Okay, so normally I would do the whole, "I hate Valentine's Day" rant right about now.

However.

I have something even sillier to add to my list than the actual Hallmark Holiday itself.

This post in news.

You hate Valentines Day, you say? Don't want to buy into the whole commercialism of it, you say? Why not purchase an Anti-Valentine's Day gift so that you too can show the world just how much you loathe the commercialized byproduct of Hallmark's Spawn?

::snorts:: Does anyone else see the irony here?

...waugh.

Well, my actual reaction was more of a ::headdesk:: type one, but... yeah.

I think your icon pretty much sums it up ;)

One again: I love you so hard for actually knowing what the word "irony" means.

::snickers:: I'm thinking about making up another icon in parody of TNT. Only, instead of "LJ: We know drama," it'll be "LJ: We know Irony." Or something to that effect...

But yeah. Do that many people misuse the word that often? I mean, I use big words that most of my undereducated peers cannot comprehend, but then I'm fairly used to it around here by now.

Just makes me wish that Connecticut had as good a schooling system as they pretend to.

Speaking of grammar and oh-my-gods-no! situations, back when I worked at the grocery store there was some sixteen-year-old-ish girl that stopped by with a box of dry pizza crust mix. She comes up to the deli counter and asks Dan whether or not he knows what an omelette egg is. Dan kinda gets this Are You Serious expression on his face and then proceeds to explain how to make an omelette.

She starts laughing when she realizes he's misunderstood her and corrects him, restating her question more clearly. She wanted to know what an "Ommit Egg" was.

Dan, somewhat puzzled by now, looks at where she's pointing on the box and realizes the mistake. Reading through the recipe he gets to the point where it says, "for a healthier option, omit egg."

::facepalms:: It was then that I realized the future of America is going down the drains...

That's not an anti-Valentine's Day sign. It's an anti-love sign!

Valentine's day is great, what with the soldiers getting married against orders and the arrogant christian beheadings...

...what? o.o

::snorts:: Yeah. I especially love the symbolic nature of ripping one's heart out to then give it to the one they love...

Makes Van Gogh look like a sissy. Pansy only cuts off his ear as an expression of love to his girl. Real men rip their hearts out. ::snickers::
