Valentines Day

[Kan' Sharuminar]

I drew a card with a bunch of dinosaurs that said "I hope if dinosaurs go on a rampage they don't eat you as I think you're kinda cute" for a customer at work that I like.

Sadly, she didn't come into the shop this week, but damn I drew some good dinosaurs, so I consider this year a draw.

 

[Takhisis]

You draw some comfort from the fact that you drew some dinosaurs?

 

[Kan' Sharuminar]

Yeah man, dinosaurs are one of the most fun things to draw.

Spoiler :

 

[Takhisis]

I want one of those!

 

[Shaihulud]

Condom broke, hopes nothing comes out of it.

I took Mrs Simnel out to a half-decent restaurant.

I quite agree with the sentiment about Valentine's Day being a commercialised exploitation of people's love for each other. That said, I just didn't want my significant other to have to explain to her friends and co-workers that I was such a curmudgeonly sod that I wasn't prepared to swallow my principles in order to demonstrate my love for her. I mean, if we were talking about really key, deep-rooted principles, it might be different. But my only principle at stake here was my traditional Scottish dislike of not being over-charged, and I ought to be able to trample on that as part of a demonstration of lurrve.

 

[Takhisis]

Traditional dislike of being overcharged, you mean.

Show your love every day, that'll impress Mrs Simnel (who I assume has the terrible misfortune of being English). Flowers, shaving, dressing when you go out. I'd also propose showering but that'd be a bit too far IMHO.

Yeah, that's the one.

And where did you get the impression I don't do all of that (even the showering...)? It's not an either/or proposition - you can be kind and loving all year round, and still make an effort on Valentine's Day. I'm suspecting you ain't been having much luck with the ladies, Mr Tak...

 

[classical_hero]

Now we have a'Lovers' Month' so we're all supposed to buy stuff. Just like the Coca-Cola designed Santa Claus, the point

Nope! Santa claus and all that crap was invented by Coca-Cola!

That is entirely false.

 

[Godwynn]

I can run faster horny than my crush can scared.

 

[Takhisis]

Yeah, that's the one.

Maybe you're becoming too much of an Englishman if you can't get such priorities straight.

It makes the Valentine's Day requirement$ smaller.


Why is the showering singled out?

I'm suspecting you ain't been having much luck with the ladies, Mr Tak...

Tha' one was below the belt. I'm an Internet person! What do you expect?

That is entirely false.

The modern gift-giving icon of consumerism is mainly Coca-Cola's fault. of course Sinterklaas and suchlike have existed since before Coke.

[Silurian]

before Coke= BC

In order:

1. Maybe, maybe...
2. Pah.
3. You singled it out first - check your own posts, man!
4. Ah, good point - you're right.

 

[Takhisis]

Yes, asking me to shower is unrealistic. Asking others, who knows?
