Everything I hate about Valentine's day in one commercial

I first (mis)understood you to mean that the girls chew up and vomit the chocolate, then wrap it up in lace and ribbons.

I was gonna say, “Pix or it didn’t happen,” but the damage is done.

I’m sure that’s what they do in Japan.

(Okay, upon reflection, no one is going to get the reference, so here’s the explanation - when I was in high school, there was this video clip that did the Korean Internet rounds, the way 2girls1cup has, of a young Japanese girl [TMI warning]vomiting into a silver basin and then drinking it back up.)

Trisk, no good deed goes unpunished. Cliche, but too true, unfortunately.

Yeah, Trisk, and if you were a real playah, you’d have personally delivered a rose to each woman in the building seperately, inferring that each was the only one getting one from you. You’d have a steady supply of hollabacks after that.

A White Castle near where I work has a marquee sign out front that says “Now Accepting Valentine’s Day Reservations” and a phone number. I admit, the idea did pique my interest enough that I almost called…

I know that last year, White Castle had this hilarious Valentine’s Day thing. You would make reservations for two and you’d get a cloth tableclothed… table with candlelight and a tuxedoed waiter. The food was still White Castle, which made it even more awesome!

I was born exactly 9 months after Valentine’s Day. Just saying.

And can someone find pbbth a boyfriend before she explodes all over the thread?

[pbbth]

I may have found a valentine all on my own! We shall see what happens, but he is very nice and thinks I am super hot. He has mentioned the possiblity of bringing me a gift on valentines day and I told him that even though it isn’t necessary, should he decide to bring a gift it should be chocolate. I suppose we shall see how well he listens.

Generally speaking I dislike the concept of the holiday as well. However, any day set aside as a time when my boyfriend is encouraged to bring me chocolate is a something I can’t get upset about.

If I had my way, Valentines Day would go like this:

Hypothetical boyfriend: “Hi, pbbth, I love you. Here is some chocolate.”

Me: “Thanks, honey. Now take off your clothes and have sex with me. Then we will order pizza. Then more sex. Then we will watch The Simpsons until we fall asleep.”

Hypothetical boyfriend: “Okay!”

I just realized I married the wrong woman.

My husband and I have decided that we’re not participating in this holiday.

But I have to chime in about the latest Russel Stover commercial where they show like three different guys saying something like “I have to bring her chocolate” and then the show the Russel Stover heart shaped box with the stupid painted on bow. Right…the crappy stale chocolate you can get at any grocery store or drug store for $2.99

If you’re going to bring me chocolate, honey, better make it something good.
