And I would like to remind that "In Finland Valentine's Day is called Ystävänpäivä which translates into "Friend's day". As the name indicates, this day is more about remembering all your friends, not only your loved ones." sourceBig smile

So, Happy Valentine's Day EVEryone Big smile

And in Denmark it's called Valentines Day, which roughly translates into "We're not selling enough flowers and chocolate, let's import yet another commercialized american holiday to fix that" Big smileLolBig smile

St Valentine, the story is that he went around putting money and gifts into the stockings of prostitutes or something right? Thats pretty romantic yeah? Does that mean by buying my wife a gift on Valentines day I am calling her a whoore?

Trust me, I almost know what I'm doing.

Some women actually like that. Who knows, you might kick your relationship to a whole new level by telling her what a dirty little s|ut she is (omg I can't believe s|ut is word filtered! Lame CCP, lame). Oh and by the way I know a good divorce attorney... in case your wife has no sense of humor.

You shouldn't incite people to talk to themselves it's not healthy Blink

Friend zone day would be a step up for most EVE players.

Thanks for the help

... until they find themselves in the "friend zone." Then they'll want to take a step back just to spare themselves.

Even if it translated to "I don't understand how forum categories work" it still wouldn't belong in GD.

Not true, Finns are drunk a lot, they have lots of friends as a result. Hence if you blow a .20 BAL its called "FInnish Cruising Altitude."

In the interests of promoting love "Vadar" has gone on record on a dating website to make people aware of his affections.

I don't know what you people are talking about because we don't celebrate this day in Iceland.

We do have old and traditional husband's day and wife's day.. it's on two separate days though. I think wife's day is next Sunday!

Happy friends day to all my spacebros though - hope you enjoy it Smile

Pish... I see your $80 bottle of wine and raise you a $60 handle of fine aged rum. I too will drink her til she dies... but boy will she put up a fight! I like 'em feisty and potentially lethal!
