I love you OVAL! If I wasn’t so afraid of being skated into a million pieces, I would lay down and kiss your icy lips. Fuck all the haters, this year, you’ll be my valentine. I’ll bring the cocoa, you bring that sweet icy goodness. I’ll backflip-triple axel-open stroke the shit out of you… right after I learn to stay up. —Elvis Stojko
