Valentine's slay, Caring and Love: Today, I tried convincing my Valentine-hating boyfriend to send...

Today, I tried convincing my Valentine-hating boyfriend to send me a card, by explaining how important it is to me. He finally agreed and sent me a card. I opened it up, and it wished me 'harmony and well-being on Lupercalia'. What is Lupercalia? It's an ancient Roman festival where men run down the street naked, whipping people with goat skins to encourage fertility. FML

Today, I got an early Valentine's day card. My boyfriend and I recently broke up, and my hopes shot up thinking it might be from him. It wasn't. It was from my parents. FML

Today, as part of a charity project called Operation Valentine, I worked with 150 other volunteers to make care packages and Valentine's Day cards to send to the troops in Afghanistan, thanking them for their courage. My boyfriend called the cards "cheating" and now refuses to see me. FML

Today, my boyfriend still doesn't "believe" in Valentine's Day. Every year I feel stupid for caring about this. FML

Today, I received a single, hand-made Valentine's card from the weirdest kid in the school. It said, "If you ever get mauled by a bear, I hope he doesn't damage your face." FML

Today, the only card I got for Valentine's Day was in my mother's handwriting, and she posted it through the front door herself. She still won't admit it's from her. FML

Today, I got a reply to my Valentine's Day card that I sent to my girlfriend. I'll get the address right next time because her neighbor is really creeping me out now. FML

Today, I pointed out to my boyfriend how Valentine's day, my birthday, and our one-year anniversary were all coming up in the next few weeks. He then promptly broke up with me. FML

He's a keeper

Today, I decided to ask the guy I like if he'll be my Valentine. I wrote the question on a piece of paper and passed it to him, trying to be cute. He read it, wrote his answer with a smile, and passed it back. It said, "Depends, do you swallow?" No, no I don't. FML

Today, my boyfriend came to visit me for my birthday. Over dinner he handed me a blank card that had the words "I love you" hastily written on it. When the waiter came to take our order he informed him that we'd be paying separately. Happy Birthday. FML

That's why you shouldn't force your boyfriend to do nice things for you. It won't happen (and with good reason).

Hmm... Since most Christian holidays actually have pagan origins, I think I'm going to start sending cards celebrating the pagan holiday for every major holiday. Anybody got any more?

Yeah, I think it's funny when Christians try and say their holidays don't have pagan influence. ALL of them are pagan! Easter: a rabbit. really? the pagan symbol for fertility? Christmas: Jesus wasn't born in the winter! they covered up Yule and the winter solstice and all that is awesome about that season with a fat man in a red suit who watches little children and puts presants under a tree as payment for their 'good deeds'. Valentines day is really just a government holiday though. It's all just a way to cause stress, depression, panic, and annoyance and all for the sake of us meat heads buying a whole LOT of little pink things.
