"Valentines Day."

Is it:

A). The perfect time of year to show your love to someone, wether you're in a relationship or not.

B). A complete marketing rip-off designed to make you spend lots of money.

C). Something that only people in relationships need to worry about.



Discuss.

Right, I want an argument.

Go read my post, then say 'B'. Come on, bring it on...

Not true, the peasant hordes, ravaged with AIDs, have been given the very worst existances and yet I would argue that it is not directly their fault or that they can do anything about it.

Enjoy your Valentines Days.

The guy outside Fopp.

B.

it seems like a ritual people undertake once a year to make life easier for their partners. in itself not a bad thing, but why not just LIVE like that?? do nice things, help people out, make others feel good?
it certainly comes across as a once-a-year gesture so people can get away with being a bit crap the rest of the year....

well, that's my cynical viewpoint anyways :)

I do cook a mean do-a-dance-chocs-respectively, but it's never made anybody get naked after tasting it.
