does anyone know the story behind the valentines day,


Valentine's Day is a holiday celebrated on February 14. It is the traditional day on which lovers express their love for each other; sending Valentine's cards, or offering candy. It is very common to present flowers on Valentine's Day. The holiday is named after two among the numerous Early Christian martyrs named Valentine. The day became associated with romantic love in the circle of Geoffrey Chaucer in High Middle Ages, when the tradition of courtly love flourished.

The day is most closely associated with the mutual exchange of love notes in the form of "valentines." Modern Valentine symbols include the heart-shaped outline and the figure of the winged Cupid. Since the 19th century, handwritten notes have largely given way to mass-produced greeting cards.The mid-nineteenth century Valentine's Day trade was a harbinger of further commercialized holidays in the United States to follow. The U.S. Greeting Card Association estimates that approximately one billion valentines are sent each year worldwide, making the day the second largest card-sending holiday of the year behind Christmas. The association estimates that women purchase approximately 85 percent of all valentines.

Valentine's Day is a Business man's holiday, just like Christmas. Yes it's not supposed to be that way but it is :)

Valentines day is a day for merchants to make a huge amount of money by selling stupid things like teddy bear, flowers, soppy cards and useless knick knacks.

Its also a time when restaurants charge rediculous amounts of money for "aphrodisiac" meals in the hope of drawing in crowds that would otherwise avoid any fancy restaurants.

Happy Valentines

Since there are a lot of complaints about Valentines Day. Obviously its over rated for many people.
We could always muscle up a group of people, get together and have a meal in McDonalds or KFC. I am sure they dont have extortionary price on that day!

Yeah and what's wrong with that huh?!! HUH?!

I'll take my date to McDonalds and order a BigMac combo Super sized with a Mc Royal and double cheeseburger. Then I'll order her a kid's meal and explain that she is too fat and needs smaller meals. I will then call her a cab so he can take her home. Oh and I will let her pay for everything too.

That will be like the most awesomenestest night she will ever have!
