Contrary to popular belief, I have nothing against “love”—in fact, I make it all the time! Kaaaaaaaa-ZING-A-LING-A-LING! But seriously. In this video a news anchor lures his girlfriend onto his show under false pretenses and then proposes to her on-air. Think that sounds awkward? OMIGOD, you don’t know the half of it. At the mid-point I was saying aloud, “No… no… no…” and by the three-quarter mark I was saying, “NONONONONONONOOOOOOOOOO!!!” And then at the end I was howling with laughter, because this guy comes off as a dick.

HOWEVER! Maybe I just hate true love because I’m (as you know) a somewhat terrible person. YOU BE THE JUDGE!

Bang bang, choo-choo train, let me see you shake that thang. Wm. Steven Humphrey is the editor-in-chief of the Portland Mercury and has held the job since 2000. (So don’t get any funny ideas.)
