunken haze, for no apparent reason, I blurted out “HEY, WE’RE LOOKING FOR A THIRD FOR OUR THREESOME, WOULD YOU LIKE TO JOIN”? I was expecting a laugh from the girl, but too my surprise, she was VERY ENTHUSIASTIC. She said we looked like a cool couple and then went up to my girlfriend and told her not to worry because she is “really into girls.” My girlfriend was VERY NOT ENTHUSIASTIC and was too stunned to say anything. The new girl gave me her contact info and told us to call her. My girlfriend was very upset after this and I was in the doghouse for a couple of weeks. I got out of it by mailing roses to her at her job as well as chocolates and a really nice card. Unfortunately, we never called the girl.

My girlfriend and i got into this huge argument and now she won’t even talk to me.the reason we went at it was because i broke her great grandmothers base.her great grandmother died last year and while we were fighting over the broken base i made some rude comments about her dead grandmother and she won’t talk to me and i want to win these roses to try and cheer her up a bit.
