I have a confession to make. Over the Valentine’s weekend, the lovely Pure & Weary sent me their latest YouTube video. I completely missed that email. I am a terrible person with a neglected inbox.

This is my very public apology to these funny ladies, and your chance to see that video clip. I’m sorry it’s late.

But it’s still a relevant clip, I swear. Because I love a good pun and a portmanteau at any time of the year.

Let’s mess with some names!

Is this your favourite Pure & Weary skit yet? Who’s the president you love the most? Tweet us and tell us all about your inappropriate crushes and terrible wordplay.
