I enjoy reading, writing, and painting. I love animals and at present have one dog (Sam) and 2 cats (brother and sister, Notwen and Pouncer). I've lived in various places in the USA and now in Canada. I've always enjoyed watching life and people and have developed an appreciation for it all. My outlook is sometimes out of the normal.... but that's what makes things so interesting! I am always interested in the opinions of others. Everyone has their own outlook and it's always worthwhile to listen!

Not where one gets off work, no. Not as far as I know. It’s just something that has been widely spread through the greeting card greedy corporations and some fall for it.
I’ve been married twice Mark, neither one was what you call a Valentine guy, but that’s ok, I wasn’t a Valentine girl. It just never bothered me single or married.
Awesome! My take on the actual “holiday” is that if you feel you have to wait until a special day some company made up to tell your special someone how you feel, you probably need drugs worse than I do.
You love the holiday as much as I do, I can tell. Who the heck are they trying to fool. Kinda hate mothers day and Christmas too for all the expectations. I’m with you. Show me your kindness everyday or go away. I’ll do the same. I send cards for no occasion. Loved the comics though.

Never really was Vanessa, even when I was younger. I would rather be told “I love you’ everyday, then just on one special day. 🙂 That’s just me.

Cyanide & Happiness is an awesome comic, as shown by this one.
When I was in relationships the guys never were into the holiday, so it’s all the same for me now.
It was cute to see how M would act when he had a girlfriend during the holiday though. 🙂

I think it’s different when you’re young like M. I’ve just never been into it myself.

Yes I agree Jackie, overblown and why only one day in the year. Is VD an actual holiday in some places?

With my dear wife Karen to be secure and happy with, I’m all for Valentine’s Day, Jackie. For singledom, not so great.

That’s cool for you, Jackie. Some are, some are not. I like giving a box of candy, a card, and getting a big smile.
