Happy what? - Page 7

I don't like Valentine's Day, it's a waste, but I'm not gonna get in the way of anybody's good time

No, surely I don't like those gifts. I said so above! Yep, commercialism ruins everything, and that's why I make a lot of gifts I give for holidays, and focus chiefly on the time and love given, as opposed to what people imply is supposed to be done or spent. Like I said - we don't give Valentine gifts, we do what makes us feel romantic. Obviously, much like you do. We just have different ideas of what's romantic. And probably somewhere out there, there's someone who genuinely thinks that ugly stuffed frog is romantic.

But I missed the overtones of humor in your thread; to me it came across as bitter and snide. I shouldn't have taken it personally, but yeah, I'm on obnoxiously sensitive asshole sometimes and I accept that.

No. You should not have taken it personally.

I am not bitter and any snide tone was in an OP I did not write- I copied.

For fun.

You know, I took Nephy's OP as something fun, comedic.

I have no Valentine's Day beau today, but that's okay.
Besides, I want my man to worship me everyday not just on Valentine's Day and on my birthday.

As you should be

Wow, people really take this sort of thing seriously. Honestly, guys, it's all as we perceive it, and if you enjoy the holiday truly, someone else's lack of enjoyment shouldn't constitute a "rained on parade." It's not like anyone here's been criticized for enjoying the holiday. Sheesh!

And you know what... I think you guys are raining on the anti-VD parade!

Hrmph!

At any rate, reeeeeelax everyone. It's another day on the calendar, and for me, it'll be over in 12 hours. Not that it's a bad thing. Today has been generally beautiful, aside from a headache. And, I get to talk to my boyfriend when he gets out of work tonight. In other news, he and his co-worker Steve who had to go to Iowa, are going out on a lovely Valentine's Day dinner since they're both solo... for which I will tease him mercilessly!

Edited to add: I had a bunch of tabs open... I should have refreshed the page before I posted this. I don't mean to make anyone else more upset, and I apologize if this does. But, I'm not editing it to be different, because I love you all, and wish you a Happy Valentine's Day (Or Happy ValenTIMES Day, and I used to call it), and I wish the stupidity of confusion would cease shortly hereafter, so that we don't have to get all hung up on our hang ups. KTHX.

I have been wishing everyone, "Happy V.D."

That is meant to sound like a disease- right?

I imagine so! (I get no end of enjoyment from calling it that too.)
