On Valentine's Day, it is hard to know what is an appropriate level of gift. Do you go full blown romantic and spend half your wages on as much heart shaped shite as possible? Do you go homemade and knock out a personalised mixtape? Do you bin the entire day off and just dismiss it as greeting card company bollocks?
Whatever you do, never go full Fabio Borini.
In January 2013 the former Liverpool striker shared the presents he'd bought his sister for her birthday, via Twitter. Nothing too wrong with that you may think, and usually, we'd agree with you. There's nothing at all wrong with someone being excited to give their family gifts.

There is a big problem, however, when one of those gifts is a Victoria's Secrets lingerie set.

Who in their right mind buys their sister lingerie? And not only that, then goes onto brag about the purchase on social media, as if it's the most natural thing in the world?
The gift also inspired this rather magical chant...
And has become a regular talking point on Twitter, ever since...

OK, so it wasn't a Valentine's gift that the AC Milan striker bought his sister, but even so, on this most romantic of days, maybe stay clear of buying your siblings sexy underwear. Just a heads up.
