So, I don't think that I understand what today is about yet, really. I'm guessing that it's got something to do with that curse with the candy the other day, though. Or maybe even that mistletoe curse. Some of those were pretty interesting ( Read more... )

it's valentimes(-tines), slightly_screwy, stupid cupid, my secret candy heart, sings4dragons, post-curse, what time is it?

It's a romantic holiday associated with the martyed Saint Valentine, although detailed historical records are lost.

Oh.

So, Saint Valentine, huh? Who was he?

[Voice] slightly_screwy February 16 2009, 01:58:06 UTC

While the name belonged to a number of Roman saints, he's sentimentally portrayed as a priest executed for performing illegal marriages.

So- we're celebrating someone who was killed?

[Voice] slightly_screwy February 16 2009, 04:52:37 UTC

No worries, the holiday has since been... mm, sugar-coated by capitalism, as it were.

[Voice] sitaronthewater February 16 2009, 06:36:45 UTC

Oh. So, what's it mean now?

[Voice] slightly_screwy February 16 2009, 06:55:00 UTC

While it differs according to culture, it is generally a celebration intended for lovers.

For- Oh, alright. Weird.

[Voice] slightly_screwy February 16 2009, 07:07:13 UTC

Weird?

[Voice] sitaronthewater February 16 2009, 20:24:47 UTC

Yeah. I don't think that's something that I really understand. But isn't that sort of thing every day?
