Man, the whole reason people hate Valentine's Day is because it's a holiday dedicated almost exclusively to people that are in relationships and nothing rubs salt into the wound better if you're not a part of the club. And now it's invading my favorite web forum. Damn you, Medopine.
I had to say that here, because apparently such comments are against the rules of the Valentine's Day thread. Debate, indeed. *hmph*
The reason I hate Valentine's Day is because you shouldn't need a holiday for love.
I don't see a big problem with a holiday that reminds us to express our love.
The problem is all the BUYING that is tied into it
It seems to me that people shouldn't need a reminder to express love though. Of course, I agree with your thoughts on commercializing it.
Time to take off I think and possible grab something sugery on the way. Wagga has the only cafe I've thus encountered which makes lactose-free latte. And find out how overcharged my internet time was (after sending some essay-like emails).
Also I'm possibly going to be on Today Tonight in the background in a few weeks from the shooting range here for some reason. I want to know what the story is on (the corporals and sergeants certainly weren't pleased to see them).

See, that reason, as nice and poetic as it sounds, just isn't realistic. People are lazy bastards and are bound to fall into a rut and forget to do nice things for each other. And, really, do you "need" a holiday for anything important? If it's so important, you should celebrate it everyday, without needing to be reminded, right?
I had an amazing time. There's no words to express the sheer elation that comes from being exalted with not only the present, but the present immediately thereafter, relishing each second past present and future with unmitigated delight.
There's no words to describe the elation of being happy with oneself.

'I returned to 7 East today. They all still remember me, the nurses and the attendants and the secretary. "Hello Justin," she said, "I see you're still wearing that cap of yours, Justin," and she smiled. And they all smile.
Abigail is here again as well. When I saw her last, she said it was her second time. That would make this her third and there is a saying in the ward about once you come back a third time, you're doomed to come back for life.

Eh, many holidays commemorate specific things that happened on that date in history. When it comes to Valentine's day, you aren't celebrating much related to the actual saint, rather, you're celebrating between you and your significant other. Which is why I would venture that anniversaries are much, much more important than Valentine's day: you're celebrating the chemistry between the two (sometimes more) people involved.

Amanda had made a pair of cat ears + tail for some reason in the fall of our sophomore year, and for my birthday she made a pair myself and we wore them on Field Day and were a catpeople cheer squad

You have a webcam?
We should have camsex sometime, Eddy.
Not really, though, I'm not a fan of camsex.
He said "webcam," not "Hippie's ass."
