Tgk Feisal, general secretary of the Aceh Ulema Association (HUDA), stated that “It is haram for Muslims to observe Valentine’s Day because it does not accord with Islamic Sharia.”

...as the disciples of Andrea Dworkin angrily explain, the day is a manifestation of how capitalist and homophobic patriarchs brainwash and oppress women and push them into spheres of powerlessness.

The psych ward
Brought home flowers after work and told her I was going to take her out to dinner tonight. She was all happy. Then around 8:30 or so she twinked on me (Are we going to sell the RV? We can't stop saving--we need to set financial goals, blah, blah, blah). I said I'm not an ATM and can't pull money out of my butt. I'm giving her $$ every paycheck because she "decided she didn't want to be a hair stylist anymore and was taking a break." That was January 2010. Granted, she spent a lot of time during the past spring and summer taking care of her mother and she just got a part-time job working 18 hours a week making more than what I'm giving her every two weeks. But I'm supposed to come up with all this extra money to put in savings while she doesn't come clean with her own finances. I pay for everything except for the bulk of the groceries and fuel for her cars. I'm even paying $200+ per month because she smokes. She said we need a budget and I laid everything out on the table back in 2010 showing her where the money went. Apparently she has forgotten.....

Well, eff dinner tonight. I don't feel like spending Valentine's Day with her. Just call me bitter.

can one expound on the goodness and joy they feel for valentines day here? or would that be as much a faux pas as whining in the other thread?

so, were you mad at your sister for shagging him? or yourself for lack of providing satisfaction and therefore he had to seek it elsewhere? I'm very confused by your post... eek blush laugh shocked confused

My cousin Mindy shagged all three of the Fingerson brothers during high school. They were wrestlers. She had a thing for wrestlers. And they had a thing for an easy lay 'pparently.

I guess everyone was happy.

He got with neither of us. ::adjusts halo::

And, before anyone asks, no, I don't have twin cousins.

Seem like a simple choice.

Hamburgers are good

I don't remember any particularly bad Valentine's days, but no particularly good ones either! I do my best to ignore it, though I don't think I've been single for one since some time in early high school.

I do remember once in 4th grade, a girl put a tack on my chair when I was passing out my cards, turns out she liked me. Love was simple back in those days!

Worst... Senior year of High School. Never had a BF, but every year my older sister would send me flowers on Valentine's Day, only she forgot my Senior year! How heartbreaking!!! Poor poor me! (It's no boyfriend lying about shagging, but...) smile

I've never really cared for VD. Sappy people really get on my nerves. And contrived happy people make me want to go on a shootin' spree. Just thinking about all the wasted flowers on this one day is annoying. Plus the long lines at restaurants, dim lighting and putrid love-song musak do about as much for my libido as rotting fish.

BTW, I ♥ you kitten for providing an outlet for us like-minded individuals. wink

You're welcome BaBo. I get that people don't love today. I get why. But I love it and I don't want people to poo on my favorite day.

So, that said, bring on the horror stories.

wait, now you want to limit when people can go to the bathroom? especially with the amount of chocolate that will be consumed today. Are you some kind of masochist? there is something really wrong with you... shocked

Just do not refer to it as Hallmark day (learn from my mistake).
Mistake 1 do not respond to BOL threads prior to second cup of coffee.
