Still?  It's January.  Why is every 4th commercial STILL about Christmas?

Beefy

The Valentine's Day crap has already infected the local grocery stores.

Miss Molly

I noticed that too, like the day after xmas.  Mardi Gras crap has hit our stores also.

i hate valentine's day.
if a person is your "sweetheart" why wouldn't you express it throughout the year instead of following the herds of marketing agents on one designated day?
but then again my ex used to make a deal of it... to try and make-up for being a prick all year... ;)

They were putting the Valentines stuff out in Target the day after Christmas.

Jason pointed out the Valentine's stuff in the store last week.

Muh, muh, muh.
we should have kept the quote pyramid up to rape Jessie in the face.

I hate all holidays, let me speak as a raving Evangelical and say Jesus said to only commemorate the Last Supper, tastefully and non-commercially. 

Well I like holidays where you have a long weekend, but not so long that you have to make complex plans.

I like "holidays" when there's good food, good music, and no gift obligations.

1.  St. Patrick's Day (although both Kate and my dad have that as their birthday, it is not a gift holiday)
2.  Cinco de Mayo

That's about it.

I think so, Brain, but how will we get the Spice Girls into the paella?

I like holidays.  I don't watch commercials.

The only time I was pissed that I didn't get anything for Valentine's Day, was when my boyfriend got his female friend a rose because he felt bad that she had nobody to get her anything on Valentine's Day... but yet he got me nothing.

My wife the self-described "feminist" (she's not.  she's really not.) nevertheless expects nice things on V-day.

I hate it.
