In the past few days I have had a bunch of bad shit happen. I was supposed to get a refund for one of my courses but my school hasn't cashed my cheque. I was also supposed to get a bunch of money from my dad but he's been called out of town on work. And now I've just come back from the bank, where they were supposed to have my Visa card waiting for me, but I can't get it since I don't have any valid photo ID.
I now have $10 in cash and $18 left in my bank account. That cash is already going to be used up on bus fare.
I'm supposed to be meeting my girlfriend for Valentine's day in ... two hours.
I need ideas here people. How much romance can I pull off in 120 minutes for less than $20?
We already have a valentine's day thread, but feel free to bitch here about how you've screwed up, gotten screwed, or aren't getting screwed the way you want.

So a few years back, my dad decided to tan a deer hide. He had a wheelbarrow full of water and chemicals, and he told me not to get near it, because it would probably dump over. Unfortunately, it was positioned right outside the pathway to the backdoor. I was taking out the trash and accidently knocked it over. I got yelled at and had to pay for the water and the chemicals.
Seriously, I hardly do anything on Valentine's day than spend it with the person I'm with. If it's our first I'll get her something and then go out to eat at a nice place.
But if I've been with her for a few valentine's I'll just spend all day with her and we do all of our normal crap together.
I feel it's not that big a deal if you've been with someone longer than a year or so.

you know Rolo, why don't you just man up and tell her what happened and that you can't afford to go out instead of blowing what little cash you have left?

Yeah I was thinking about postponing the entire thing by a few days, and just making it up to her later on.

If we're talking about shitty things, the guy who taught me how to throw german potato masher grenades died the other day.
He was this great old man with this great sense of humour who fought in the resistance with my grandfather during german occupation. He moved out here with my grandparents, and because he and his wife never had any kids, they were sort of adopted into the family as an extra set of uncles.
Had this great orchard full of fruit down in the sunny rural part of the country. He'd come up and visit every now and then, and he'd love to try and instruct the grandchildren (that's me and my siblings and cousins) on useful life lessons in case the world went to shit, like how to avoid getting shot in time of war, and the correct manner to insult superiors.
He had a series of strokes and heart attacks this past week. It's a horrible shame he's gone, because he was a great, funny guy who had seen and experienced so much, a good dude who just knew that all you really needed to be happy was friends and family and a little orchard in a town in the sunny part of the country.
Just tell her what happened and if she's a reasonable human being she'll understand?
seriously, shit just happens sometimes, and it's not your fault
hell, could be worse
my sister used to date a guy who would deliberately break up with her shortly before things like valentines and christmas and her birthday and then try to get back together afterwards
and it seemed like everyone in the family noticed the pattern long before she did

My stepson has a girlfriend who broke up with him through the fall and then got back together with him just in time for Christmas.
ok so last september I was out celebrating my birthday and got very drunk. Because I was in such a state, I found walking difficult and had quite a bad fall. But, being the trooper that I am, I got back up and limped around for the rest of the night thinking "walk it off, just walk it off"
One month later I finally finish walking it off, without ever seeing a doctor, and things go back to normal. Until last week when my knee cap fell out. Apparently, all the tissue on the inside of my knee was torn to shit and it was just a matter of time before my knee destroyed itself. I am now in a full time leg brace for 5 weeks and I cannot bend my knee or the tissue will never repair itself.

If you've been with her for a while, thats all you need.
Right?
step two: throw away packaging from fast food italian
step three: everclear
step four: cheapest and best valentine's day ever!
I have to take the subway to meet her downtown, one back to her place, and then a subway back to my place tomorrow. $2.75 per ride.
But if I've been with her for a few valentine's I'll just spend all day with her and we do all of our normal crap together.

No transfers?
Nah, only if you're using the bus system, but that's for continuous travel only.
man what kind of shitty ass town doesn't even give you transfers for $2.75
I think that's $12, but either way, the bus fare is the least of my worries.

Druhim, old people keep making the same jokes because they keep forgetting that they've already made it 100 times

Long story short: always see a doctor!
The fancy stuff has an insane markup, its true.
Wait I mean I have no idea about how much a dildo costs.
