Are Break-Up Teddy Bears Cruel?

Valentine's Day is right around the corner and all the candy, chocolates, flowers and teddy bears are front and center at all stores. Walmart has decided to sell a "Breakup Bear" and I'm not sure if I understand this. In my opinion, this is actually very cruel to give to anyone. First, why would you break up with anyone on Valentine's Day? Second, why give them this bear? Is the bear suppose to be a memorabilia about being dumped? Makes no sense.

Lulu on the other hand feels it's funny and can be used as an ice breaker if you are breaking up with someone.

John from Belmont, NJ, called in and suggested the bear is for a friend to give to another friend going through a break-up. Different perspective but I still feel the whole idea of a "break-up bear is absolutely cruel.

We want to know what do you think? Would you buy this bear?
