In regards to valentines and the like.

No, no, I did not forget anyone who put up a meme or...you know something like that about valentines. I simply did not answer.

Valentines Day is a ridiculous holiday. What happened? I mean, think about it---St. Valentine? Man was marrying couples against his Roman Emporer's decree that soldiers should be unmarried. Noble idea, yes, but all it ended with was him getting his head lobbed off.

(Ow.)

That, and there should be no reason for me not to tell the ones that I l---that I care deeply for that I do on any day of the year. Ridiculous human holiday.



OOC: Naturally, it had nothing to do with the fact that my browser is unable to deal with those meme things. Oh, c'mon. You know if he could he'd have one up himself to have people tell him how much they love him. Bastard.

Commercialism, singling out of---uh, single people, and more commercialism. And that movie with Hugh Grant and what's her name from E.T., that came out today too. Romantic comedies! What's so funny about romance?!

So, no! I feel no fun in this day!

Single people aren't singled out if they have friends! I'm single, and I'm happy. I have people who I love in my life and that's enough.

Its not just about romance. It is definitely not about Music & Lyrics (ugh), and its only commercial if you make it that way.

All the hearts, the fat naked babies with projectile weaponry and the local cinemas would have you think differently.

You hate Christmas too, dontcha?

Well if you don't like it, I say stay in. And if its so easy for you to tell your friends that you "care deeply" on any given day, why don't you give it a shot?

But don't go raining on everyone else's parade, Doctor. It just makes you look bitter.

I just so happen to like Christmas. It's surprising fun for...you know, a human holiday.

*headscratch*

And I'm not bitter. Why would you think I'm bitter?!

From: [identity profile] daughterof-evil.livejournal.com


It is fun. Then again, I think Valentines Day is fun too.

You're knocking the idea that a priest believed so strongly in love that he was willing to die fighting for it. Seriously. Someone did a number on you.

*flail*

I'm not in denial!

I think, after 900 years, I would know if I was---if I had a 'number' done on me!

After 900 years, you've learned to call a holiday that celebrates love "ridiculous"!

I haven't been around anywhere near as long as you have, but its not hard to tell that you've loved someone.

You're so not fooling me.

From: [identity profile] rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com


Everyone has loved someone once.

Otherwise they've lived a rather sad life, don't you think?

What about you, hmm? Knower of all things romance?

What about me?

I love my friends, and I have yet to experience the great romance that makes you anti-V day and sends you into straight into denial when someone calls you on how bitter you are over the whole thing.

But clearly, that's something you've experienced. Why exactly is that so hard for you to admit?

From: [identity profile] rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com


Not bitter. Valentine's day is ridiculous, and that is true.

As for the great romance...I've come to believe that great romances are...few and far between. And probably best that way, too.

I maintain that Valentines Day is no more ridiculous than any other holiday. Honestly, it makes more sense to me to celebrate how far you've come in a relationship than it does to party over a god, a miracle, or a resurrection that you played no part in. Valentines Day is more hands on. In the good way. *smirk*

They wouldn't be great if they weren't, right?

*eyebrow raise*

Were this an internet chat room, I would use a snarky icon and the words "O RLY?" as a way to have you define yourself a bit more.

From: [identity profile] daughterof-evil.livejournal.com


Then I'm pretty sure the correct response to that would be "YA RLY." with a happy little smiley icon.
