Valentines Day - leucifer - 01-28-2010
Well Valentines is right around the corner, and I could use some help. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can get out of having to do anything, but still get sex?
Valentines Day - JCW - 01-28-2010
Take your $20 and buy a hooker? Otherwise I think you're gonna have to at LEAST do dinner or chocolates or jewelry or something.

Or find a chick that doesn't celebrate the over-rated holiday that is Valentine's Day
Valentines Day - leeman - 01-28-2010

Valentines Day - bam - 01-28-2010
Exactly! My boyfriend lucked out- I don't celebrate Valentine's Day, Sweetest Day or anniversaries- I couldn't even tell you what day our anniversary is lol

Never heard of Sweetest Day. Are you Canadian or something...?
Valentines Day - BIRD33 - 01-28-2010
What day is that?
Valentines Day - bam - 01-28-2010
Fuck no, I'm not Canadian. I just did a Wiki search on it. Apparently it's a regional thing...
Sweetest Day is an observance celebrated primarily in the Great Lakes region, and parts of the Northeast United States on the third Saturday in October.[1] Once known as a day to spread love and cheer to the unfortunate, this popular holiday in the northern U.S. is now known as a day to show affection to the loved ones in your life. It is described by Retail Confectioners International as an "occasion which offers all of us an opportunity to remember not only the sick, aged and orphaned, but also friends, relatives and associates whose helpfulness and kindness we have enjoyed."[2] Sweetest Day has also been referred to as a "concocted promotion"[3] created by the candy industry solely to increase sales of candy.
Sweetest Day now largely involves giving small presents such as greeting cards, candy, and flowers to loved ones. Making breakfast for loved ones is an accepted way to start the day in the south, especially in Texas. While it is not as large or widely observed as Valentine's Day, it is still celebrated in parts of the United States, despite persistent allegations of being a "Hallmark holiday." [9]
Retail Confectioners International describes it as "much more important for candymakers in some regions than in others (Detroit, Cleveland and Buffalo being the biggest Sweetest Day cities)".[2] In 2006, Hallmark marketed 151 greeting card designs for Sweetest Day. American Greetings marketed 178.[10

I can assure you I'm not Canadian.

I'll believe you for now. But if you start to throw the letter U into random words where it has no place, like color and favor, then all bets are off.
Valentines Day - bam - 01-28-2010
Trust me, I'm originally from NC. There won't be any unnecessary letters in my words.
Valentines Day - leucifer - 01-28-2010
Nope. I guess you'd be more likely to leave letters out. Do they say "y'all" in NC?
Valentines Day - bam - 01-28-2010
They do. I do not. Then again, I am now in Ohio.

Ohio? Are you Amish?
Valentines Day - BIRD33 - 01-28-2010
She's Canadian.Keep up.
Valentines Day - bam - 01-28-2010
No, not Amish either. I'm pretty sure if I were Amish, I wouldn't be online right now.
