Valentine's Day isn't for everyone, especially if you've recently broken up with -- or been dumped by -- your ex. But Hooters is here to help, sort of, with their annual "Shred Your Ex" promotion.

Go to their Shred Your Ex website where you enter details about your relationship, where you enter a few details about your relationship -- how long were you together, how did the breakup go down, how long has it been since the breakup. Then they recommend what you should do with your ex's photo ("shred it!" "burn it!" etc.).

Of course, destroying a photo only helps a bit: you still gotta eat. Luckily, the franchise is offering ten free boneless wings when you buy ten. So bring your friends and celebrate your new-found single-dom!
