Ugh, dramaqueenspeople. How I hate them (except you, Tuti, feel free to babble about 'nearly being run over' as often as you like ♥).

Valentine's Day Isn't Cuddly for Everyone

I read articles like that and I just want to tell some of these people: GET A GRIP. Who the hell CARES it's Valentine's Day? YAY CANDY! <--that's my reaction. You're single. Oh woes. Here, let me play you a song on this world's tiniest violin.

I'm single and not looking. And much as I babble insanely about the hawt Japaneseish menfolks in my life I don't plan on getting in any kind of relationship for at least another good few years. I have an education to finish, places to go and not be tied down, a job to start. Why the heck would I want a man (or woman if I swung that way) to have to report to?

Maybe that's just me, though. I'm not interested in my own lovelife in the least. So why the hell should Valentine's Day bother me? Bah...

"It is a painful holiday," says Tuccillo, whose humorous 2004 best seller counseled women in dead-end relationships. "I'm looking up the phone number of a store, and I have to be reminded that I'm single!"

*headdesk*

Because nothing, nothing, is more important than GETTING YOU LAID.

"Basically, no matter who you are, Valentine's Day will give you something to be stressed about," says 25-year-old receptionist Bennett Madison. It's kind of like the stress at Christmas, he explains, but worse: "It's got that added layer of romance. Just one more thing to make you feel inadequate."

...Well, here's me. Not being stressed about V-day. Oh wait, I'm making this entry, so I guess that's stress...

Really, intarweb, get a grip. It's a capitalist holiday dreamed up to make you spend money on candy to get you fat thus further capitalizing on the type-2 diabetes you will later develop, lining the pockets of sleazy doctors all around this great nation.

Eat your damn chocolate and shut up ♥

I agree!

I'm single and happy. Men, as pretty as they are, need too much time and effort that I can't afford to spend on them. That and I'm anti-social. But I don't feel sad on Valentine's Day. Yeah, my friend got flowers. As long as she shares the chocolates I'm fine.

I figure someone will pop up eventually. If my Dad could get married, I'll find someone too, since I'm the spittin' image of him. Until then, I'm not gonna whine on Valentine's, unless I don't get candy. Then I'll go to the store and buy some myself.

Thanks a lot, I forgot it was Valentines. Now I feel like I should give a damn.

...Nope. Still don't give a damn. Hurray!
There's nobody around here worthy of getting chocolates anyways. So giving people chocolate would be pointless here anyways. A waste of my time. So I think I'll just have an Atobe Valentines (I <3 MEEEEE!) and spoil myself with Tenimyu and pnish. ^_^

Wait, wait. Valentine's Day is about hooking up with someone and getting chocolate and flowers? I thought it was the one official day out of the year we have an excuse to write slashy fics for, so what the hell am I writing this MorixDaiki sick fic for?

I'm going to go angst over my single life and give up thinking about two men feeling happy being together, waaaah.

Oh shit. Valentine's Day. XD;;;;; *just remembered*

And I totally agree with you (and this is most likely also why that day gets about zero attention from me) - it's a dumb holiday that people invented to make other people stress about expectations and compare themselves to other people. ^_~ I really am not a huge fan of Valentine's Day, never have been. I just want candy. ♥ And jesus christ... *smacks Bennett Madison* What an idiot. :P

Well, unless you were lucky enough to have been blessed with diabetes before the fatness sets in. Genetics and commercialism coming together to bury me. It doesn't matter, though, I have enough chocolate in this house to get me through two or three cold wars.

Jason: You bought yourself imported chocolate? Now what can I get you?

Me: I bookmarked the jpqueen site on your favorites list. Don't eat my chocolate either, you rat bastard.

I didn't have the heart to tell him that I didn't buy that chocolate. XD

Valentines day for me has always been a day to watch really violent movies and light dead trees on fire at my Dad's boss's house (company party to get rid of all of our old christmas trees). I do my best to pretend that that's how you're "supposed" to celebrate, so I dont go on a rampage of "GRR WTF COMMERCIALISM" every February.
