Anyone getting stabby tonight? (The V-Day thread)

I'm with her. Giving your son a Valentine's Day present is a good way to send him into a horrible lifestyle choice.

 

There is no fun in the crabby way.

 

It's not like we sit around and grouse about it being Valentine's Day and how much we hate it.

It's just another day.

 

Another crabby day.

 

Outer space?

 

The only thing worse than people who act superior because they don't celebrate Valentine's Day is people who act superior because they do.

 

I didn't know today was Valentine's Day until 10:30 p.m. last night.

 

What happened at 10:30 p.m. last night?

 

That was about the time I stumbled across some Valentine's Day-themed porn, finished masturbating, then looked at a calendar. It was very seasonal of me.

 

Now Richard Whitman, don't you get all crabby on me.

We are all equals here, discussing a manufactured holiday.

When I was in high school my girlfriend gave me boxers printed with hearts and Valentines all over. Fabulous gift.

 

"You were serious when you said you hated Valentine's Day, too, right? I mean, we're in total agreement on not bending to the whims of society just so you can get some fucking chocolate or something on a random winter's day, right?"

Of course, honey. I would NEVER say something just to get you to shut up about it." Never."

 

Your theory crumbles because she makes no bones about telling me how important anniversaries and birthdays are.

We need a feminist on this board to support the notion, apparently difficult for many to get their heads around, that not all women swoon to be given balloons and candy at the appointed date by their dutiful husbands.
