Valentine's Day Rocks

#1. People are going to be horribly disappointed all day (nothing like the misery of others to make you feel better about youself).
#1a. The satisisfcation I am getting from all you chics posting you hate VD day, come on we all have fond memories of being in elementary school and getting a note from a secret admirer. We have all had at least one good Valentine's day. I am letting Boulder Holder off on this one, she has a legitimate reason to be upset today.
#2. There is candy all over the place, so all those losers who made resolutions about losing weight, eating less sweets and the such are breaking it for a hallmark holiday.
#3. Most people are only anti-VD day because they are alone. And those that do have someone to go home to say they hate it because of the commercialism. True the commercialism is bad, but unexpected VD gift can really brighten things. It is one of the few holidays men will not miss. Annivarsaries, birthdays, mothers day, we miss all those for a reason. We turn on the radio right now we will hear, go buy a diamond, of course we won't, we will end up at the grocery store canabalizing what flowers are left. But in the end we do it for one reason and one reason only, we want you to feel appreciated, it would be great if we did it on some other basis, but hey we are men.
#4. Back to #2, all that VD candy will be on sale tomorrow and people are just going to get fatter.
#5. Back in my single days, I could hit up a bar everyday for the next week and take home some chic who was disappointed over her Valentine's.
#6. I have someone to go home to tonight.. SO SUCK IT!

Seriously people, it is only a day. Don't get depressed, don't say you hate it. Some people get a little joy from today, and the world needs a little more happiness.

OK, I didn't mind VD in grade school. Perhaps I'm still in my bad mood from yesterday, but even when I was alone on VD, I wasn't crying into my beer about it.
I must say, my hubby gave me a great card and a cute stuffed puppy one day last week for no reason whatsoever. (at least he claims he didn't do anything) To me, a surprise like that is much more meaningful than getting something today because he feels obligated.

I stand by my hatred of the day.

Actually Video, what you said is the reason I created this post. Everywhere I looked today, was all this anti-vd day sentiment. If it makes some people happy let them be happy. If you don't celebrate it, just leave it alone. I don't post anti-Quanza sentiment (not picking on Quanza but only thing I could think of) It seems like people are becomming so anti-VD, they are actually getting worse than those lovey/dovey people who celebrate it.

Thanks for letting me off easy! Happy Singles Awareness Day to you too.

In college, we used to get our group of single friends together and go out for dinner. We'd always make the reservation under the name "Bitter." Even though we would be standing right there, the host would always get on the microphone (hey, we were in college and on a budget!) because he thought it was hilarious and say, "Bitter, party of 5? Bitter, party of 5 your table is ready."

We thought we were funny.

Hmmm...crazy blowout party at Pitt where the folks were so drunk that they didn't know there was a dead guy on the couch, and now DNA Meister getting all kinds of surprise gifts. Let me know when the other shoe drops.

I don't mind the commercialism. nothing says "I want to get into your pants" like a diamond the size of my car.

plus me and a girlfriend went on a date. on my front porch. Now everyone in my street thinks I'm a lesbian so I have a plethora of guys offering to mow my lawn and take out my garbage.

happy Valentines Day indeed
