Okay, this is my 'Valentine Haiku' and as the title suggests I am less than fond of Valentine's day...very bitter about it in fact. Just wondering, does Valentine's day exist in places besides Britain? It's something that has only just occurred to me. Valentine Haiku: People in love, at It like rabbits - hope they get Myamatosis* *I'm not sure about my spelling of that!
ha! nice! i think valentine's is recognized (and despised) in most western countries, a few eastern ones too. myxomatosis: Easter bunny’s off tonight, his balls are blistered, his ass is swollen
Why thankyou. Mmm, if you're in love then Valentine's day is just an excuse to be smug...if you're single, it's more of an excuse to commit suicide, meh Damn I'm so bitter, I'm twisted up to the core! LOVE
I dont despise V Day, it is special to me. My friends and i would make it a point to spend that evening dining together. I remember how thrilled we were when we got a free ice cream pizza (marzipan base...it was yummy)...One of my happiest memores from those years.
Huh? I'm not against Valentine's day any more than I am any other over-hyped and commercial date of little real significance.
Agreed, it's a stupid "holiday" for the greeting card companies and jewelery salesmen, and just a burden to most of the rest of us. I don't let it get me down though, if you're single and that upset about it, you have issues. I mean, sure, maybe it reminds you and all, but come on. If you're that uphappy, do something about it, don't mope. Maybe figure out why you feel you need someone so much. (these are general comments, not directed at anyone specific). Anyways, cute poem, but whats myxomatosis?
Mxymotosis is a disease that rabbits get...and rabbits also get a lot of sex, presumably...I mean, the phrase 'at it like rabbits' would suggest so!
I wouldn't say I am unduly bitter about Valentine's Day...however I love and am loved, in so many of it (love's) variations, and like all people I am sometimes happy; sometimes sad and almost always indefinite with either. I know you said your comments were general, and not diirected at anyone, but I feel I should explain before you think me to be some vengeful recluse. And yes I probably do have issues (in fact I know I do - doesn't everyone?) But my personal life is no reason to attack the Pope Gelasius* (*the bloke responsible for the advent of Valentine's). Have a wonderful February 14th, darling people, and please each take a complimetary hug and kiss on your way to the celebration! X
Right right, I just meant those people who sit around on V day all depressed because they're alone and "everyone" else has a girl/boy friend...I think that's entirely the wrong attitude.
People do that? Hell no, on the 14th I shall be dressing as a giant red velvet heart and frequenting a local club of mine, trying to persuade the most unlikliest of people to give me a kiss. If I can find the heart costume by this weekedn, that is. Otherwise I'll just be going out dressed like, um, everyone else. And getting drunk
~* Most holidays are over hyped. After working in retail hell for ten years I depise it all. Valentines Day just makes me fell a bit sadder and older and a touch more melancholy.*~
