Did you know that the Victorians were mean af? Cause they were. No one could serve an insult like a Victorian housewife (this is my hill, and I will die on it.) And while we live in an era of sugary-sweet valentine's day cards and candy, during the 19th and early 20th century there was a trend for mean Valentine's Day cards, commonly referred to as Vinegar Valentines today, that served different degrees of burns, from the "ha-ha" to the face scorching (and some so awful we refused to share them, ngl). Today, Chrissy, ‪@NicoleRudolph‬, and I will rank some Victorian Valentine's Day cards on how funny and mean they are. Things get...weird. I hope you're ready...

oh, and btw, please don't ask me what a bratty bottom is...
