Here's a one which is seen everywhere, and I wouldn't be surprised if
you've seen it before.
  ___           |
(~._.~)         |  However, I've found that you really want to impress your
 ( Y )   ./_____|  girlfriend, try your own hand at making ascii teddy bears.
()~*~()   `        You can personalize and best of all, say "I made this
(_)-(_)            bear just for you."  I guarantee you'll get better results
		   and that she'll be even more impressed with you.  While 
sending random bears may be a nice gesture, I think that she'll appreciate
your effort that you put into it, even if your bear doesn't quite look like a
bear.  At best, it's an incentive to wake up latent art skills that you never
knew you had.  Your girlfriend will definitely remember your own ascii bear
which was made especially for her much longer than the other bears that she
gets.  This is verified by my own research in the matter.

Besides, then you can post new your new bears instead of always seeing the
same one.  That way there'll be new things for all to see instead of the
things we've seen before (which isn't bad but new things are always nice :)

Later,
Daniel

Here's one I grabbed a while back.  (I've trimmed the headers a bit.)
boba, ( = Henry Ho?) uses the word "another" so he may have more, but I
don't.  Enjoy.
