@achewood Irish Nachos are a charming take on the original, but I wonder what Uighur Nachos would be like. A mutton leg on a crisped pita?

Happy Valentine's Day!
May your chocolate consumption rise and sexual urges be satisfied!

I am not sure who should be my valentine. Mostly because I am worried that asking someone to do something with you on Valentine's day comes across a little too "hey, um, I'm in love with you, date me."
I am supposed to go see my friends in Vag-Mons, and I am pretty sure I will not enjoy it. I am kind of worried I will blurt something inappropriate out.

please listen to the Outkast song "Happy Valentine's Day" and feel good about this holiday. Also, realize how fantastic that moment is when the beat stops and there's the sound of a record being spun backwards by hand (I do not know what this is called) and he starts rapping instead of semi-singing. That is, I think, the thing I heard that made me realize that I liked Hip Hop sometimes.

I've always considered this more of an 'occasion' than a holiday.

A good excuse to spend too much on a dinner, and eat too much of it besides. To be extravagant over gestures like flowers, hand-holding, expressions of love.

These are all things I would do every day.

My SO's birthday is on 2/11 so this is always a bit of a challenge. I need to get her two things really close together. Usually she says not to get her anything for Valentine's day because she can't think of anything for me. She's terrible at picking up hints. Frankly I'd be fine with her buying sexy underthings for herself as my present every year.

Valentines schmalentines. Right now it is time for mega-fun activities involving huge banquets and upside-down signs and the color red.

Though chocolate is good. One can never have too much chocolate.

I have a good friend who is a genius.  He married a girl (Mrs. West's best friend) whose birthday is 2/14.  On 2/14.

Brilliant!!!

Does he get her three cards and/or presents that day, or can he get away with one great big one?

My parents' anniversary is 2/11, so they usually go out once for both occasions.  Mom wanted to get married on 2/14 but she didn't want to get married on a Thursday, nor did she want to wait three years for it to fall on a weekend. 

We usually either skip v-day altogether, since my birthday is so close, or sometimes we will go together and buy new item for our grownups-only toybox.  If the mood strikes.

Valentines is my half-birthday, you know.

Granted, this hasn't mattered since I was 9 and a half but... y'know. Still.

I wanted to get married on 1/30, because my birthday is 5/30 and Mrs. Haus's is on 9/30. Then, every four months there would be something. But 1/30 doesn't fall on a Saturday until 2011. We got married on 1/13 instead.
