It's Valentine's Day. So what's your point?
Let the other morons feed each other candy out of heart-shaped boxes while wearing silk undies and quoting Elizabeth Barrett Browning -- you and I remember all the shitty, lonely and/or humiliating Feb 14ths that have come and gone in these, our decidedly non-Hallmarkian real lives.
Whether you're truly an anti-romantic or just having a bad day, the good news is that you don't have to sulk and scowl in your filthy apartment this year. Leave your heroin-addict significant other at home (but hide your ATM card) and come out to Cafe Du Nord, where, "pumped on sex-hormones and black coffee, drunk with the horny mating rituals of the urban damned," Lydia Lunch, Cara Bruce, Thomas Roche and Blag Dahlia will tell it like it is.
As the devil-dressed-as-Cupid on your other shoulder says: "Sex ain't pretty, and neither are you."

Maybe this will cheer you up.
Loser.
I unrelated news, it is now legal to own a dildo in Texas -- just in time for V-Day! Somewhere, Molly Ivans is smiling. :)

You mean once upon time it was illegal to own one? Christian fundies are so weird ...
Actually boner day is in March.
Steak and Blowjob Day falls on March 14th.
No cards, no flowers, no presents, no special nights out on the town. Just a steak and a knob. Maybe a beer if you really love the person.
Lulu: When Molly died last year, CC put up a video that she did on just that subject. It is hysterical. It's those conservative family values, doncha know.
For people who such issues with teh icky sex, they spend a boatload of time obsessing over it.
It's that fundagelicalism. They feel Godlier the more temptation they're forced to resist. And if they fall, well, sin and redemption, over and over again, is holier than never sinning in the first place. Don't ask why; it just is.
I've always marveled at how, in the Red states, the strip clubs and the discount liquor stores are there right beside the fundy churches on the main street.
Like in Quebec, except with self-righteous prudes.
lydia lunch! christ, it's been a couple of decades. she showed us her nipples once. really.
