Man Proposes to Girlfriend in Binary Code

Okay, for all the schlubs who might have been thinking of proposing to their girlfriend on the jumbotron or some big screen or wherever — or even just get down on your knee in a McDonald’s somewhere — you might want to step it up a notch.

Some guy took the time to figure out how to say “I Love You” and propose marriage, all in binary code. For n00bz, that’s all zeros and ones, and it’s a sh*tload of them.

To give you an idea of how long it takes a computer to turn English into binary code, the entire message is 3 minutes and 12 seconds — which is really long when it’s composed entirely in binary code.

The fact that the guy’s dressed in a surprisingly realistic Bender mask from Futurama proves that I’d better be a bit more creative when I get ready to ask the big question.

As girls like to tell us, it’s not the size that matters, it’s what you do with it…That and a friend of a friend actually used the jumbotron once at National Stadium in D.C. to propose, and it flashed the message when she went to the bathroom.

Kudos for whoever it is manning the camera doing their best not to crack up. Hey, your Bender impression sucks. Just kidding — we just wish we’d come up with the idea.
