Flashmob Proposal with LG World Record and the End of My Life!

I know it's not usual for me to talk about personal stuff here but the girlfriend just sent me this video with a nagging emoticon. I knew right away I was in trouble even before I clicked it. And hot damn I was right!



Apparently this guy got help from the LG World Record forum and organized a flashmob with over 100 people to proposed to his girlfriend. Now I'm happy for the dude, really, but another public proposal like this and my girlfriend might as well castrate me with a butcher knife. People! Stop being overly romantic so normal guys like me can live in peace!

I remember I was so addicted to this game on my smart phone when it was first released. I strongly believe that many people who ever played Air Penguin would agree that it is the most fun tilting game. Now it is brought to LG Smart TV. Not only we can play it on a massive screen, we can also play it in 3D. Instead of tilting the device, it is controlled by the motion sensor in the remote. It is available at $4.30 for unlimited play.

Journey through the icy South Pole to help Air Penguin save his family from melting ice caps. Who said penguins can't fly?! Make them flap their tiny wings!
