So, it's Valentines Day. Nearly.
What are you doing? Get any cards? Give any?

I don't celebrate the holiday.
My wife hates that, not surprisingly.

I haven't thought about it. I should probably at least take my wife to diner.

I don't think I've ever bothered celebrating a Valentine's Day. I don't remember catching flak for that, either.

Not at all. If its an excuse to get some in some super sexy way, I got nothing against it.

If I had ANY hope of that I'd be all over it.
Sadly, no romantic gesture of any kind has ever had that effect. Ever.

Haha, I didn't mention part of the reason I don't bother is I'm not a fan of manufactured holidays.
If it weren't for Italian guilt I wouldn't bother with Mother's Day, either.

That couldn't have been phrased less sexily.
That also limits your "options" later, if you know what I mean.

In that order:
1. You’re right, so it is. Completely forgotten all about it.
2. PHP class count?
3. Nope.
4. Nope.

Once.

I will be buying a card and stupid stuffed animal at the Hallmark store, and present those to my girlfriend while we watch the Hallmark channel.

I bought my wife a card, some shoes, and a skirt. She actually purchased the shoes and skirt with my money, but it's from me. We both agreed that if I tried to buy her something, I would've screwed it up big time.
I hate Valentine's Day. Just another empty-the-consumer's-wallet holiday.

Since my girlfriend is 5 hours away, I sent her a care package including 30-some freshly-baked cookies to share with her roommates, a bag of Hershey's Kisses, I cute pictureframe with a picture of the two of us in it, all packed in pink heart tissue paper with tons of confetti shaped like lips poured in the box. In addition, I asked her a while ago what her favorite candy was, and she told me chocolate-covered gummy bears, so I had a pound sent to her. It turns out she was out drinking when I asked her and her friend told her to give that answer because they're nearly impossible to find. She was right. And I sent cards to 7 of my female friends thanking them for being a part of my life.
What do I win?

I value good grammar over breasts, so I'm in.
Just kidding. Boobs rock.
Actually I just found my care package outside with the mail...I got a bunch of candles (I love candle), some fridge magnets (I need them), Poker for dummies(I just started playing (and losing) with the other interns), and an incredible card...and it's all scented. Absolutely perfect.

For what it's worth, my post did exist for about a minute and a half WITHOUT that white text...it was more of an afterthought. Fortunately for me, my girlfriend excels in both areas.
