Romance is highly overrated. My suggestion: on the 14th, do something nice for yourself instead of sitting around crying in your beer. You’ll feel better the next day.

And I’ll go one better. Want a drink? Great. Everyone here is on my tab. Relax. Go nuts. Tell the bartender Jay’s paying.
Well, I don’t know about you guys, but I’m spending V-day with a bunch of good friends. You guys are just a bunch of sore losers.
I’m hanging out with Sammy, Bud, Miller, Jack (and his old Granddad), “Yukon” Jack, John the guy in the kilt, and Jim with his pet wild turkey.

One bourbon, one scotch, and one beer.
Say yeah! My SO & I have decided it’s a silly manipulative holiday, so we ignore it.

More importantly, your beer will taste better!
My next payday falls on the friday after valentines. i think i shall blow my check on toys for me or something.
Or i could just get drunk…

Sign me up on the Anti-Valentines-Day petition.
14 Feb? It’ll be Wednesday. I’ll be at work. :yawn: Unless I get lucky*.
*Win the lottery or get a new job, of course. What did you think?
YAY…other people in this world agree!
it’s getting like everything now. Christmas and easter are just WAY too commercialised! as for V-Day. Why wait a whole year to but someone mushy flowers or chocolates,or profess your love for someone, when you can do it any old day, and save yourself a bucket of money. Any other time of the year, roses cost me about $10 a dozen. Come V-day…the price jumps up to about $45/dozen.
** I smell a conspiracy**
Even if I was involved with somebody right now, I’d tell her, “The way to my heart is through my liver. You’ll make me a lot happier with something from the liquor store than with anything bearing a Hallmark logo.”
After all, it’s the thought that counts, right?
Anyway, I’m thinking a row of southern hurricanes would be just dandy. The bottom line is, I’m not just a bitter anti-romantic, but I’m also an alcoholic at heart.

Who doesn’t have love to share?

I have plenty of love to share. Unfortunately, no one wants to share it with me!
And JBird…what’s a southern hurricane?
It is, without question, my favorite mixed drink. Part Southern Comfort, part Grenadine, part 7up. When my latest gal friday shows me the doormat, this is what I order when I pony up to the bar (usually the Stone Cellar in Ellicott City, where my band Static Automatic has become a weekly fixture lately).

As part of my own celebration Anti-Valentine’s Day, I’m going along with my parents this coming weekend to visit relatives, including my two cousins (and good friends) Shelli and Sheri. Shelli’s husband left her last year. Sheri’s husband left her last year. My wife left me last year.
February 14 is going to be real fun in our family this year.
Adults can simply ignore it. I do. No need to piss and fulminate, just disengage. For my wife & me it’s as though it doesn’t exist. No harm, no foul. We’re happier that way.
BUT . . . FairyChatMom hit the nail on the head. Kids in school don’t have the luxury of ignoring it. They’re dragooned into it willy-nilly. Who cares if they’re non-Christian? Cough up the cards, you brats, or suffer eternal social damnation!
Why do they have to put kids through this? We’re not Christian, all right? Don’t make my kids celebrate a feastday off of the Church calendar. In a public school! What’s next, St. Lucy’s day? Everybody bring eyeballs on a plate?
Just A Girl… will you marry me this coming Valentines Day!!! Would you do me… ahh… the honor??
Ok, perhaps I should’ve specified.
The gift of “romantic love.” i.e. those who do not have an S.O.
Because frankly, I don’t think Valentine’s Day was created to share with your dad or something.
I never imagined my marriage proposal to contain a masked sexual proposition. Woo hoo! 
However that would completely go against my anti-valentine’s Day sentiments.
Come back February 15th and we’ll talk. 
Ok, so since 1. I feel the strange compulsion to post to every single forum I read, and 2.Valentine’s Day has been brought to my direct attention (instead of merely passing me by per usuall). I am going to endavor to create Un’V-Day cards. Like:
Roses are red
Violets are blue
But, I didn’t get none
so leave me alone.
PS- If you want it to rhyme write your own damn card.
Or,
On this VERY SPECIAL DAY
I think to Myself of all the people
who are so SPECIAL to me.
Thank you www.nastysluts.com
for all the SPECIAL times we’ve had.
Or,
To my LOVE,
I thought perhaps that
we’d spend this day having a picnic,
or eating a romantic dinner.
But instead, I’ll be serving out my
multiple life sentences. Ah well,
maybe next year.
LOVE,
Your Stalker
Was that last one a little over the top?
