Is it a good/legitimate holiday or a holiday made up my greeting card companies for them to make more money (like mother's and father's days)?
I hate V-day for three main reasons... 1) My grandpa commited sucide on V-day in 2002. 2) I'm always single. 3) It's a scam. |

lol. i guess it can be interpreted as two ways. one that is a scam. the concept of valentine's day itself isn't a scam it's just the companies take advantage of our 'glee' and make roses/chocolates/etc ridiculously expensive. i'm not really that keen on valentine's day since i've never had a guy to spend valentine's day w. *sigh* but ... it's something to look forward to. whether or not it's a scam, it's a welcomed break from the norm.

I don't really care. You can choose to celebrate it or not. I mean if you owned a company, wouldn't you want to find some way to earn more money?
By the way... how was Santa Clause fabricated?  Personally I don't really mind V-day. But it is fun when you find out that 5 different girls from different classes have a crush on you. It's awkward reading the v-day cards, but it's riot.

well, I always hate it because I'm lonely on that day..however, if I had someone on that day, it would be my favorite day ever. so I guess it's an appropriate holiday.

Valentine's day is just an holiday that make people feel like
 that they don't have anyone.And to make Hallmark rich. I don't think it should be celebrated anymore. Why wait that one day to show someone you love them? |
