Crushable Presents: Homemade Valentines!
We here at Crushable aren’t the biggest fans of Valentine’s Day. But there’s one thing we can get behind: handmade Valentines. However! Buying crayons and using your remedial craft skills can just be a lot of work. And sending them through the mail? Who has time for that. So, let Crushable do the work for you!
We’ve created a batch of handmade Valentines with personal messages that we’re sending to friends and family. The best part? Sending one is as simple as sharing a bit.ly link (the one above is: http://bit.ly/hLpmQC) or saving the pic into an email. We’ll have more for you on Monday. But in case you want to get a jumpstart on sending remedial valentines this year, check out the options below. More »

Video: SeamlessWeb Is Full Of Valentine’s Lies
Look, no one in the world loves SeamlessWeb more than me. The food delivery service has single-handedly ruined my bank account, my waistline, and my ability to tolerate any form of sunlight as I can now get all my nourishment without ever leaving my desk.
But this Valentine’s Day “promotion” going on at SeamlessWeb right now is crap. More »
Am I Right Ladies: Can’t Buy MYSELF Love
Valentines Day falls on a Monday this year. Looks like my case of the Mondays is about to become a CRATE, am I right ladies? I mean come on, it’s like I need a snooze button for my snooze button. Anyway, you can run but you can’t hide from the usual suspects spreading love day propaganda all over your commercial breaks. Accept it or turn off your television. So just accept it, because TV is the only thing keeping you from spending Valentine’s Day completely alone. More »
A Case Against Generic Valentine’s Day Gifts
Can we all just agree that Valentine’s Day is the most headache-y holiday of the year? Not to sound like a jerk (because I also hate New Years and Halloween gives me a panic attack), but every time it gets close to February 14th – relationship or no – I just want to tell everyone in the world to shut up.

8 Nicki Minaj-Branded Valentine’s Day Gifts Better Than These Pink Flowers
Guess what? If you head over to 1-800 Flowers right now you can order a bouquet of specially-branded Nicki Minaj flowers! So, what are they? Rainbow-colored orchids in a bed of neon baby’s breath? Fire-breathing birds of paradise? Nope, they’re, um, regular old pink roses. So, nothing to do with Nicki, then? Well screw that: If we’re going Nicki, we’d rather get (or give!) a Valentine’s Day gift that really captures the essence of Miss Minaj. More »

Gleek Of The Week: Love Songs For Lauren Zizes
Glee is one of those hard shows to watch, because you never know how seriously you are supposed to take it. On the one hand, the show deals with real issues like homophobia and small-mindedness. On the other hand, it’s still essentially a musical, meaning that characters will often break from reality and start singing. Which would be fine, if these same characters didn’t so often break from themselves…or at least what we supposedly know about them. More »
Crushable’s Cat Lady: Cat Stare Your Way To The Perfect Valentine’s Day Gift
Dear Cat Lady,
I’m sending you a picture of my kitten, Fazoola, dressed up as a heart (complete with pumping blood!), because Valentine’s Day is coming up… and I have Valentine’s Day problems (besides all the fake blood staining my couch). I looked at my boyfriend’s browser history, and all Google-shopping-signs point to him planning to celebrate our love by buying me… a blender. A blender! It’s like he has some sick fantasy of me whipping up his protein powders in the morning – but let me tell you, I have more self-respect than that. How can I convince me to buy him something that I actually want?
Help!
Not Willing to Whip It
Dear Whip It,
Have you ever seen a cat get its way? Say, for example, that you’ve hidden its favorite catnip chew toy on top of the refrigerator. Does the cat whine in front of the fridge, making pathetic, futile jumps up towards the inaccessible place, as if it’s the refrigerator’s fault, not yours, that the toy is out of reach? No way – that type of behavior is strictly for the dogs. More »
The Passive-Aggressive Guide To Getting Your Guy A Valentine’s Day Gift
A few years ago, we were in a fairly new relationship when Valentine’s Day hit — with a guy who somehow didn’t own a coffee maker! Don’t get us wrong, the dude was a coffee drinker, he just filled his mornings with little plastic cups from the deli instead of making a fresh pot each day. So when the heart-emoticon holiday rolled around, what did we get him? A coffee maker! (Plus a couple pounds of gourmet beans.) He was happy, we were ecstatic, and Valentine’s Day was a success. So this time around, skip the box of chocolates or that tie your guy isn’t going to wear anyway, and make this year’s V-Day gift work for you. More »

25 Crushable Guys Under 25 – 2010
What does it mean to be “Crushable”? We’ll be looking to these guys, who we’ve deemed the MOST crushable young men making their mark on Hollywood and beyond, the set the bar high for those who come into fame after them.
We’ve watched many of them mature from Disney darlings into grown men with pecs and — gasp! — facial hair (we’re looking at you, Zac Efron and Corbin Bleu). Others, like Taylor Lautner and Aaron Johnson, are still baby-faced, but their upcoming work this year (and their recently revealed six packs) will shoot them into sex symbol status before year’s end.
Some of the names and faces on this list might be unfamiliar to you, but trust us, by this time next year, you will be more than familiar with quite a few of these cuties — and probably have crushes on them, too. If you don’t already. More »

Emma Roberts talks texting, Valentine plans
If you wanted to get a hold of Emma Roberts to congratulate her on the success of her movie Valentine’s Day, which topped this weekend’s box office with an estimated $52.4 million, texting would probably be the best method. The 19-year-old actress told the LA Times that although she’s tried to cut down lately, she, like most of us, relies on texting as a main method of communication.
“Our generation is definitely all about the texting and the e-mailing and the… More »
