this week, kids, is the final Thursday before Valentines Day. I HATE Valentines Day. It's a manufactured holiday created by Hallmark and chocolate conglomerates to FORCE people into buying sappy gifts for thier "special someone". Not doing so is like a travesty, like you don't love them, and then there's guilt. No. No, I will not play along. If I love someone, I'm gonna tell them that all throughout the year, not just when the greeting card companies tell me to. And what about all those people who DON'T have a "special someone"? they're made to feel inadequate or such because they don't have one. Nope, I refuse to participate.
So, this week, I'm posting the following:
It's a big "Kiss Off"! to the Valentines Day industry. They can just kiss my ass. (ya know, now that I look at it, the pucker kinda looks a little like an asshole....although most of them don't have a well groomed goatee surrounding it. but I digress....) Or, if you wish, this can be a "Hello, I love you all" kiss to the Palace visitors, whether you're here just for HNT or whether you're a regular visitor. Please don't try to kiss the lips though, cause it'll just leave marks on your monitor. (course, with the conparison I made above, I'm not sure anyone would WANT to kiss my lips now. but once more, I digress....)
Sorry, I've been fighting a cold for about a week, and the meds are pretty good...can you tell?
Anyways, HAPPY HNT!

PS: I'm with ya on the V.D thing!!!
I'd kiss your lips sweetie! MUAH! I love you!
I've hated V-Day since about the 3rd grade, so I have to agree. Happy HNT either way.
HAPPY HNT!!!
yes you gotta love the kick my ass things that are out there.
the commericalizatoin of V-Day is a great one.
hope you feel better.
cheers
Good for you for taking a stand against the commercial aspect of Valentines. Like you said, it shouldn't just be confined to one day!
I agree totally. As with most celebrations we Americans follow, the marketing of things like Valentines day and Halloween just sucks. It is all about money. Sick.

Oh man, I kissed the monitor! Off to get some windex! It cures everything you know.
HHNT Polt, sorry Im late!
oooo! this reminds me of a very cool link I found... must find it again (& I'll share it with you when I do). it's anti-VD, very appropriate. I feel the same way as you do about VD.. it's just about commercialism, and can actually cause hurt to those without a 'valentine' to share the day with.
anyway, you do have a lovely pucker, regardless of your comparison :D. I can match your pucker & raise it (or lower it to even grosser levels, as it were) with a quote for the day from my plumber... but I should probably not do it on your blog where it'll gross everybody out :D. it's a bit funny too though, so if you do want to see it you can visit my regular blog at: http://lozwordz.blogdrive.com/archive/424.html
happy hnt Polt!
