Ok for the record I am not against love, romance, gifts, mushy, cuddley, gooey kissy stuff that comes with romance. I even sit through chick flicks, and know who Matthew McConaughey and George Clooney are. What sucks about Valentines day is why would you just get soemthing for your beloved one freaking day a year? What moron would stay married with that idea?
It seems more normal to buy her something because she occupies your mind, haunts your senses, and you see her each time you close your eyes. Your world begins and ends through her, and her essence brings you life. Not "Oh shit, if I don't get her something, she will never go down on me again!"
Know what else sucks about Valentines day? They double the price of freaking roses. Those shysters can shove that idea in a place you do show the world! Normally $13.99 will get a dozen good roses, but this week, NOOO! freaking $39.95! Buttheads! So I got wifey a spring time mix for $12.99 and she loves them, so neener neener flower shop!
If I hear one more jewelry store claim I am not in love, not manly, have a microscopic penis, will never get laid, and am the worst husband that ever walked the planet because I did not buy her a diamond, I am going to go postal! My spouse would be a bit ticked to have that much spent on a diamond. Spouse would rather catch up an account, tuck it away for a child, or save it for the vacation, not spend $1,200.00 on a diamond she will only wear now and then.
I hate this holiday!
