Anyone else glad for the end of valentine's ads?

The "hoody, footy," the four foot tall love bear (because size matters, wink wink).

Every kiss begins with k.

And the less than subtle suggestion that if you buy you sweetheart that big bear, she will engage in the wildest, most passionate animal sex ever.

With you, even.

All it takes for you to turn that chilly babe into a sexual inferno is a hoody footy. "How to keep thing hot on those chilly nights..."

Please.

And if you don't buy the stupid bear or the pajamas or the flowers, you will never have sex again. With anyone.

Enough.

Unlike New Year's, at least people won't be wishing one another Valentine's Day for another week or two afterwards.

I reached a certain age where I no longer really wanted things. It's weird but for a couple years I had no word for it. I thought maybe I was just cheap, but it was really not wanting to be so tied down by "things". I stopped asking for anything on birthdays or holidays. Eventually I realized there other people like me, called "minimalists", and the truth really set me free. I found out there were a lot of other people who simply don't want anything. The website becomingminimalist.com is a great place to check out if you have these feelings.

Anyway, to your point Oakton, once I stopped feeling weird, I started realizing how much we are sold to NON STOP 24x7. It's nuts. I think of all these smart programmers in silicon valley working on ways to show me more relevant banner ads and it cracks me up. How do you sell someone who doesn't want anything?

My wife and I were in the Dollar Tree store yesterday in Marion...while we were there I showed my wife a nice card from the card rack and pointed out some Valentine's Day balloons they had displayed. She really appreciated the sentiment.

I always figured you for the mushy sentimental type.

Here's a few Valentines you probably didn't see as much, but I hear are very popular inside the WH:

Nope...we don't do Valentine's Day, Mother's Day or Father's Day (or any of the Hallmark Holidays)...they're just another day.

[oaktonhokie]

Valentines day is stupid. Never celebrated it, never will.

Can't do much about mother's and father's day. My parents like to be thought of....

OK.

Mom and dad earned it (especially with you). Women haven't earned a special day.

No. I'd like for Outback to have the Valentines deal every Friday. Best day of the year to eat out reasonably

[USN_Hokie]

Valentine's day is the absolute worst day to ever try eating out...
