Happy Valentine's Day....

...to the cynics...






What evah...




I've always wanted to make a candy heart with my signature phrase




For the true romantics...



And this one has made me laugh for a long time.  Not specifically Valentine's Day related but truth in advertising.

Hahahaha... I love Flight of the Concords!

Yeah, ST. V's Day is very commercial. I buy into it every year. But in my defense, I love to give presents... and any occasion will do. I love figuring out what will light up someone's face and seeing what they think will light up mine.

LOL on the true gift of love being a funeral. I think that might scare the crap out of me.

Yeah, I'm a total cynic when it comes to Valentine's Day. With the kids, their activities, our jobs, and several other major factors making the fake holiday a pain in the butt we just skip it and try and sleep longer the following weekend.

So that video about covers everything for me.

My friend Melissa says it best.

Happy Icky Pink Day.

Your Valentine's heading caught my atencion at Beach Bum's blog, just browsing some for breakfast, and Yes, it's all ritual : ) ... Thanx for the funnies : )

It's my favorite day of the year! I wasn't called 'Love Child' in college for nothing!

Craig said...

I guess I shouldn't be surprised, but there's a whole line of, um, R-rated candy hearts. . .

And you know, the funeral thing. . . together forever, right?

And, @Bijoux, I'm instantly curious. . . if it's wasn't for nothing, why WERE you called 'Love Child' in college? Just, you know, if you want to share. . .

;)

And the funeral thing, wow. I mean, really, wow.

craig, oh trust me i could have gone far worse with the candy hearts....

Bijoux said...

@Craig - Because I've been consistently enamoured by someone since 2nd grade.

Sailor said...

Funny... I think the funeral thing would be creepy though.
Happy V-Day to you :)

As always, I love your take on things, Michelle. I can always count on you to come up with a unique perspective or some offbeat humor to make the ordinary interesting and scitillating.

Loved the video. Even moreso, I followed the viewing of it to some equally thought-provoking and laugh-inducing YouTube videos, including this one:

I hope the above works! ;-D
