Longestpants 1 Posted February 15, 2008 I've never had much tolerance for V-Day. A bastardization of St. Valentine's Day manipulated by gift industries to make you feel like you must buy outrageously priced products from them to give to your significant other, it totally eliminates the idea that love is enough. Valentine's Day is the big, burning pile of faeces that you can put unwanted money in. That being said, my position on the holiday has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that I am all alone. *sting* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Longestpants 1 Posted February 15, 2008 If I was a communist I would say Valentines Day is a holiday exploited by the upper class onto the proletarian. Now you're thinking like a cheap wease- er, a freedom-loving socialist, Comrade Viggen! But really, that makes more sense than communism ever has. At first, one would say that the proletarian has not need to buy such things, thus foiling the Second Estate. But, the other proletarian feels that the lack of Valentine's-related goodies is a result of a lack of love on the first one's part. All attempts to explain that this is actually not true will fail. Thus, the Third Estate is more or less forced to spend much-needed money that could be spent on overthrowing the oppressive dicta- er, Communist Leadership, is spent on candy hearts. So you actually raise a pretty good point. Welcome to the world of sparking pointless soliloquies, Comrade Viggen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TX3RN0BILL 3 Posted February 15, 2008 (edited) I've always hated it even when I wasn't alone (which was only the last two years but not this year again) because even when you have company it's not just the fact that everything is over-priced, all the restaurants are booked too! Got turned down this year for a date as well and my backup computer failed to boot as well - all in all a perfect Valentine's Day... NOT!!! :angry2: :angry2: :angry2: Edit: Here goes my vote for the Eels to eradicate said date from the memory of all of Mankind forever!!!

JediMaster 451 Posted February 15, 2008 Heh, well at least I needn't worry about the date part anymore! Cypress Hill's video for Insane is forever immortalized by its appearance on Beavis and Butthead, the quintessential commentary of 90's teen life! BTW, if you're ever down in Miami you can visit Al's final home where he lived till he died. It's just SO exciting to see a ~100 yr old house with absolutely NOTHING special about it other than Al lived there in a wheelchair. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+Brainless 1 Posted February 16, 2008 One of the better things I'e done, cause we all know how us males tend to forget things, is have Valentines Days your anniversery. so much eaiser to remember.... Pat got her usual, with the plus of an extra rose I left out last night before bedtime (wasn't sure 'the usual' had gotten ordered. The "usual" being a large ballon bouquet delivered to her office with a card and some kind of stufed animial (mostly cats); same as I do for her birthday. Wrench kevin stein ps: Happy V-Day to all!! Huh..typical. I might have know..jammy b******d Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
