Oh TF2… your crazy Mann Co.  items will be the death of me!
At least we’re getting some decent entertainment out of these virtual wedding rings.

    I seriously hope these are photoshops and people didn't seriously spend that much money x.x

  2. smashpro1 on February 17th, 2012 1:47 am

    Cheaper than a real engagement ring…

  3. AngelAreku on February 17th, 2012 1:49 am

    Guy love conquers all! Having no girlfriend isn't a problem for me! NOPE!

    I'll be IM'ing my bromance partner.

  4. MasterLuigi452 on February 17th, 2012 1:49 am

    I saw Reddit+4Chan and Anne+Hitler combination with my own eyes.
    Man the entier Halolz folks were laughing hard.
    Good collection SirKemper!

  5. ThePinkSpartan on February 17th, 2012 1:51 am

    That depends on the girl, Smash.

    Spent less than a tenth of what 'professionals' say I should have on the engagement ring, and my wife still cherishes years later.

    Diamonds… are overrated.

  6. Zeeb288 on February 17th, 2012 1:57 am

    Aw, it didn't have the one named "THIS TOTALLY COUNTS"

  7. LitmusRemnantal on February 17th, 2012 2:05 am

    why u-u

    oh well, haters gonna hate?

  8. ChaosController on February 17th, 2012 2:07 am

    I love this post so much just for the Scrubs song. God I miss that show.

    Also: rel="nofollow"> rel="nofollow">

    You missed one. (And no, this one isn't a joke.)

  9. CosmicSkyscrapa on February 17th, 2012 2:08 am

    What happened with the Mass Effect post?

  10. BTSnoogans on February 17th, 2012 2:23 am

    That feel when you pay $100 for an in-game item and get rejected.

  11. Nick Soapdish on February 17th, 2012 2:23 am

    That is so silly. How on earth can you wear a diamond ring as a hat? Hopefully they bring out a jewellery box hat for this.

  12. BTSnoogans on February 17th, 2012 2:24 am

    Not for me. I got an imaginary ring for my imaginary girl.

  13. Nick Soapdish on February 17th, 2012 2:28 am

    That is right. Burger, onion and squid rings are all acceptable substitutes.

  14. NotB0b on February 17th, 2012 2:36 am

    They have already made over $10,000 through them already.
    I wonder if it notifies people when they are rejected……
    That would be embarrassing, not only do you get turned down by your fiancée for thinking a fake ring would count, but also announcing your failure to 30,000 people….

  15. TransPM on February 17th, 2012 2:48 am

    Appropriate, seeing as you would wear a ring on your hand and all…

  16. SirRainbowBlitz on February 17th, 2012 2:50 am

    Nice. This made it to the site. I remember someone mentioning that they were keeping track of all the good ones. Still… is it really worth $100?

  17. SirBlitz on February 17th, 2012 2:59 am

    Shawn done goofed. Wrong character.

  18. Factcheck on February 17th, 2012 3:24 am

    It was a fail.

  19. blargenth on February 17th, 2012 3:33 am

    My favorite has to be "Anne Frank has accepted Adolf Hitler's 'No Hard Feelings'! Congratulations!"

    Just the fact that Valve made that happen makes me smile.

  20. Zyquux on February 17th, 2012 3:42 am
  21. CosmicSkyscrapa on February 17th, 2012 3:47 am

    I know he did, but a post is a post even if it is a mistake. BTW, Ash looks awesome in ME3.

  22. GanjalfTheGreen on February 17th, 2012 3:53 am

    So that's what Irene looks like.

  23. BTSnoogans on February 17th, 2012 4:06 am

    Is a promotional in-game item from a free to play game that doesn't do anything but send a message to everyone playing said free to play game worth $100?
    Hell no!

  24. Fambini on February 17th, 2012 4:20 am

    you know….
    its like the golden wrench in a way
    HARDLY ANYONE is going to have these rings…

  25. tstriker1 on February 17th, 2012 6:34 am

    *looks at 0:45* OH Shawwwwwwwwwwwwn, who is this Zvisk person you've giving your heart to?

  26. tstriker1 on February 17th, 2012 6:47 am

    I found it coincidental that I had a Neon Genesis Evangelion Marathon and saw "Rei Ayanami has accepted Shiji Ikari's "Become one with me."! Congratulations!"

  27. Shawn Handyside on February 17th, 2012 7:19 am

    It was up for like, 60 seconds before I realized I was referencing the wrong character. I'll post it again later.

  28. Skrist on February 17th, 2012 7:29 am

    You've never seen people with disposable wallets full of $100's, have you?

  29. Skrist on February 17th, 2012 7:30 am

    That feel when Valve releases an update that tells everyone else when you get rejected.

  30. Skrist on February 17th, 2012 7:32 am

    They make burger rings? 'O'
    Why doesn't anyone ever tell me these things?

  31. HughbertEsq on February 17th, 2012 8:02 am

    Z-Z-Zvisk?
    But… Shawn…. I thought you were mine in that never-having-met-you kinda way….
    Oh The Torment…….

  32. HughbertEsq on February 17th, 2012 8:06 am

    I would've loved to have seen one that said Alex Salmond has accepted David's Cameron "For God's sake man don't leave us"

  33. Deep Thought on February 17th, 2012 8:19 am

    She looks like a real wrench wench.

    I bet she says no and goes back to her lover Rosie D. Riveter.

  34. LinkorZelda on February 17th, 2012 8:43 am

    That feel when some of those TF2 players are your neighbors.

