<div class="IPBDescription">For or Against</div> Okay... Now nobody's saying i dislike being nice and such to women who i find attractive, BUT... why just on one day where card companies can make a killing between Christmas and Easter. I personally dislike it. How about you? And do not give me "I love it because I get lots of cards... I'm a ****" or "I hate it... nobody loves me"

    I dislike how everything turns pink a month in advance.

    V-Day,yawn. <!--emo&:angry:--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/mad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='mad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
    Is that the day where everyone spends money on their loved one? In the words of some other person, "Do you need a date to tell our loved one we love them?"
    Romantic me,I bought 3 DVD's and a copy of WOW today. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
    Now put that in your over-prized V-Day card and smoke it.

    Unfortunately Valentine's Day has become so damn commercialized, like Easter and Christmas. Myself, I don't participate.

    I participate. It may be overcommercialized, but the sentiment is never one that is not worth expressing. At least for me, it is a time to reflect on the things which keep me and my wife together and happy.
    Certainly it is something that we do on other days too, but then again, we get older every day, and celebrate a birthday once a year. We have been married longer every day, and celebrate our anniversary only once a year. We have been in love a little longer, and learned a little more about each other every day, but we put one day a year aside where we ALWAYS make sure to remember it, and celebrate it.

    I enjoy the opportunity to express the fact that money is of little concern to me in the grand scheme of things. I mean, come on, if I wanted to be rich so bad, I wouldn't be studying music education, now would I have bought my girlfriend $40 worth of chocolate.

    In theory, I like it, but I stuck it to the man.

    Suprised my other 2 weeks ago with a really nice day out instead of today so we didnt have to sit with 5000 other people wherever we went. You don't need it to be a certain day to give her a little treat <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    If i was with someone today then I'd love it, otherwise its just giving me the opportunity to make my move.

    Best way to feel better on Valentine's day: take a monstrous load of candy to school and share it with your big table of friends. Then wonder why you ever cared that you don't have a gf. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> So in that regard, Valentine's Day was great for me. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Bleh today was hell for me. Spent all day writing scripts for lazy bastages and essays for evil transfer admissions people. Now I have to fit shoes on overweight women in about two hours. I'm just glad my college classes are morning classes, so I don't have to endure the uni's 99% female population walk around campus with giant stuffed teddy bears and pink heart balloons.

    Just once... <i>just once</i> I'd like to see a balloon shaped like a <b>real</b> human heart for valentines day. Hell I'd buy it just for the novelty of it all.

    I almost did that today, but I was too lazy to take it when I saw it on the table when I was leaving

    Mostly because it was some funky off-brand sweet tarts <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
