Awesome piece. Personally I never liked Valentine's day but I can see how it might have been nice idea once, even if it was fabricated by Hallmark. I really liked the line about the company (fast food, computers and nuclear weapons for communist countries). All that good stuff. Nice work.-Mixed Metaphors

" (And, most likely, putting my life in danger of angry, voodoo doll-carrying, Valentine's Day-hating mobs."You forgot to end the parenthesis.

Very nice, I remember the good old days of elementary school and how teachers would give each kid a list of who all was in the class so you could get valentines and chocolate for everybody :-)

I'm only a freshman and today is an ice day so I guess I won't see how many people make out in the halls on valentines day until next year. Pity. (note the sarcasm of "Pity.")