  35. LinkorZelda on February 17th, 2012 8:49 am

    Yeah I wouldn't buy it I would rather spend my money on something else like me, who cares about girls. *Runs off to the corner to sob*

    (Also Double rainbow?)

  36. LinkorZelda on February 17th, 2012 8:50 am

    Hey don't pick on Debra! Shes very nice…

  37. Nick Soapdish on February 17th, 2012 9:42 am

    They are very good (despite obviously tasting nothing like a burger)

  38. cy85 on February 17th, 2012 10:01 am

    "Whadya say? Pardners?"
    "…YEP."

  39. Chimental on February 17th, 2012 10:07 am

    Combine it with some scrap metal and that spare bat and BINGO! Jar of Jarate.

  40. PvtDisposable on February 17th, 2012 10:52 am

    The question is, "Will the ring fit on either of the Engie's gunslingers?"

    no not a condom you dirty minded person

  41. Newt on February 17th, 2012 10:58 am

    Those were the two best ones yet. I wonder if anyone's going to top that…

  42. PvtDisposable on February 17th, 2012 11:01 am

    That feel when you learn that it's not refundable…

  43. W/E on February 17th, 2012 11:07 am

    First comment here, just to post this. http://i.imgur.com/A80ng.png

  44. PvtDisposable on February 17th, 2012 11:08 am

    I guess that would put both their hearts and wallets "through the ringer"!

  45. Breezeplease on February 17th, 2012 11:31 am

    Ragna and Jin.
    The best bromance… yeah I'm scared of it too

  46. Hyze on February 17th, 2012 11:44 am

    I was skipping through the video to see if anything unexpected happened towards the end and I just randomly landed on this. I lol'd.

  47. Link Lab on February 17th, 2012 11:46 am

    *rejected

  48. Air on February 17th, 2012 11:47 am

    That feel when you learned you could have bought a real ring with that money.

  49. Air on February 17th, 2012 11:50 am

    What's with the large bird/dragon in the background?

  50. Solar Boy Django on February 17th, 2012 12:16 pm

    Does it make me sad and pathetic that I'm getting screenshots of all the rings I can when I'm online? Speaking of! We actually had someone that had the ring visit the halolz server! True story.

  51. Leo E. on February 17th, 2012 1:00 pm
  52. Drake148 on February 17th, 2012 1:05 pm

    I see what you did there… wait, I can't.

  53. Skrist on February 17th, 2012 2:05 pm

    This is now a meme isn't it? Because I am entirely fine with that.

  54. Skrist on February 17th, 2012 2:06 pm

    There there… you'll get that special little lady someday. Heck, if you try hard enough it might even happen outside of your dreams!

    DOUBLE RAINBOW DASH ALL THE WAY ACROSS REPLIES!!
    What does it mean?!

    This is all I can picture every time I think about the virtual valve rings now…
    And the sad part is, you'd get the same results marrying your hand as you would someone virtually…

  57. Dante on February 17th, 2012 2:43 pm

    If Gabe Newell were any more evil, he would explode into flames and demand TF2 player's souls at his next interview.

  58. Alpar on February 17th, 2012 3:05 pm

    That feel when you don't know that feel.

  59. Alpar on February 17th, 2012 3:06 pm

    He pulled
    up to a Mann Co. about seven or eight, and he yelled to the salesman yo holmes, smell ya later!

    Looked at his inventory, he was finally there

    to sit on his chair, as a TF2 player.

  60. Drjolt on February 17th, 2012 3:22 pm

    *Gives a bot a ring*
    Forever Alone.

  61. TheInsaneWombat on February 17th, 2012 4:21 pm

    Yesterday I saw The Big Bang Theory accept God's Unified Theory of Creationism. Only funny one I've seen so far.

  62. BTSnoogans on February 17th, 2012 4:48 pm

    Would you believe my imaginary girl left me?

    Erectin' a wedding here!

  66. BTSnoogans on February 17th, 2012 9:45 pm

    Now we just need someone to make one of these out of that. rel="nofollow"> rel="nofollow">

  67. RandomExplosion on February 17th, 2012 10:37 pm

    Am I the only one who notices that weird bird thing in the corner?

  68. RandomExplosion on February 17th, 2012 10:37 pm

    That feel when you realize Shawn still hasn't fixed the forums

  69. Seanhl on February 17th, 2012 10:54 pm

    I've seen somethingawful+4chan, is that considered funny?

  70. Seanhl on February 17th, 2012 10:55 pm

    Tvtropes..? OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

  71. wolfpax181 on February 18th, 2012 12:13 am

    But you know what happens when you find that special little lady?

    Sexins. Sounds good, right? Well, what happens when after some of those enjoyable sexins she tells you that she's erectin a dispenser? 9 months later all your sexins are going to be interrupted by your little scout screaming, "Medic!" all night long.

  72. LinkorZelda on February 18th, 2012 12:37 am

    Damn, I was hoping for a heavy.

  73. TransPM on February 18th, 2012 12:43 am

    <img src="http://oi42.tinypic.com/35k4jtd.jpg"&gt;
    We were actually starting to make progress!

  74. LinkorZelda on February 18th, 2012 12:47 am

    Then you will have 400 babies that run as fast as Kenyans!

  75. retroboy on February 18th, 2012 3:47 am

    I laughed at the Evangelion one.

  76. Aboithagameboi on February 19th, 2012 5:31 pm

    Don't be silly Alpar. He didn't have enough hats yet.

  77. Beserkmaster8 on February 25th, 2012 3:10 am

    I'm dissapointed at the lack of LOTR references.
    Come on people, name one "My Precious for My Precious"!
