I hate anything that you need to buy a card for. Paying for the pleasure to give someone a piece of cardboard containing some mass printed clichés churned out of a factory about how much they mean to you... fuck off.
Who is buying valentine presents today ? Flowers, chocolates, otters, dwarfs, melons etc?
Nah, you have all year to show the person you love how much they mean to you.
Cards are only worthwhile if you're sending it to someone far away from you, like a postcard. The whole routine of getting cards on birthdays and Christmas and having to open it and act with an over the top sense of gratitude and appreciation that is clearly inappropriate for the gesture of giving a card makes me cringe. So pointless.
"To ordinary mind,
My special little valentine...
Love from Mum"
Oh gee thanks, made my day.
(I feel I should point out the above exchange never actually happened, just an example.)
We don't buy into it either - I find it a bit of a silly notion that I have to wait until this date to 'prove' that I care about you by buying a specific gift. We're the same with Christmas but we still buy a birthday card. we have said for years that this is the last one but we still continue to buy them. It's his birthday next so maybe I'll be the first one to start :D
something so cheesy he has to laugh because humour is far more attractive than paper
Agreed on both counts.Just don't take anything from the shit joke thread and then strip off out a bathrobe, I don't know how well that would work :DMake yourself the card Bear...
Love my doctor. 20 x 40mg oxycontin and 20 x 10mg IR oxynorm for my knee which is still killing me (cough cough) and 25 x 10mg Temazepam to help me sleep. Sorted.
