Meh.
I can eat chocolate any day. All the frilly pink stuff perplexes me. What is it about frilly pink plastic that is so enticing to so many people?

In that case, I wouldn't want to get on your bad side

Ahhh, if I want to celebrate my love, i'll do it on my own time, not when some silly holiday dictates.
I'm not indifferent, more amused by it. I do like to look at the over-the-top slushie gifts on sale, and any excuse for chocolate!

+1 on that one
I think that it's somewhat idiotic to force love in that matter. What you do on Valentine's can be done every other 364 days of the year, on any date...
Essentially it's just a forced date for me...
and yes, mmmm, chocolate

No, anyone who is posting here simply isn't indifferent to this thread.
And anyone who's replying me isn't indifferent to me

I despise of this holiday, nothing but a farce. As young children it didn't matter as you could love whoever as they didn't mind but after that your on your own... I'd substitute Valentine's Day for Self Respect Day. Now that is a holiday to celebrate.
Why don't we all celebrate that then instead right now?

I think Beer and Grilled Goat's Cheese Day would be better.
You could do that too. Self Respect Day= Getting drunk, eating all the food you want, not going to work. Just one of those days where you spoil yourself like a gluttonous roman. Too bad you'd probably have to pay for it...

Whats the point if you do that for half the week anyway? Can anyone say "Busman's Holiday"?
