The Valentine Thread

[Beefy187]

I'd send you a box of chocolates, but by the time it arrives in Nippon they'd probably be melted anyway V_V

Three cheers to the coolest Japanese guy of the internets!

Hooray! Hooray! Hooray!

Its ok. Its 21 degrees here. Chocolate doesn't melt below 26.

Well at least thats what the guy on the news channel told me..

[Hax]

..that chocolate doesn't melt below 26 degrees?

[Beefy187]

Im going to sue that professor.. He deserves for giving me false hope..

In my high school one can buy roses with some sort of note/message attached; these are sent to the appropriate official class mailboxes, and our OC teachers hand them out on the Homeroom day closest to Valentines (this year, it was today).

Let me tell ya, it's really amusing watching girls attempt to stuff their massive haul of flowers into their lockers.

Many even buy small bags from the school for the sole purpose of carrying the roses.

It should be noted that something like a quarter of the roses are from one guy to another guy, and half from one girl to another.

Valentine's Day is the senseless exploitation of a legitimate Saint's Feast Day. The only people who profit are card manufacturers, candy makers, and vain women.

I once had a friend who was so depressed and lonely on Valentine's Day he decided it would be possible to cheer himself up by taking the train to Darlington for the day.

Which, hopefully, is a note of encouragement for those Orgahs not expecting Valentines tomorrow. Just keep reminding yourself, "it could be worse. I could be in Darlington."

For the record, tomorrow I will be one half of one of those irritatingly smug happy couples. The plan is to go see a soppy rom com in the afternoon, followed by a fancy dinner. My smugness is somewhat tempered, however, by the facts that:

1) It will cost me an arm and a leg.

2) It will mean missing the rugby.

I'd like to officially ask ... Devastatin' Dave to be my Valentine. Please say you will, DD!

Chocolate doesn't melt below 26°...

well, I have decided on what I am going to spend febuary 14th doing.(warning: wierd and unusual behavior included):

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

1-praying that I can forget what happened 2 years ago.
2-listening to the most depressing rammstein songs..
3-doing an online VCT quiz for physics (amazingly, though I'm a poor mathematician, I'm doing pretty good (average: 99)).
4-finishing the online chemskill builder.
5-email that portuguese uniform over to Richard, for www.kronoskaf.com , plus a few more other things too complicated for non SYW buffs
6-engage in the ritual, held since 2008, of al-madhallah (lit. place of humilition)*
7-cry like a baby (actually, I won't, but you get the idea)
8-drown myself in some more work. helps me not to remember what happened that long ago.
9-of course, the only non depressing part, aside from prayer: post here with all my cyberfriends, as all my close friends have either suffered PTCD**, or are miles away, and I have no car. darn, still depressing.
10-remember and laugh at the incident, where this guy theatened me (jokingly), with "disappearence", me telling him he doesn't scare me, and a friend then quipping him that I had been through worse, in reference to that time in highschool along with that embarrassing incident in St.francis college, when I made that dumb answer. doh! even more depressing.

and lastly:

I will pull a spoof of the linkara "I am a man!" joke. here is the draft of what I have to say:

"I am a heartbroken misereable mutt, who is confused as to whether he is American or Arab, which means that I probably have to go to the library an read on this subject, as being born of 2 diametrically opposed cultures is not covered in the media as It should be" *punches some random fellows guts out*

even more depressing.


*it involved self whipping with a fake whip, banging me head through a wall, all while saying "darn ye!"-still hurts though. the head butting part is ok though-being khaleeli has advantages

**PTCD: post traumatic college disorder. symptoms are losing control of thyself, falling into the wrong crowd, doind drugs, and slipping grades. I just plain suffer from something locally known as "the chills": chilling flashbacks hurt. no I don't suffer from PTCD.

Well... I have to run some errands, do some homework, study math and physics, watch 1 or2 episodes of band of brothers, play a campaign mission of band of brothers and o to the cinema with some friends to watch operation walkure.

The bad thing is... that I need to study, and I'm nto sure if its such a good idea to go to the cinema, oh well...

Who needs a gf when you have physics, chemistry and such.

Me and my Mrs:

We were planning to go to Delphi but it is snowing...

We might go to Mycenai instead but it is still under debate.

Then we will go for a dinner.

<--- The fact that she prefers to see a historical sight instead of just getting a bunch of dead vegetation is one of the main reasons that she is my Mrs

Woke up. Worked 9 hours. Ate dinner. Showered. Watched TV. Posted on Org.

