A female mannequin in a teal sleeveless top is holding a poorly photoshopped red phone with a long curly red cord. There are pink hearts in the background, like wallpaper. The image looks like it is from the 1990s.

From the award winning Game Boys Comedy team...
I just wanna say, Sharon, I’m really sorry. I know we’re going through a rough patch but I really miss you, babe. If you’re listening, I really love you and I know I can change. Please give me another chance - come meet me at Dancefloor Dedications. It’ll be even better than that time I treated you to Sushi Hub AND bowling. There’s gonna be love song requests, a bunch of audience game shows with prizes, and I’ll even show you my best moves on the d-floor.

Babe, I’m not interested in playing games anymore, unless they’re live on stage with the award winning Game Boys Comedy crew.

So for you Sharon, I’d like to request Sisqo Thong Song.

“She had dumps like a truck, truck, truck...”

About the party

Visit Catfish Corner, play Titanic Twister, text cheeky SMS love dedications to the big screen or call in to chat live with the love doctor.
