For some, creativity runs deep in the serious game of love, ensuring the next outlandish or epic marriage proposal to break the internet is always just around the corner.
This was precisely the case in recent times, courtesy of a US couple, who, after a quiz game in which the suitor posed questions to his girlfriend – with each subsequent correct answer popping "the question" when put together – captured the hearts and minds of social media users far and wide.

In a video shared by @ProfessorRugby and circulated widely on Twitter, the loved-up pair, in the presence of people gathered in the home, play a fun and engaging general knowledge game before the man about his business goes down on bended knee.
He picks up the cards that had been dropped on the carpet after each corresponding answer to the quiz questions he'd asked were called correctly and reveals the words "will you marry me?", much to the stunned amazement of his girlfriend, who shakes uncontrollably as she seemingly tries to make sense of the situation.

Man pulls show stopper as he proposes
Elsewhere, Briefly News previously reported that social media user @kulanicool took to Twitter to share a video of the sweetest and probably most original proposal that Mzansi has seen in a while.
A young man proposed to his girlfriend at the police station and Saffas could not stop talking about it. The caption read:
"Proposal at a police station, congratulations to lovebirds."
The video shows two women standing at the entrance of the police station. Shortly afterwards, an officer leads a man, holding flowers, into the room. The man presents the flowers to the woman and she gladly accepts them.
The man proceeded to go down on one knee and proposed to the lady, who could not hold back her tears, much to the delight of the surrounding crowd.