You know how my Valentines day started? I woke up in my shitty little apartment on the edge of town in Szeged, went to take a shower and found out that the water did not work, so I went to the kitchen sink, washed my face and hands, dressed, went to the supermarket to do some shopping. Went home and found out that the woman had taken advantage of my foriegner status and wrang my fish fingers up three times (They cost 900 Forints each), then settled down on my computer to Skype call my gf and tell her something romantic. She was not signed into Skype, so I logged onto my email to see what was up. She got her eye scratched by her stupid cat this morning when she was playing with it. She is gonna be ok, but right now she has to put crap into it and she says it hurts a tonne. Now I am gonna go do some romantic laundry, clean my bathroom in a romantic fashion, take a much needed romantic nap (I have been getting VERY little sleep lately), then finish the day off by doing my Magyarora homework.


(And if you think that is too much bad luck for a holiday, then you should have seen last Valentines day. We decided that we were gonna go to Romy's (It is a Nightengale that is locally very popular here and serves VERY good food). I go to her house to pick her up and she jumps into my arms and wedges her darned knee right into my darned testicles. I spent the rest of that night barely being able to move on her parents couch wishing that I could die, then she drove me home and wouldn't stop crying and apologizing. That was when I decided that Valentines day stinks.
I didn't make any of that up either. Valentines day really stinks.

Update: We went to Mucenae and Nemea (where Hercules killed the lion). There was no lion but we took the local wine road and went wine tasting in a recommended winemaker. We left with 9 bottles of wine :)

We have some cool pics. I ll make an album later...

Well well, this day's plan is works wonderful!!!
Thanks Vuk...

Today, I send a SMS to my girl, I ask her to go together for some windowshooping and eat together, we goes well, and I give a great treat for her... While her ask "Koq tumben lu ngajak gw jalan?" (Its so rarely you ask me for a date), I look directly into her eyes and said "Gw masih cowo! jadi gw pengen melewatin hari istimewa ini ama lu!!!" (I'M STILL A MAN (*.thx Vux!!!) So I just want to get this special day with you!!!) and I give her a flower.......





Happy Valentine for me.......




And hope it was good day for everyone too......

[Rhyfelwyr]

My day - alternate between modding and debating the doctrine of predestination in the Backroom.

I'm a true romantic.

[Cute Wolf]

Wow, John Calvin will be proud of you...

[||Lz3||]

So far...

1- Woke up witha headache at 10:00 am
2- Had some eggs for breakfast (I hate eggs)
3- Went to get a haircut
4- Went all the way downtown to buy a book I was assigned to read. They didn't have it, so I had to go to another library.
5- Go to the fruit store. To buy... fruit.
6- Came back to my home, watched some "band of brothers", and then played a mission of COH.
7- Got bored, so I'll go to get something to eat... alone.

Keep tuned

[pevergreen]

Its called Singles Awareness Day for a reason...

My day was good, i just found out there was an artist called the teddybears and i like almost every song ive heard so far

[Alexanderofmacedon]

I woke up went to football practice, but couldn't play because I'm injured. I then proceeded to go play FIFA '09 with a friend and get my butt kicked multiple times. I went home for lunch to find my mother was upset with me after she prepared a great lunch that I didn't get to eat right away (because I went to play FIFA with a friend).

I sit at home reading "The Logic of Life: The Rational Economics of an Irrational World", which is pretty good, but I'm a bit tired so I accidentally fall asleep for about an hour. This is absolutely horrible because I hate naps and haven't taken one in at least a year; I feel horribly disoriented and drowsy when I take them.

So then I'm home all alone because my dad's old friend is in town and my mother and sisters are seeing my grandparents and I was supposed to have dinner with a lady friend (it really is just a friend), but received no word from her (it was a tentative plan).

So here I am posting on WAF about my wonderful....and I mean wonderful Valentines day.

[a completely inoffensive name]

I decided to spend my Valentines Day spending time with all the other singles on the off topic section of an online forum dedicated to a brand of video games.

You are one lucky dog you! A historically inclined woman in the heart of the origins of European culture and history. And from what I've read in other threads, fairly well off too

Well, my Valentines sucked goat nads....

First of all "Aunt Flow" is in town this weekend, so no Valentine's booty. Then at 0400 Valentine's morning I rollover and my 5 year old boy is in bed with us burning up with a fever. The old lady and I had planned to drop the kids off at my 3 year old daughter gym (she's our little gymnist) because they're having a parent's night out so you can drop off the kids before you run off and drop off some tadpoles (of course that wasn't gonna happen cuz Aunt Flow was still chillin in the swimming hole). So for the night I cleaned our pet rabbit's cage (no sexual innuendo), picked up my daughter's new dresser and carried the mutha up the stairs by me self, and took the old dresser to some friends of ours that are making the same life mistakes we did when we were younger. So next year, I'm cancelling this Halmark holiday BS and gettin torqued!!!
