Weird Valentine's Gifts: Anatomically Correct Heart Jewelry, Flying Cards, Foot-Soaking Boots And More

Valentine's Day is a weird holiday in many ways.

Although it started out as a day to honor one or more early Christian martyrs named Saint Valentine, since the 1840s, it has been a manufactured holiday used to sell cards, chocolate, flowers and other romantic gifts.

But romance is in the eye of the beholder and not every person or relationship appreciates the one-size-fits-all approach to gifts of love.

Especially someone who is weird.

Don't worry, HuffPost Weird News has come to your rescue with a list of bizarre gifts sure to get your beloved's heart racing.

Whether that's a good thing is up to you. We can't do everything.

And don't forget - nothing says "I love you" like the gift of a spatula

Gee....I found an old tire along the road....took it home, wrapped it up along with a box of M&M's.......I am sure I will get a lot of affection for that good deed.....hopefully she'll stay gone for a long...long time.

my birthday is valentines day... one year i got a compass on a necklace... another year, an ex got me a silver heart on a chain (and as he put the chain around my neck, it snapped in half) I am glad that I am now married with children and can expect goofy cards with scribbles and the routine candy and flowers... please, no surprises...

One year I sent what I thought was a pretty good gag card to a GF. All the Valentine cards were so schmaltzy I went to the regular card section. Got a birthday card from the "Niece" section. On the part where it said Happy Birthday I crossed out Birthday and wrote Valentines Day underneath in magic marker. The place where it said "to my niece" I crossed out "niece" and put Gf's name. Then I wrote a nice little love note. She was pissed. Total bomb.

Love the heart, but misquote on auricles and ventricles, actually are aorta and it's branches off the arch and then theirs also the vena cava's; so sorry just had to put that in there
