I don't know why this makes me think of Saran Wrap and Valetine's day. ;))

saran wrap? Valentine's Day? perhaps you're confusing this with premature ejockulation - I think there's an injockulation for that

Nope, my mistake... I was thinking of jocklamination.

And not my long-suffering bane, jocklamentation.
