I've never understood the whole priniciple of sending cards with hearts on. Maybe I'm cynical but in my opinion men only give you flowers when they have done something bad. Either way the whole world gets hopped up on all the wonderful Hallmark love and run around like giddy teenagers for the day, overlooking the real facts of Valentines Day and why it should be abolished. These are just five reasons why I think it's pretty much bollocks.
1. its based around the martycism of St Valentine who was beheaded for refusing to deny Christ (and this has what to do with giving people cards with slushy messages in and crappy stuffed bears holding "I love you". St V was brutally murdered. it hardly speaks of love!)
2. It makes SINGLE people feel like shit
3. It makes guys in relationships feel even shitter because they not only have to think of original gifts for her birthday, and christmas he now has to pull the ultimate romantic evening
4. One day of the year you're supposed to show someone how much you care by giving them some shitty piece of card with some lame message in. what about the other 364 days of the year?
5. no one really sees it for what it is... a capitalistic commercialised pile of butt wank.
You guys buying into all this shit are the idiots who make the idiots who come up with this shit rich!
