Before we saw this, we were pretty sick of all the gays with a camera phone and a bunch of friends with too much time on their hands taking a stab at viral fame through a haphazardly executed flashmob proposal (nobody can out-flashmob the Home Depot guys).

Maybe it’s the Christmas spirit making us all mushy, but when Canadian Patrick proposed to his boyfriend we had a change of heart. One thing will be said though: Patrick, leave the singing to Elton.
