Everybody may think that being a couple is all about romance, long-stemmed roses and candle-lit dinners. So here are some tips on romance from a more jaded point of view.

Silence is golden

Let out some gas and see how much they love you…

Stop…

…And laugh at all the people stuck in traffic (suckers!).

But more importantly, someone else’s food always tastes better.

Walk tall and celebrate your differences …

Because walking like other chickens is just so mainstream.
