Fuck Valentine's Day.
I asked someone out for Valentine's Day and I was given a "Yes" and I bought some nice stuff for my potential date. Nothing too out of the ordinary: a teddy bear (she said she collects bears and was talking about how, even though it made her feel "childish", she wanted to buy herself a bear...so I bought one...), a chocolate rose, and a card. WELL, I got stood up without even a comment or anything. SO now I am stuck with a fucking bear, a chocolate rose and a useless card. Could have bought a GOG or two with that money, instead.
So, fuck Valentine's Day.

One of those rare scientifically provable illusions. ... wait, what?
Meh, I hate valentine's day, wanted to celebrate it because of my girl who, for some reason, finds it nice. And she got sick today, so ... there, all my plans went right out of the window. Oh well, at least she'll be ok.

Sucks! You're old-school, so just go ahead, smash her over the head with a wooden club and drag her into your cave

Bah! Just another day with a number attached to it - if I think about why people think the number is important I will just realize how screwed up my life is right now.
So, again, Bah!

@FenixP: Sap it before you tap it?? Nah, I like 'em lively :D

I love Valentine's Day.

Incidentally, heres some indie developers selling their games in a $20 Valentines themed bundle.

Rather interesting to look into the origins of some of these modern holidays. Seems Valentine's Day is something of a bastard child of the honoring of Saint Valentine (who was a martyr in Rome, killed by being beaten, then stoned, then finally decapitated), and the pagan celebration of Lupercalia, a description of which is as follows:
"Lupercalia, of which many write that it was anciently celebrated by shepherds, and has also some connection with the Arcadian Lycaea. At this time many of the noble youths and of the magistrates run up and down through the city naked, for sport and laughter striking those they meet with shaggy thongs. And many women of rank also purposely get in their way, and like children at school present their hands to be struck, believing that the pregnant will thus be helped in delivery, and the barren to pregnancy."
Both sources of the holiday can be quite fun to bring up during discussions of Valentine's Day. ;)

Enjoy it, dude! Take that money you would have spent on her and spend it on YOU. I've got a massive ribeye steak marinating in the fridge for grilling later on, and I just bought myself Fallout 3 Game of the Year Edition (and I'm contemplating Empire Total War). :)

My valentine is a dog. :)
I was talking to one of my friends from Canada and I jokingly asked if she'd be my valentine, and she said no. :( So I asked if her dog would be my valentine :3
And she asked if my car would be her valentine.
We have a love rectangle or something.

you're all my valentines <3<3<3

Meh, fuck Valentine's Day.
Love and loyalty mean shit to most women without capital backing.

Just as intelligence and chracter means shit to most men when she ain't looking like a model.

I couldn't care less about Valentine's before getting married but turns out my wife thinks it a big deal. The first couple of years I was like "huh? You wanted flowers or something? Whatever for? They'll just die."
Nowadays, the thing is different. I actually like how she gets when I've been thoughtful and she just loves when I write stuff to her. Turns out Valentine's can be fun creatively and it gives me a chance to say or do things I normally don't bother with the rest of the year.
I usually do some arrangements on the dining room table with a gift and a card. I'll bring the present when I come home from work and hide it before she comes from work an hour later. Once she's asleep, I can play Santa Valentine and set up whatever I've cooked up.
Flowers were out of the question this year. She doesn't work on saturdays and I do so I had to bring the stuff and hide it much earlier and flowers just wouldn't make it. Chocolates were also out, since she's starting a diet and it would have been cruel. I bought her three CDs, (2 music CD's from season 1 of Glee, which she likes and a compilation of Luis Fonsi's songs). I wrapped it all up with red giftwrap and cut the remaining paper into heart shapes and wrote things I love about her in the hearts, spreading them all over the table and around her new CD's (she knows how I hate doing manual crafts like that so it was extra points for me). The card was also there since I caught the inspiration bug saturday morning.
I also cut some of the hearts, wrote some romantic/funny stuff in them and hid them on things she'll eventually use. So far, she's found three of them (one was taped to the remote, another inside the medicine cabinet, the third on the cloth hanging pincers bag). She still hasn't found the one hidden in one of her purses that's redeemable for $25 on Amazon the day she finds it. I'm pretty sure the last one she'll find will be in december though. I hid it with the christmas ornaments.
Valentine's can be fun if you make it fun. It can be rewarding too if you play your cards right. :-)

Yeah.. Hooray for superficiality?
