Well, ya see, there was this giant fork, and it belonged to a guy named Val. He never went anywhere without that fork and its tines, so it was Val'N'tine. And today's the day he discovered spaghetti!
... Oh i get it! ... wait what is spaghetti? *looks it up in the ships computer* I've nver had spaghetti before! That sure looks good! Does the cosmic bar have any spaghetti??? PLEASE HAVE SOME!!!!
Speaking for the lucky singles, gosh thanks. I feel much less old and bitter now.
I think I'll have that daquiri (hold the pasta).
Seriously, happy Valentine's Day everyone!

I had the privelege of watching a couple having the Valentine's Day fight this afternoon at the restaurant where I work. Complete with guilt, anger, the girl crying, the guy resenting having to be romantic, the each of them going to separate registers and ordering angrily, the long hostile silence as they waited for their food to be ready staring across the table at each other. It made a small evil part of me feel joy and smugness.
Sometimes I love being single.

valentine's day is an obsolete holiday anyway...
maybe once, it was vaugely, useful, or fun, or cool... but... now it's just all about money and expectations.

You say 'money and expectations' ...like it was a bad thing LOL. I like the sound of Venom Day though.
Enjoying Valentine's day is a function of enjoying who you are with (or without). I liked Valentines Day when I was dating romantic men. It was even okay when I was dating average men who would at least give me one day a year when I could have a flower and a hand to hold. The only times I don't like it are when I am alone or when I am with someone who is very selfish and unwilling to give even a gesture.
It's not really about money. It's a matter of being thoughtful and sweet. I like poems and silly gifts. A compliment and a romantic walk cost nothing, but they can be the best gifts if done right. I had a few exes say the VD is a marketing scam, but they were never romantic or kind any other time of the year either. I think it was just an excuse for being cold and cheap.
Valentine's Day does tend to make me miss romance in my life, but it will pass. I really enjoy being single most of the time. I am old and set in my ways. Any guy who would date me now would have to be romantic and something of a saint. I have my own money, but ah, those expectations

In New York City, valentines day means clogged streets, seeing all the couples who would normaly not dare show their faces on the street together, and a load of wierd gift balloons.
